First Look at the New Radical Grit Paddles from HEAD @PickleballCentral

Uploaded January 2024 | Updated September 2026, 2 hours ago

HEAD sent us their new Radical Grit paddles to try, and we hit the courts with Olivia (3.0 player), Maxwell (3.5 player), and Joseph (4.5 player) to get a sense of how they played and who they are for. Overall we found them to be solid all-court paddles with ideal weighting for players coming from tennis. As always, the handles were premium, and we especially liked the quality graphics and colors paired with impressive grit similar to what you would find on a raw carbon fiber paddle.
