When we tested the HEAD Boom Team (2022), it did not take long until we realised this racket offered a completely different feel from any other HEAD rackets. The power generation we got from this racket was incredible, and due to the slightly different head shape, it was very forgiving. This makes this a great racket for players who have just started out, as well as intermediate players who are looking for a racket that suits an aggressive game. 

A couple of our testers noted that the feel and "pop" of the HEAD Boom Team (2022) was really addictive, as well as comfortable to play with. Another aspect of the racket that our testers really appreciated was the stability it provided. This can normally be difficult to find, especially fi you're looking for a racket that provides good power, is forgiving, and is light. Head has definitely managed to achieve this with the HEAD Boom Team (2022). 

We think this is a great choice for players who are looking to invest in a racket that will last a long time. It is easy to play with, but will not become uncontrollable as you improve. It also feels very plush and comfortable, which makes it suitable for a variety of different players. 

HEAD Boom Team (2022) Specifications:

HEAD Boom Team (2022) Technologies:

Auxetic > Auxetic constructions contain unique qualities. It is a soft fibre that when put under pressure, or "pulled" the fibres widens and stiffens up. This means that when you're playing, the racket offers touch and feel on less powerful shots, while providing more power and stability on more powerful shots, such as a serve or aggressive baseline shots. The bigger the force, the greater the Auxetic reaction. 

Graphene 360+ > This technology has been used by HEAD for the last few years. Adding graphene around the frame and in the throat strengthens the racket. As a result of this, you gain more stability, and optimise energy transfer, which means that more of the energy will go back into the ball, rather than travel up your arm.

Uni Pattern > This is a uniform string pattern which means that the ball trajectory will be more consistent and reliable, and means that the racket will be more forgiving. 

Morph Beam > This racket benefits from an unusual combination of an elongated box-beam throat, often associated with more controlled rackets, and a powerful head, giving you the best of both worlds. 

Directional Drilling > This technology increases the power as well as the sweet-spot, and creates a comfortable, plush feel upon impact

Power Grommets > The enlarged grommets allow for more string movement. This means that upon impact you can get more contact time between the ball and strings, and means that the strings will snap back into place after hitting the ball. This will allow for more spin and power
