Buy the Head Extreme Pro if you're advanced and want pro-level power, otherwise the RX Series Light suits broader play.
Different beasts at different prices. The Adidas RX Series Light at £95 is a lighter, more accessible take on the RX line. The Head Extreme Pro at £180-235 is a full-on advanced racket — diamond shape, high balance, hard EVA, 3K carbon, 360-375g.
Key points to consider:
If you're a confident advanced player who can handle a high-balance diamond and wants serious attacking power, the Extreme Pro at £180-235 is built for you. If you want a Adidas's intermediate range with reduced weight for easier handling, the RX Series Light is the smarter buy at £95. Don't buy a pro racket your technique can't honour.
