Berrettini is one of the most aggressive players in the current lot of players. His aggressive game combined with decent court movement gives him the room to hit his desired shots with ease. However, playing 100% aggressive with a 318gms strung racquet seems to be some miscalculation. Analyzing carefully, the Italian compliments his aggressive game with just the right pinch of spin. That is where the role of the racquet’s Spin shaft technology comes in picture. The technology helps the player control the amount of spin he wants to put in while hitting a shot.
Apart from these two main USP’s of the racquet, the Head Graphene 360+ Extreme MP, like the previous versions, continues to deliver a massive impact and stability while hitting groundstrokes and serves.
