The HEAD Xtra Damp Tennis Dampener (White) is a performance-oriented, soft-rubber vibration dampener engineered to deliver superior shock absorption, maximum arm comfort, and clean impact acoustics.
Featuring a distinctive triangular/shield-like shape, the Xtra Damp is made from an ultra-soft elastomeric silicone rubber compound. The White colorway provides a clean, classic aesthetic that contrasts nicely against darker string beds or complements light racquet cosmetics like the HEAD Speed, Radical, or Extreme lines.
It sits securely between the two central main strings directly beneath the lowest cross string. Its ultra-flexible formulation is designed to absorb high-frequency kinetic energy and dissipate string bed chatter instantly upon ball contact.
Performance Profile
- Shock & Vibration Absorption: Very High. Crafted from a noticeably softer elastomer than standard rigid button dampeners, drastically reducing frame chatter and shock transfer.
- Arm Protection & Comfort: Enhanced. Helps cushion initial impact feedback, making it an excellent accessory for players managing or preventing wrist strain, forearm fatigue, or tennis elbow.
- Impact Acoustics: Deep & Muted. Subdues high-pitched metallic string ringing into a solid, low-frequency "thud."
- Fit & Stability: Secure. Wide side grooves clamp firmly around the two central main strings, remaining locked in place through fast swing speeds and heavy topspin.
Best Suited For
- Players Prone to Joint Strain: Great choice for players seeking extra vibration dampening to cushion stiff frames or strings.
- Stiff Co-Poly & Hybrid String Setups: Complements polyester strings by taming the harsh, pingy feel without deadening string playability.
- Clean & Classic Aesthetics: Ideal for players looking for a high-performance dampener in a neutral white finish to match any string setup.
