The HEAD Xtra Damp Tennis Dampener (Yellow) is an elastomer vibration absorber designed for maximum shock reduction, high-visibility styling, and added playing comfort.

Featuring a distinctive triangular shield design stamped with the iconic HEAD logo, the Xtra Damp is made from an extra-soft rubber composite. The vibrant Yellow colorway offers a bright visual pop that aligns with HEAD's Extreme racquet line.

It installs between the two central main strings directly below the bottom cross string. Its flexible elastomer material deadens string bed chatter immediately upon ball impact, preventing frame flutter from traveling up to the handle.

Performance Profile

  1. Shock Absorption & Arm Protection: Very High. Uses a softer rubber matrix than rigid button dampeners to cushion impact, making it ideal for joint protection against tennis elbow.
  2. Impact Acoustics: Muted & Low-Pitched. Converts high-pitched string "ping" sounds into a solid, low-frequency "thud" without deadening overall string playability.
  3. Tactile Feedback: Smooth. Mutes harsh vibration while preserving enough string bed connection for touch volleys and precise directional control.
  4. Fit & Security: Locked In. Deep side grooves hug the two center main strings tightly, keeping the dampener in place during aggressive topspin rallies and high-speed swings.

Best Suited For

  1. HEAD Extreme Racquet Users: Excellent visual match for yellow and neon-accented frames like the HEAD Extreme series.
  2. Players Prone to Tennis Elbow or Arm Fatigue: Ideal for players looking to reduce frame shock and joint strain.
  3. Stiff String Setups: Perfect for smoothing out the harsh contact feel of modern co-poly or polyester strings.
