This racquet has been around for several years now, but the Head Liquidmetal Radical remains a competitive racquet for intermediate and advanced players, and one version is actually used by the pros.
While this racquet is a bit on the heavy side, it actually lends itself well to smooth ground strokes as a result. Everything feels steady and firm due to the racquet's weight, and the spin it puts on the ball is great.
Serving with the Head Liquidmetal Radical was fairly comfortable as well. The Midplus doesn't have the most power out of all the similar racquets out there, but rather gives you solid control and a decent amount of spin. A nice sweet spot on the racquet allowed us to attack on the return of serve without a lot of fear of the ball taking off on us.
The Liquidmetal Radical is one of the most successful racquets in tennis history as far as sales are concerned, and much of it has to do with the overall frame and comfort it gives to its owners.
As a bonus, anyone looking for some extra comfort will be happy to know that the over-sized model gives an additional nine square inches. The larger sweet spot makes it all the more easy to hit steady shots.
While most experienced players will generally frown upon an over-sized racquet, we had no qualms with it here. The control that's usually sacrificed with an over-sized racquet didn't seem to be much of an issue this time around.
Serving is extremely comfortable with this racquet. It packs a good deal of power with an easy swing weight. The control is there, and with the head size, the Head Liquidmetal Radical could become a nice weapon for a serve and volley player.
The only drawback we noticed while trying this Over-sized Liquidmetal Radical was it didn't quite generate as much spin as we wanted. This is obviously not a problem if you tend to not hit with a ton of spin, but just don't expect to slice and top spin your way to victory with this racquet.
Both Head Liquidmetal Radicals tested really well for us. We preferred the Midplus because it fit our game better, but the over-sized will find plenty of fans as well. Either Head Liquidmetal Radical will help in a player's advancement in their game.
