Innovative dual-tube construction separates and optimizes performance and feel within a single frame.

KENNELBACH, Austria, April 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — HEAD unveils SQUARED, a tennis racquet platform that delivers both power and comfort through dual-tube construction, solving a key performance trade-off.

SQUARED’s dual-tube architecture separates power from comfort in a single frame. The outer tube, using Torayca™ T800S carbon fiber, optimizes stability and power. The foam-filled Comfort Tube, running from grip to main string bed, absorbs vibration and reduces arm strain.

By engineering these elements independently, SQUARED delivers both benefits at once, eliminating the need for players to choose between feel and power.

“SQUARED represents a new category of racquet construction,” said Felix Schumann, Director of Product for HEAD USA and Canada. “By separating power and comfort into two distinct systems within the same frame, we’ve created a racquet that allows players to swing more freely while reducing the physical impact of each shot. It’s designed to support performance over time, not just in a single moment.”

SQUARED sets the pace with one of the most headlight balances in HEAD’s lineup, unleashing lightning-fast handling and effortless swings. Internal testing reveals players can push harder and last longer, with muscle activity dialed down for legendary endurance.

A 16×18 string pattern and directional drilling enhance power, responsiveness, and consistency for various playing styles.

SQUARED features a premium design with a holographic gray finish that shifts between magenta and teal under different lighting conditions.

Designed for players of all levels, SQUARED sets a new standard in racquet performance by combining power, comfort, and playability in one platform.
