HEAD nudges the paddle performance needle in the direction of power, while maintaining precision, with the HEAD Boom Tour EX! The EX indicates its 16.5 inch overall length, which inherently delivers elongated performance and extra reach. Combined with Head’s ThermoTech (uni-body) construction, and a thinner 11mm polypropylene core, the Boom Tour EX provides a satisfying degree of paddle power, comfort, plus excellent durability. A foam injection around the entire perimeter of the Boom Tour EX maximizes the sweet spot size, and enhances paddle stability. To harness that power, and maintain its all-court capability, Head equips the Boom Tour EX with a T700 Raw Carbon Fiber hitting surface treated with an additional bonded layer of SpinFusion Technology which puts this paddle near the range of top tier spin potential. And as with most elongated designs, the Boom Tour EX features a longer 5.5 inch handle, which is perfect for either one or two hands on the paddle, and a standard 4.125 inch grip diameter. Weighing in at just under 8 ounces, the HEAD Boom Tour EX is easy to swing, not to mention easy to modify with extra weight, making it a great paddle choice for intermediate to advanced level players.
