FAQs
Is this racket suitable for beginners?
The Radical Pro 2026 is specifically designed for advanced players. Beginners may find the 370-gram weight and firm hitting surface challenging to control.
What is the primary benefit of the teardrop shape?
The teardrop shape provides a versatile balance between the power of a diamond racket and the control of a round racket.
How often should I replace the safety cord?
You should inspect the cord before every match and replace it immediately if you notice any fraying or signs of wear.
Does the racket come with a cover?
Please check with your specific retailer, as packaging contents can vary by region.
What is Auxetic 2.0?
It is a material technology integrated into the racket that reacts to the force of the ball, providing clearer feedback and a more responsive feel to the player.
Troubleshooting
Excessive vibration during impact
Check that the Soft Cap+ assembly is securely tightened and that the grip wrap is not interfering with the base.
Racket feels sluggish during volleys
Verify that your overgrip is not too thick, as adding excess weight to the handle can alter the balance point.
Loose safety cord
Use the interchangeable cord feature to swap the existing cord for a new one, ensuring it is locked securely into the Soft Cap+ mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your racket, store it in a temperature-controlled bag away from direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can degrade the foam core. The racket features an interchangeable cord system; ensure the cord is properly seated in the Soft Cap+ base before matches. Regularly inspect the frame for hairline cracks or structural damage after high-impact collisions with walls or fences. To clean the hitting surface, wipe it down with a slightly damp, non-abrasive cloth to remove dust and court residue.
