The Radical Team 15 2026 is the entry point to HEAD's new Radical 15 family, which brings the micro-forged raw carbon face at a more accessible price. The 15 mm Triflex core mixes polypropylene honeycomb with EPP and EVA foams, and the traditional (non-thermoformed) construction prioritizes control and comfort. It has a standard 16 x 7.75 inch shape, an average weight of 8.3 oz, a 5 inch handle, a 4 1/8 grip and edge protection. The slightly rough face helps with spin and the large sweet spot gives confidence to those who are developing.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%56
Approval from players35%65

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
