HEAD Pickleball Paddle Radical Team15 2026

The Head Pickleball Paddle Radical Team 15 2026 is built for players who are entering the modern game and want a reliable, versatile, and easy-to-play paddle that delivers consistent performance and confident feel across the full surface of the face. Sharing the traditional rectangular shape with the PRO15 and TOUR15 models from the same Radical family, the Team 15 brings the quality and design language of the Radical line to a more accessible level, offering balanced power, reliable touch, and lasting comfort from the first match to the last. It is an ideal choice for intermediate players looking for a trustworthy all-court tool that supports their development and keeps up with their improving game.

Material and Construction

The hitting face is constructed from a micro-forged raw carbon surface, a high-performance material designed to deliver ultimate touch and control. The raw and uncoated surface of the micro-forged carbon allows the paddle to grip the ball more effectively at the moment of contact, generating superior spin and enabling players to execute lifted and sliced shots with greater ease and precision than coated or smoother face constructions. The dense micro-layer structure of the raw carbon provides strength and precision across the full face, delivering a solid and consistent ball response on every shot regardless of where on the face the contact is made. This connection between the raw carbon surface and the ball creates an exceptionally responsive feel that keeps the player fully in touch with every swing.

Performance Benefits

The rectangular shape of the Radical Team 15 provides an enlarged and generous hitting zone that enhances both forgiveness and consistency across all shot types. The wider body of the rectangular design expands the effective surface area of the face, giving players more reliable contact across the full face and reducing the frequency of off-centre mishits during fast and reactive play. Excellent control is delivered across the entire surface, supporting accurate placement and confident shot execution from every position on the court. At 15mm thickness and 235g, the paddle provides the right balance of touch, responsiveness, and manageable power for intermediate players who want versatility and ease of play as their primary performance priorities.

Ergo Grip Handle

The exclusive Head Ergo Grip is an ergonomic foam handle designed to deliver consistency, comfort, and enhanced feel throughout every match. The foam construction adapts naturally to the hand, providing a secure and relaxed grip that supports control and reduces fatigue across extended sessions. The 127mm grip length and 235mm balance point give the paddle a natural and stable feel in the hand that suits a wide range of playing styles and grip preferences, from two-handed backhands to quick hand exchanges at the kitchen line.
