The HEAD Xtra Damp Tennis Dampener (Orange / Black-Orange) is an elastomer vibration absorber designed for high-frequency shock suppression, eye-catching color accents, and player arm protection.

Featuring a signature triangular shield design stamped with the iconic HEAD logo, the Xtra Damp is constructed from an extra-soft elastomer rubber material. The Orange colorway (often styled in a vibrant solid orange or black/orange dual-tone) adds a bold cosmetic flair that pairs exceptionally well with HEAD's Radical frame lineup or dark-colored string beds.

It installs between the two central main strings directly beneath the lowest cross string. Its extra-flexible rubber formulation dissipates string bed chatter instantly upon impact, helping buffer frame flutter before it reaches the player's wrist and forearm.

Performance Profile

  1. Shock Absorption & Joint Relief: Very High. Made from a noticeably softer rubber matrix than standard rigid button dampeners, drastically cushioning ball contact to reduce arm fatigue and lower the risk of tennis elbow.
  2. Impact Acoustics: Muted & Solid. Mutes high-pitched metallic string pinging, substituting it with a deep, solid sound on sweet-spot impact.
  3. Tactile Connection: Smooth & Clean. Deadens unwanted background frame flutter while leaving enough direct feedback for fine touch on drop shots, volleys, and slices.
  4. Fit & Stability: Locked In. Deep side channels wrap tightly around two central main strings, ensuring the dampener stays secure during heavy topspin rallies and high swing speeds.

Best Suited For

  1. HEAD Radical & Orange-Accent Frame Users: A sharp visual match for orange-accented racquets like the HEAD Radical line.
  2. Players Prone to Tennis Elbow or Arm Strain: Excellent choice for players seeking extra shock absorption to cushion frame recoil and joint stress.
  3. Stiff String Setups: Ideal for softening the harsh impact feel of modern stiff co-poly or polyester hybrid strings.
