The rich legacy of this cult Radical racket series from Head - which came onto the market in the early 1990s and was still very popular more than 30 years later - was combined with the latest innovations to develop the most radical radical so far.
Wherever you are on the pitch and whatever you want to do, you can play fiery tennis with a versatile racket that was upgraded with the Auxetic 2.0 technology for additional stability and spin as well as a crisp game of play. The Radical 2025 series , which is supported by Taylor Fritz, Matteo Arnaldi, Nuno Borges, Zhizhen Zhang, Sloane Stephens and Sam Schröder, has been developed for playful players who play in all places and like to let it crack.

At the age of 66, life begins, at the age of 66, you enjoy it. This has already sang Udo Jürgens, knowing that there is a lot of true things in his now legendary song line and that a lot of motivation for the "senior age" is transported. Joerg Pfuhl that the tennis courts of the world prove that even at the age of 60 in tennis is far from over He wrote a wonderful book about his tennis career, in which he really got started after leaving his career as a successful publishing manager: second serve is his first work published by Edel Sports Verlag. The book title could not have been more apt. How Joerg played in the seniors' tennis world rankings at the age of 60, why after his first serve had to follow a second serve and why he discovered completely new sides and talents, of which the 208-page work acts. Wonderful to read, motivating, animating to smile as well as to think - and not just in terms of tennis! The book is a source of inspiration not only for prospective and more or less active (tennis) seniors, but for everyone who is before the last phase of life. Look forward to our book review.
College tennis - that is currently concerned with me and our family. After our daughter Mia went to the United States as a student two years ago, we are in the middle of the "onboarding" process for the second time. Our son Tom will also pack his tennis matters in August to open a college in Alabama. Reason enough to talk to Dennis Eichner, dad of 17-year-old Leni Eichner from Meerbusch. Leni will also graduate from high school in the spring and will fly to college tennis with a scholarship to the USA, so that the two are currently facing exactly the same questions and challenges as we do. An exchange of experiences among parents , which Dennis and I find very valuable. Even if we go through the process for the second time, an exchange of experiences is extremely valuable. It is better and better open up the large wide world of college tennis and at the same time shows that there are some differences. You will soon find out in a separate blog post how the whole thing works at Tom. Today everything revolves around Dennis and Leni and her way to the USA . Let's go!
