Head’s topspin racket, a 300 g MP for players who build points with heavy forehands.
Line it up against the Pure Aero and VCORE 100 if your game is built on topspin rallies. This profile covers the MP only.
Check you can still control depth on a full swing. The Pro and MP XL are different rackets, so don’t mix them up.

Editorial shortlist based on published frame class and weight; compare on court.
Babolat’s topspin racket, for baseliners who like the ball to dip into the court.
£250.00Babolat · unstrung · checked 2026-10-06Trade-off: A spin-focused frame still needs a full swing. Demo it alongside a more neutral racket and compare control on flatter shots, returns and volleys.
Wilson’s topspin racket: 300 g, with a 99 sq in head and a 16×20 string pattern.
£187.90Tennis-Point · unstrung · checked 2026-10-06Trade-off: Your swing and strings still do most of the work. Judge it on depth and placement, not on the spin label.
Yonex’s topspin racket for baseliners: 300 g with a 100 sq in head.
£199.99All Things Tennis · unstrung · checked 2026-10-06Trade-off: A spin racket won’t swing for you. Check that you can still place flatter shots with confidence.
Use the manufacturer range above where it is published. Agree the material, thickness and starting tension with your stringer; there is no universal setup for this frame.
Start with your string problem →Check bumper, hoop, throat, grommets and grip. Structural doubt overrides a cosmetic grade. Include replacement parts and a restring in the total.
Check a used listing →These are other reviewers’ findings, not our own play tests. Their strings, tension and playing style may differ from yours.
A clear step up on the 2024 model: easy spin and power in a forgiving, predictable package.
Where they differ: Comfort: Tennisnerd had no arm concerns with a soft set-up, while Tennis Express says it now runs firmer than most by design.
Suits: Intermediate to advanced players after easy power and spin in a 100.
