HEAD Radical Xceed Pickleball Paddle

The HEAD Radical Xceed Pickleball Paddle is designed for players who want a versatile combination of power, control and spin. Featuring a 15 mm core, fibreglass hitting surface and HEAD's SpinOn technology, it delivers a responsive feel suited to everything from baseline drives to controlled dinks and quick volleys at the kitchen line.

Weighing 235 g, with a 408 mm length and 197 mm width, the Radical Xceed offers balanced handling for players who regularly switch between attacking and defensive shots.

15 mm Core for All-Round Performance

The Radical Xceed features a 15 mm core, designed to balance controlled ball placement with the responsiveness needed for attacking play.

This versatile construction makes it suitable for players who use a variety of shots throughout a rally, from softer dinks and defensive blocks to faster drives and volleys.

The balanced response is particularly useful for players developing an all-round game rather than focusing exclusively on power or control.

Fibreglass Surface with SpinOn Technology

The fibreglass hitting surface provides a responsive feel, helping players generate pace while maintaining control over shot placement.

HEAD's SpinOn technology adds a textured surface designed to help generate spin, giving players more options when shaping their shots.

Whether applying topspin to a drive or controlling an angled return, the combination of fibreglass and SpinOn technology supports a varied playing style.

Balanced Shape and Handling

Measuring 408 mm long and 197 mm wide, the Radical Xceed provides a practical balance of reach and hitting surface width.

Its 235 g weight supports manageable handling during quick volleys and defensive reactions, while the 240 mm balance point contributes to the paddle's overall playing feel.

Compared with longer, narrower paddle shapes, the Radical Xceed offers a slightly shorter and wider profile suited to players who value versatility across the court.

Who is the HEAD Radical Xceed best for?

The HEAD Radical Xceed is best suited to intermediate and developing pickleball players looking for an all-round paddle that balances power, control and spin.

Its 15 mm construction makes it suitable for players who regularly transition between baseline rallies, controlled net exchanges and attacking opportunities.
