Updated with Auxetic 2 technology, this iconic racket delivers a combination of control and feel that never gets old
Head makes incremental tweaks to the Prestige Pro while keeping the magical ingredients that have made it one of the game's most cherished player's rackets. Like previous generations, this update is defined by its surgical control and outstanding feel. The control comes in part from the traditional 18x20 string pattern and thin 20mm box beam, giving it laser-like precision on full cuts along with the kind of ball feedback that has attracted generations of players. For 2023 Head has created a slightly more flexible construction, resulting in an even more buttery and controlled feel than the previous generation. That said, this update has greater speed than the Prestiges of yesteryear, making it easier to reset the point with an outstretched flick, whip up spin or react quickly in the front court. The main technology is Auxetic 2 a uniquely flexible material in the yolk and handle to optimise feel. The Prestige Pro also benefits from Graphene 360+ (labeled Graphene Inside), which strengthens the frame in key locations to provide a more powerful and stable hitting experience. Ultimately, with its ultra-predictable targeting and plush feel, this update checks all the right boxes. Experienced players looking for undeniable benefits of traditional player's racket should start here.
