UL stands for ‘ultra-lightweight’ and this is a new racquet in the BOOM series that is even lighter, and more powerful, than the MP and MP L models. This fun-loving racquet, which is ideal for beginners who are looking for easy, effortless power and who like to attack, is part of a BOOM series that offers the highest power level in the HEAD range. That explosive power is combined with the touch to play delicate drop shots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoost your power, confidence and fun with the BOOM ALTERNATE MP UL. Endorsed by Coco Gauff and Lorenzo Musetti, the BOOM series is more lifestyle-focused players who enjoy the fun and social side around tennis, but the racquets also come with the latest performance technologies to enhance the powerful touch. Hy-Bor, a material mix that is mainly used in the high-tech aerospace industry, has been added to the shaft to improve the perceived stability and solid impact feel. For optimal power and touch, a new AI string pattern was created using artificial intelligence, along with subjective feedback from players. The Auxetic 2.0 technology ensures a more connected feel to the ball while the beam and grommet sets are designed to enhance the power and the directional drilling provides extra touch and comfort.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• New ultra-light racquet for beginners offering powerful touch, fun and confidence\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Lighter than the BOOM ALTERNATE MP and BOOM ALTERNATE MP L for even more power\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Designed for players wanting easy access to power and for attacking players\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Part of the BOOM series for more lifestyle-focused players who enjoy the fun and social side around tennis\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Hy-Bor enhances perceived stability and the solid impact feel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Auxetic 2.0 technology for a more connected feel to the ball\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• New AI string pattern was created using artificial intelligence, along with subjective feedback from players, for optimal power and touch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Beam and grommet sets are designed to enhance the power\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Directional drilling for extra touch and comfort\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Endorsed by Coco Gauff and Lorenzo Musetti\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Tonal purple design – purple is Coco’s favorite color – for a striking and progressive look\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"collapsible-content ng-scope\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row ng-scope\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 ng-scope\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 ng-scope\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT (UNSTRUNG): 255 g \/ 9.0 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRING PATTERN: 16\/19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHEAD SIZE: 645 cm² \/ 100 in²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBALANCE: 330 mm \/ 0.5 in HL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLENGTH: 685 mm \/ 27.0 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBEAM: 24 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRacquet comes unstrung.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HEAD","offers":[{"title":"L1 (4 1\/8 in \/ 105 mm)","offer_id":48908703367307,"sku":"232426","price":4899.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false},{"title":"L2 (4 1\/4 in \/ 108 mm)","offer_id":48908703400075,"sku":"232426","price":4899.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/5578\/1515\/files\/BoomULAlternate2.jpg?v=1770738244","url":"https:\/\/www.head.co.za\/products\/head-boom-mp-ul-2026-tennis-racquet-copy","provider":"HEAD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
