Head Radical Pro Ex15 Pickleball Paddle

HEAD Radical Pro EX15 Pickleball Paddle

The HEAD Radical Pro EX15 Pickleball Paddle is designed for advanced, aggressive players who want power, control and a responsive feel across a wide range of shots. Featuring HEAD's innovative TRIFLEX Versatility Core, a micro-forged raw carbon hitting surface and an extended paddle shape, it combines modern construction with the familiar feel of a traditional pickleball paddle.

With a 15 mm thickness, 240 g weight and extended 419 mm length, the Radical Pro EX15 delivers additional reach and attacking power while maintaining the touch and precision needed for competitive play.

TRIFLEX Versatility Core

The standout feature of the Radical Pro EX15 is HEAD's TRIFLEX Versatility Core, which combines three materials to create a responsive, adaptable hitting feel.

PP Honeycomb Centre: Provides the familiar, consistent response associated with traditional pickleball paddle construction.

EPP Support Layer: Works alongside the honeycomb centre to support the paddle's dynamic response.

EVA Outer Perimeter: Completes the three-material construction, contributing to the paddle's flex and overall playing feel.

Together, these materials combine the predictable response of a classic paddle with the dynamic flex of a modern design.

For competitive players, this provides versatility when switching between powerful drives, quick volleys and controlled placement shots.

Micro-Forged Raw Carbon Hitting Surface

The Radical Pro EX15 features a micro-forged raw carbon hitting surface designed to deliver consistent ball response across the entire paddle face.

The carbon surface provides clear feedback at contact, helping players judge pace and placement during demanding rallies.

Whether playing controlled dinks at the kitchen line, blocking powerful drives or accelerating through an attacking shot, the consistent hitting response supports precision and confidence.

Responsive Feel and Manoeuvrability

At 240 g, the Radical Pro EX15 provides a balance between stability and quick handling.

Its 230 mm balance point contributes to the paddle's overall feel, while the extended shape offers additional leverage when driving through the ball.

This combination makes the Radical Pro EX15 particularly suited to players who want to attack confidently while maintaining fast reactions during close-range exchanges.

Who is the HEAD Radical Pro EX15 best for?

The HEAD Radical Pro EX15 is best suited to advanced and competitive pickleball players who favour an aggressive playing style but still require precise control and touch.
