HEAD Radical 135 Slimbody Squash Racket
The HEAD Radical 135 Slimbody is a high-performance squash racket built for advanced and tournament-level players. It’s designed for use on indoor courts where control, precision, and quick reactions near the wall are critical. Players seeking manoeuvrability without sacrificing stability will find this racket a reliable choice.
Control and Precision in Every Shot
Weighing 135 grams, the Radical Slimbody offers more mass than the 120 model, giving better accuracy and shot control without slowing down swing speed. Its thin 16mm aerodynamic beam allows you to reach balls near the sidewall quickly, making tight retrievals and aggressive shot placement easier.
Hy-Bor technology enhances perceived frame stability, helping maintain confidence when executing fast volleys or power shots. This combination of lightweight design and structural reinforcement supports advanced players in maintaining precision under pressure.
Design and Feel
The racket’s asymmetrical frame, featuring bold pops of orange, isn’t just for looks—it contributes to a modern, performance-focused feel that complements aggressive play. Endorsed by Leonel Cardenas and Rui Soares, it meets the demands of professional-level squash while remaining playable for committed club players aiming to refine control and accuracy.
The balance is even, giving consistent response across drives, drops, and volley shots. Its 475 cm² head size provides an ideal sweet spot for controlled attacking play without sacrificing feel.
