HEAD Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet
The HEAD Boom MP UL 2026 is the ultra-light variant of the Boom family — a 100 sq in frame reduced to 265 g (9.3 oz) for players who demand the absolute maximum in maneuverability and swing ease. It is purpose-built for newer players, seniors, smaller adults, and juniors making their first move toward a full adult frame who want explosive feel and easy power without any sense of heaviness.
- Auxetic 2.0 at Its Most Accessible — Every version of the Boom 2026 line carries HEAD's Auxetic metamaterial construction, and the UL is no exception. The expanding-structure geometry in the throat still absorbs impact vibration and generates that characteristic lively bounce at contact — which matters especially for players who don't yet generate their own racquet-head speed and rely on the frame to return energy.
- Graphene 360+ Keeps the Frame Honest — At 265 g, frames can sometimes feel unstable or flutter on firm hits. HEAD counters this with Graphene 360+ reinforcement at structural stress points, adding just enough stiffness and torsional rigidity to hold the string bed square through contact. The result feels lighter than it plays — you get the swing ease of a super-light frame without the "whippy" sensation that frustrates developing players.
- 100 sq in — Large Sweet Spot, Easy Power — The generous 100 sq in head size gives the UL a forgiving hitting zone that makes solid contact more consistent even as strokes are still being refined. Combined with the 16×19 open string pattern, the frame produces natural topspin and a lively, cushioned response that is encouraging for players still developing timing and technique.
- 265 g / 9.3 oz — Effortless Acceleration — At 265 g strung, the Boom MP UL is among the easiest-swinging adult-length frames on the market. The minimal mass requirement means players with limited strength, joint sensitivities, or early-stage technique can still produce proper swing mechanics and racquet-head speed without compensating with arm tension — a major factor in reducing injury risk for newer players.
- Ideal Player Profile — Beginners to intermediate players (NTRP 1.5–3.0), seniors prioritizing joint comfort, players recovering from arm or elbow injuries, and juniors aged 12+ transitioning from 26-inch junior frames. If arm fatigue has been an issue with heavier setups, the UL's ultra-light weight and Auxetic dampening provide meaningful relief.
- Specifications at a Glance — Head size 100 sq in, length 27 in, strung weight 265 g / 9.3 oz, balance 345 mm / 2 pts HL, stiffness RA 58, string pattern 16×19. Recommended tension 52–62 lbs. Supplied unstrung.
String with a soft multifilament or synthetic gut at 55–60 lbs to maximize comfort and power return — the Boom MP UL pairs beautifully with HEAD Velocity MLT for an exceptionally arm-friendly, effortless-feeling combination.
