Head YouTek tennis racquets are the pinnacle of advancement. The personalization and combination of technologies has made a wide selection of performance specific racquets for players of all levels.
Head YouTek tennis racquets have been a major player in the tennis revolution. New designs and innovative technologies have put Head tennis racquets in the hands of the world’s top tennis players.
The Head YouTek line of tennis racquets are outfitted with molecularly adaptive and situational responsive materials which create a more powerful, precise and personal experience on the court.
Innegra
Integrated into the graphite-carbon matrix, the melt-spun, ultra-lightweight Innegra fiber crates a molecular blend that is lighter and tougher than any racquet material ever used. As a result, the Head YouTek frame has greater stability and 17 percent less vibration for a more responsive and precise tennis racquet. Added benefits of the Innegra hybrid composite is a longer lasting more durable frame.
d3o
Integrated in the lay-up and positioned in the shaft of Head YouTek tennis racquets, d3o (dilatant foam) smart material is a futuristic new material that possesses abnormal behavioral characteristics during impact. The dynamic responsiveness of d3o makes it a prefect material for the Head YouTek family of tennis racquets, it adapts to your playing style. On aggressive, high-speed shots, the d3o molecules lock together, instantly creating stiffness throughout the entire frame, for maximum return power. On slow speed slice or drop shots, the d3o molecules absorb the impact, for a softer, more precise return.
Teflon
Friction between strings and grommet during ball impact results in energy loss and a reduction of power. The Head Teflon polymer coated grommets reduce friction and retain power by allowing the strings to slide through the grommets. Strings moving without friction last longer and respond better under pressure. Teflon grommets assist in a more even and consistent string tension during the stringing process.
