HEAD Gravity Pro Padel Racket
The HEAD Gravity Pro Padel Racket is a premium control-focused racket designed for tournament and advanced players who prioritise precision, touch and consistency. Featuring a round head shape, 365 g weight and lower balance point, the Gravity Pro combines manoeuvrability with a generous sweet spot for confident shot placement.
With Auxetic 2.0 technology, Control Foam and a hybrid carbon fibre and fibreglass hitting surface, the Gravity Pro provides responsive feedback and a controlled feel during defensive exchanges, volleys and attacking opportunities.
The Gravity Pro features a round head shape, designed to provide a larger effective sweet spot and a more forgiving hitting response.
This makes it particularly useful for players who rely on accurate placement, consistent ball contact and controlled shot selection rather than outright power.
The racket's updated construction is lighter and has a lower balance point than the previous version, improving manoeuvrability during quick exchanges at the net and defensive situations near the back glass.
Hybrid Carbon Fibre and Fibreglass Hitting Surface
The Gravity Pro features a hybrid woven hitting surface combining carbon fibre and fibreglass.
Carbon fibre contributes responsiveness and structural stability, while fibreglass adds a more flexible feel during ball contact.
Together, these materials create a balanced hitting response that supports both precision and touch.
For players who regularly vary their shots between defensive placement, controlled volleys and attacking strokes, this hybrid construction provides versatility without losing the racket's control-focused character.
Auxetic 2.0 Technology for Enhanced Feedback
The Gravity Pro uses HEAD's Auxetic 2.0 technology, designed to improve the connection between the player and the ball.
The construction responds to impact, providing more immediate feedback through the racket.
This enhanced feel helps players judge ball contact during quick volleys, defensive returns and precision shots, supporting confident shot selection throughout a rally.
Spin Surface Technology for Greater Ball Grip
The Gravity Pro features Spin Surface technology, which adds texture to the hitting surface to improve grip on the ball.
This helps players generate spin during sliced volleys, controlled overheads and angled shots.
For advanced players who use spin to manage ball trajectory and create difficult returns, the textured surface provides additional options without changing the racket's emphasis on control.
Who is the HEAD Gravity Pro Padel Racket best for?
The HEAD Gravity Pro is best suited to advanced and tournament-level padel players who prioritise control, precision and manoeuvrability.
Its round shape, lower balance point and Control Foam core make it particularly suitable for players who build points through accurate placement, controlled defensive shots and consistent volleying.
The hybrid hitting surface and Auxetic 2.0 technology also appeal to players who value feedback and touch when varying their shot selection.

How does the HEAD Gravity Pro compare?
The HEAD Gravity Pro is designed around control, precision and consistent ball placement, making it a different option from HEAD's power-focused Extreme and Coello rackets.
