HEAD Radical Pro 2024 Pickleball Paddle

For players who want more than a basic beginner paddle.

The HEAD Radical Pro 2024 is built for players ready to start with something a little better — offering stronger power, improved spin potential and a more premium overall feel than entry-level starter paddles.

It’s an excellent option for players who know they’ll be playing regularly and want a paddle they can grow into.

Why We Chose It

We wanted a clear step-up option above true beginner paddles without pushing players straight into premium carbon fibre pricing.

The Radical Pro stood out for its:

• noticeably more refined construction than basic starter paddles
• stronger spin potential thanks to HEAD’s SpinOn surface texture
• easy power from the fibreglass face
• balanced feel that suits a wide range of playing styles

It’s ideal for players who want a better first paddle from day one.

Who It Suits

Ideal for:

• committed beginners
• players wanting a more premium first paddle
• improving social players not ready for high-end carbon paddles
