Featuring thermoformed construction, a micro-forged raw carbon hitting surface and an extended paddle shape, it delivers a stable, responsive feel for players who want advanced performance without the price of a tour-level model.

Thermoformed Construction for Stability
The Radical Tour EX15 features thermoformed construction, creating a solid, durable frame designed to improve stability during ball contact.
This construction helps the paddle maintain a consistent response across different shots, particularly when blocking, driving or returning faster balls.
For players who combine attacking and defensive play, the added stability supports more predictable shot placement and confidence during demanding rallies.
Balanced Feel and Manoeuvrability
Weighing 245 g, the Radical Tour EX15 combines a substantial, stable hitting feel with the manoeuvrability needed for fast exchanges.
Its 240 mm balance point contributes to the paddle's overall handling characteristics, while the extended shape provides leverage for attacking shots.
This combination makes the Tour EX15 suitable for players who want to generate pace without sacrificing the touch required for controlled net play.
Who is the HEAD Radical Tour EX15 best for?
The HEAD Radical Tour EX15 is best suited to intermediate to advanced pickleball players who want a versatile paddle with a stable feel, extended reach and a responsive carbon hitting surface.
It is particularly suitable for players who combine powerful drives with controlled dinks, volleys and placement shots.
The thermoformed construction and extended shape make it a practical option for players looking to progress into higher-performance pickleball equipment without moving to the more expensive Radical Pro EX15.
