Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet

Ultra-lightweight — lighter than the MP and the MP L, and in this family lighter means more power. Hy-Bor in the shaft, Auxetic 2.0, an AI-designed string pattern, directional drilling, blue drawn from Head's ski racing collection. It has chosen Ushuaia, where the land runs out, and it would like you to come.

Ushuaia, Argentina
01
Croissant Park tennis clinic — Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet photographed inside the Museo Marítimo of Ushuaia prison cell blocks
Stop one

the Museo Marítimo of Ushuaia, laid out through the cell blocks of the prison closed in 1947

Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet: In the Museo Marítimo, the racquet leans among former prison cell blocks like a moonlit oar that took a wrong turn into tennis; the prison closed in 1947, which is also how my backhand sometimes feels—historical, locked up, and asking for release.

02
Croissant Park tennis clinic — Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet by the End of the World Train in Ushuaia
Stop two

the End of the World Train, built to haul timber for the convicts

Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet: Beside the End of the World Train, this frame feels like a racket-string lyre serenading the timber rails; the line was built to haul wood for convicts, so yes, even the forest once had to commute.

03
Croissant Park tennis clinic — Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet on the Beagle Channel waterfront with Chilean islands across the water
Stop three

the waterfront on the Beagle Channel, Chilean islands across the water

Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet: On the Beagle Channel waterfront, the racquet stares toward Chilean islands across the water like a compass wearing tennis shoes; geography serves first, and I return it into the wind with only moderate dignity.

04
Croissant Park tennis clinic — Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet with Les Éclaireurs lighthouse offshore and wildlife on the rocks
Stop four

the Les Éclaireurs lighthouse offshore, cormorants and sea lions on its rocks

Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet: Les Éclaireurs lighthouse rises offshore while cormorants and sea lions hold court on the rocks, a jury of feathers and whiskers judging my slice. The racquet, mercifully, pleads elegance.

The Ushuaia, Argentina track

Head Boom MP UL 2026 Tennis Racquet

Written for this world alone.

UL stands for ultra-lightweight, which is a plain fact wearing plain clothes, and yet — a racquet built to be barely there, at the end of the world, where the land runs out. Let me try that again with the specification in hand, because the specification is the poem here.

This is the lightest frame in the Boom family, lighter than the MP and lighter than the MP L, and lighter, in this series, means more power, not less. Less mass, more speed, the ball leaving like something released rather than something struck.

The making of it. Hy-Bor in the shaft — an aerospace material mix, which is the sort of phrase that has no business being beautiful and somehow is — added to raise the perceived stability and give a solid feel at impact.

Auxetic 2.0 for a connected feel to the ball, so the hand knows the story before the eye does.

A string pattern designed with artificial intelligence alongside real players' feedback, tuned for power and touch together. Beam and grommet sets shaped to add power; directional drilling for touch and comfort.

It is built for beginners, improvers and rising juniors who want to attack.

The design is vibrant blue, drawn from Head's ski racing collection, and it is endorsed by Coco Gauff and Lorenzo Musetti.

And it has chosen Ushuaia, as if it knew. The Beagle Channel lies out front like a sentence with no full stop, the Chilean islands across the water, and offshore the Les Éclaireurs lighthouse stands on its rocks with cormorants and sea lions arranged around it like an audience that arrived early.

"Less mass, more speed — the ball leaves like something released, not struck."
