HEAD 2026 Range Explained: Coello, Extreme, Speed X — Which HEAD Padel Racket Fits You (UAE)

We've mapped NOX, Bullpadel, Adidas, Babolat and Siux top to bottom. HEAD was the gap — we've covered Coello Pro vs Motion vs Team and Extreme Pro vs Speed Pro X as separate head-to-heads, but never the full picture in one place. Here it is: five active HEAD rackets in UAE stock right now, sorted by what they're actually built to do.

The Coello line: Arturo Coello's three rackets

Arturo Coello doesn't play one racket — HEAD builds him three, and each targets a different player, not just a different price point. We covered this in full in our Coello Pro vs Motion vs Team breakdown, but the short version:

HEAD Coello Pro — 1,125 AED, 1 in stock. Diamond shape, head-heavy, hybrid construction built for advanced offensive players who want explosive smashes without giving up all-round play. This is Coello's own tournament racket.

HEAD Coello Motion — 1,250 AED, currently sold out (restock follows our Spain supplier's air-freight schedule). The lighter, more maneuverable version of the Pro — same hybrid shape, less swing weight, for players who want Coello's feel without the mass.

HEAD Coello Team — 780 AED, currently sold out. The softer, more forgiving diamond in the family, aimed at intermediate to advanced players stepping up rather than pros. It's the entry point into the Coello name.

Extreme Pro: the stiffest racket HEAD makes

HEAD Extreme Pro — 1,050 AED, 1 in stock. Diamond shape, head-heavy, built purely for power. This isn't a player-signature racket like the Coello line — it's HEAD's dedicated power platform for expert and competitive players who've already got clean, consistent technique and want the racket to add pace, not forgiveness. If your arm has ever complained after a heavy session, this is not the frame to start with — see our padel elbow guide first.

Speed Pro X: the control counterpart

HEAD Speed Pro X — 1,175 AED, 1 in stock. Teardrop shape, even balance — the opposite design philosophy to the diamond-shaped Extreme Pro and Coello Pro. Where those two put the sweet spot high for power, the teardrop shape and even balance on the Speed Pro X spread it out for a more consistent, all-court feel.

How to actually choose between the five

Ignore the price tags for a second and ask two questions: do you want a diamond (power-forward, smaller effective sweet spot) or a teardrop/even-balance shape (more forgiving, more control)? And are you buying into Coello's specific tuning, or HEAD's more generic Extreme/Speed platforms?

Diamond, want Coello's exact setup, full power: Coello Pro. Diamond, want Coello's setup but lighter in hand: Coello Motion (once restocked). Diamond, still learning to control a diamond shape: Coello Team (once restocked). Diamond, want raw stiffness with no signature tuning: Extreme Pro. Teardrop, want all-round control: Speed Pro X.

If you're not sure a diamond shape is right for you at all yet, read our shapes guide before you commit — it's the decision that matters more than which brand's diamond you pick.

Where HEAD sits against the rest of our premium range

Every HEAD racket we stock sits in the 780–1,250 AED band — squarely in advanced territory, alongside NOX's AT10 Genius line, Adidas Metalbone and Bullpadel's Vertex/Neuron families. None of these five are beginner or intermediate frames; if you're not there yet, our intermediate upgrade guide is the honest starting point.

Two of the five (Motion and Team) are sold out as we publish this — that's real air-freight lead time from Spain, not manufactured urgency. If you want one, WhatsApp us and we'll tell you honestly where the next shipment stands. Browse what's in stock now in our HEAD collection.

Play it Bueno.
