FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the 13 mm core?
The 13 mm core is designed for a crisp, responsive feel that prioritizes power and pop over the muted feel of thicker 16 mm paddles.
Is this paddle good for beginners?
While accessible, it is specifically built for players who want to utilize spin and power, making it an excellent choice for intermediate players looking to upgrade.
Does the elongated handle affect balance?
Yes, the 139.7 mm handle length shifts the balance point (235 mm), which is tuned to provide more leverage for spin and two-handed swings.
How do I maintain the spin capability?
Keep the hitting surface clean from dirt and ball residue; the SpinOn technology is built into the fiberglass surface, so a clean surface is all that is needed.
Can I use this paddle for doubles?
Absolutely. The extended reach of the elongated shape is highly beneficial for covering the court in doubles play.
What is the weight of the HEAD Boom XCEED?
The paddle weighs 225 grams, which is a standard weight that offers a good blend of maneuverability and stability.
Troubleshooting
Excessive vibration during impact
Check that your grip is wrapped tightly and consider adding an extra layer of over-grip to dampen shock.
Surface feels slippery or loses spin
Wipe the paddle face with a clean, damp microfiber cloth to remove embedded court debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your HEAD Boom XCEED remains in peak condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Storage: Always store the paddle in a climate-controlled environment. Avoid leaving it in a hot car, as extreme heat can degrade the core materials.
- Cleaning: Wipe the fiberglass surface with a slightly damp cloth after play to remove ball fuzz and court dust. This maintains the effectiveness of the SpinOn surface treatment.
- Grip Maintenance: Over-grip can be applied over the existing Comfort Grip if you prefer a thicker handle or need extra moisture absorption during humid matches.
- Edge Guard: The paddle features a perimeter edge guard; inspect it periodically for cracks, though do not attempt to remove it as it protects the core integrity.
