The new HEAD Extreme 135 is a great racquet for beginners, intermediate and club players. It has a similar frame shape to HEAD's flagship Speed models but is available at an incredible value-for-money price point.

The Extreme 135 is slightly heavier than the super-light Extreme 120, for players who like a little bit more inertia and swing weight in their shot. It makes for a very solid and dependable ball strike.

This is what HEAD says:

Refreshed with a new design, the lightweight, powerful EXTREME 135 SQUASH RACQUET is the perfect all-rounder that will suit the club player who feels at home on all parts of the court.

The 135g frame offers superior power transfer and a thin shaft, as well as Innegra™ technology, a hybrid-composite structure which is integrated into the racquet and delivers advanced shock absorption and enhanced stability. The EXTREME 135 also features a completely new asymmetrical color blocking design that really stands out.
