Delta Motion

€149 beginner 352g

★ VERDICT

Head's best beginner option for tennis converts. The teardrop shape feels familiar coming from a tennis racket, and the balance doesn't demand the grip-up adjustment that round shapes require.

Known Issues

✗ Too light and too forgiving to develop power habits

✗ Transitions awkwardly for players who then try a diamond shape
