What players say
Reviewers describe the Boom Pro (98 sq in, 11.5 oz, 16x19) as a forgiving, easy-power modern player's frame with a big sweetspot from its teardrop head shape. Testers like the effortless spin and pace, especially on serve, but several note it trades away some precision and penetrating heaviness compared to control-oriented frames like the Prestige or Radical.
Best for
- Intermediate to advanced baseline players
- Players wanting easy power and spin
- Serve-and-forehand oriented games
- Those upgrading from a stiffer, less forgiving frame
Pros
- Easy access to power and spin with a big, forgiving sweetspot
- Comfortable, arm-friendly feel from Auxetic construction
- Strong serve performance, described as fast and easy to snap down on
- Good maneuverability and stability at net
Cons
- Less precise than dedicated control frames like the Prestige or Radical
- Doesn't produce as penetrating or heavy a ball as some testers wanted
- Feel can be firm and somewhat muted on off-center hits
- Some players wanted more mass or swingweight against big hitters
Voices
— Mark, TW Playtest Team, Web
Easy, yet controllable power, a high degree of comfort, great spin potential.
— Chris, TW Playtest Team, Web
Not as precise as my go-to racquets and also doesn't hit the penetrating heavy ball.
— Michelle, TW Playtest Team, Web
Loads of power and spin; fun to create angles and execute quick strike points!
— Troy, TW Playtest Team, Web
The feel of this racquet is a bit firm on off-center hits but also muted.
— Jon Levey, Tennis.com, Web
Impressive thump for a 98" that can get a bit launchy on slower, finesse shots.
— Jonas Eriksson, Tennisnerd.net, Web
The most exciting HEAD racquet in the current line-up, balanced and fun to use.
