this raquet is very good as i expected... nothing more to say than the rating and that is one of the best brands in tennis raquets

I have been playing tennis for 24 years (I'm 38), I play twice a week and I must say this stick isn't for me, you need to create your own power (a lot of it) to use it, it feels stiff, I'm sure it is a great players racquet but it is not for the club player. I bought the new Head Microgel Extreme 09, this stick is consider a players racquet by Head but it feels much more powerful and soft, of course you don't feel the same control that has the Radical but it is much better for my game. Conclusion: If you are 21 and you are a serious tennis player (4,5 level or more) go for it, if not try another stick.

I don't usually belive in items that are on sale, mostly because I've been scam a couple of times. This time I was broke and needed a good racket for de cash that i had....it's a offer that has satisfied me.

Mid-plus size makes this racquet a perfect choice for those who aren't beginners anymore, yet has a long way to be advanced. Not very light but very effecient swings. Easy to control. I first had some hard times with my serves but after some practice this is not an issue. I instantly felt better with my ground strokes. It's worth the price.

This Racquet was great buy and I am glad I did it. For me, it was perfect weight and I instantly saw an improvement in my game. I find it easy generate spin, hit hard shots, not overshoot the court or hit it right in the net. One thing I think this racquet does better than any other I have ever seen or played with is that I am able to hit it with reckless abandon when my contact point is high like between my chest and shoulder. I am easily able to position my shots on the court. My only minor complaint is that it is a little top heavy and when you get really tired you can't generate as much head speed.

Quality was great. I am a mid level player that is getting back into the swing. I may have to restring for my own playing style. However, this is a great raquet. light with a big sweet spot.

Weight is a little heavy for my style, however its weight can be helpful if you need more power on your serve. Its string lose tension pretty quick, kind of disappointed.

I was very enthusiastic about learning to play tennis, and researched what racquet to buy. The Head Liquidmetal 8 racquet was just about the only racquet for beginners that was reviewed. Well that's not a problem, that's efficient because this is the only racquet to buy if you are a beginner who is serious about learning to play. From the moment I held it, I knew that it was fabulous and it hasn't let me down in actual play. I LOVE THIS RACQUET. I bought it through Amazon from Midwest Sports and also couldn't have been happier with the service.

This racquet is great for someone like me, who is athletic, but beginning tennis. It it responsive so I can try so shots as I improve, but it has good power behind it when I miss hit.

This racket is light, but firm and powerful, and I've been playing with it for years. I can highly recommend it.

Having order the liquidmetal head Racquet from Midwest sport from America, i am very impressed of their service delivery. As promised, the item was delivered wwithin the agreed time frame and installed a level of confidence in me regarding purchase of product from countrys outside of the uk.. The product, on up to date usage, it's good, i have notice improvement in several aspect of my game and adequately designed to absorb shocks. all in all i am satisfied with the product and extremely satisfied with the service. Thanks Midwest sport..

at first i had a lot of difficulty with this racket because the sweet spot is smaller than with bigger, lighter rackets. however now that i have gotten used to it, i love it. the heaviness of the racket has helped my serve tremendously, making it much faster and lower. the one thing is, you can't be lazy about swinging it, you must make a full swing otherwise you will hit on the outer edge of the racket which doesn't have much bounce and you will hit into the net which is what i did constantly the first 3 times i played on it. this racket it great because it forces you to become a better tennis player, when you connect on the sweet spot with this racket it is amazing how fast and low the shot is. i highly recommend it just don't be discouraged at first because it is a lot different than beginner rackets, once you adjust your swing to the racket the results are awesome.

I haven't bought a new racket since high school tennis team (over 15 years ago) and treated myself to this racket. It is exactly what I would hope for in a racket! I am an intermediate player who serves and swings hard. This racket gives me an extra boost and good control... and it looks and feels cool! It's light yet substantial. I highly recommend it!

I have one HEAD Intelligence iTour racquet and two of these racquets and am currently looking to buy a third. It is a good all around racquet for intermediate players. Has a nice weight balance, but for beginners, you might want a lighter racquet (see Liquidmetal 8). This is a good racquet for those who love to volley like me because it is light enough to maneuver at the net, while not extremely light where you lose all of your power at the baseline. I wasn't too pleased with the built-in vibe-damp, so I bought a couple of extra vibe-damps and stuck one in each of my racquets. This made the racquet slightly more head-heavy, which helped my baseline game. I have an extremely short backswing, so the weight distribution of this racquet is perfect for my swing. Overall this is a really good racquet for beginners and most intermediate players. Try holding a racquet in a store first though and swing it around a couple of times to get a feel for it. Here is a link with more technical details on the racquet. [...]

Don't have time to write a long-long review. In all, it's a high quality racket, but not good for beginners as its size is relative small
