HEAD squash racket Speed 120 SB is intended for anyone who needs a light and fast racquet that offers you a lot of power.
In addition to the closed throat and extended strings, it also employs two HEAD technologies: Octagonal Power and Auxetic 2.0.
It has the same excellent control as the other models in the Speed series, with greater power thanks to the closed throat and consequently longer strings. The SlimBody version is more aerodynamic and weighted toward the head, allowing you to be faster and thereby generate even more power.
Together with the Octagonal Power technology in the shaft, which improves playability, the very modern 120 g frame is equipped with Stringbed X-Tension technology, increasing rebound for additional power.
The racket uses Auxetic 2.0 technology in the racket head, which shows a unique deformation and thus offers an even better feel and more information at ball contact than its predecessors. Among other technologies, HEAD's Adaptive Fan Pattern is also used, allowing you to choose between a straight string pattern for more power or a fan-shaped pattern for improved control.
The racket is used by Amanda Sobhy.

OCTAGONAL POWER TECHNOLOGY (OPT) - HEADs’ engineers implemented a new Octagonal Power Technology into the rackets shaft, that offers more power and better feeling because of the octagonal shape.
AUXETIC 2.0 – Advanced construction that dynamically responds to impact force. The bigger the strain, the more powerful the response — resulting in better feeling and more precise feed-back.
GRAPHENE INSIDE - Installed at strategically important places, strengthens the frame, improves stability and optimizes energy transfer to the ball.
STRINGBED X-TENSION – grommets at the top side of the frame increase space and allow the strings to move more freely at ball impact. Since this produces an effect like a trampoline, the bounce increases for extra power.
ADAPTIVE FAN PATTERN – which allows you to choose between a straight string pattern for more power or a special fan shaped pattern for improved control.
