HEAD Boom MP Neon 2025 Tennis Racquet

The HEAD Boom MP Neon 2025 is a special limited-edition frame in HEAD’s explosive Boom racquet series. Released to celebrate the vibrant energy of the US Open and New York City, it features a striking neon lights cosmetic incorporating custom NYC artwork—including skyscrapers, iconic yellow cabs, pizza slices, and the Statue of Liberty. Endorsed on tour by Lorenzo Musetti, it combines a bold design with a sustainable construction built from Torayca bio-circular carbon fibers.

Mechanically, it delivers the exact specifications of the 2025 Boom MP: an unstrung weight of 295 grams, a 100 square-inch head size, and an arm-friendly flex that provides effortless depth, topspin, and comfort.

Performance Profile

1. Easy Power (8.5/10): High. The distinctive Boom head geometry (wider upper hoop) and 24 mm beam profile produce smooth, effortless pace without requiring maximum physical swing output.
2. Spin Access (8.5/10): Excellent. An open 16x19 string pattern paired with enlarged Power Grommets allows substantial string snap-back, making topspin and heavy kick serves easy to generate.
3. Maneuverability (9.0/10): High. At 295 g unstrung with a head-light balance, it swings fast through the air, enabling quick reaction volleys at the net and rapid setups on defensive returns.
4. Comfort & Touch (8.5/10): Plush & Arm-Friendly. Featuring Auxetic 2.0 dampening and a flexible frame rating (~62 RA), it offers a soft impact feel that absorbs harsh frame vibrations.
5. Control & Trajectory (8.0/10): Predictable. The Morph Beam cross-section and Uni Pattern string bed provide a consistent ball launch angle and reliable depth control across the sweet spot.

Key Technologies

1. Auxetic 2.0: Placed in the yoke and handle to optimize real-time impact feedback, offering a direct, connected feel while absorbing unwanted vibrations.
2. Bio-Circular Carbon Construction: A collaboration with Toray utilizing carbon fibers derived from renewable bio-sources (such as recycled cooking oil and forestry waste) to reduce carbon emissions without sacrificing performance.
3. Morph Beam: Blends a square-shaped box beam in the shaft (for feel and control) with a powerful, aerodynamic head shape.
4. Power Grommets & Directional Drilling: Enlarged and angled grommet openings maximize string movement for enhanced sweet spot response and extra trampoline power.
5. Graphene Inside: Positioned at strategic points around the frame to optimize structural stability and energy transfer.

Best Suited For

1. Intermediate to Advanced Players: Hitters looking for a forgiving, high-performance 100 sq. in. racquet that simplifies hitting deep, heavy shots.
2. Aggressive Baseline Players: Players who rely on speed, topspin, and baseline depth to control points.
3. Doubles Specialists: Anyone needing fast handling at the net, swift reaction times, and easy pop on serves.
4. Eco-Conscious & Collector Players: Players wanting a functional piece of tennis art with a reduced environmental footprint and limited-edition appeal.
