The Head Liquidmetal 8 is a great, oversized racquet that provides the player with a lot of control and useful power. Those players in the 2.0-4.0 level for tennis will instantly feel the difference in the Head Liquidmetal 8 than they would from a beginner’s racquet.

Weighing in at less than a pound, owners of the racquet can easily hit their shots early due to their success in executing fast swings with the racquet. Net play is just as easy, as the light weight once again lends itself well to volleys. A huge sweet spot on the racquet makes things less intimidating in an otherwise challenging situation.

The racquet’s ability to please various ranges of players is one of its most appealing assets, as someone at the advanced beginner level can easily grow with this racquet all the way through the intermediate range. For example, unlike most racquets at this level, it’s quite easy to apply spin to ground strokes despite the light weight and huge racquet head.

The racquet’s strings are very conducive to topspin and slice shots, and Head’s unique “Total Sweetspot Construction” is largely responsible for this. This new technology will probably find its way to other racquets to come out of the Liquidmetal line in the future.

As with all game improvement racquets, this will give you a boost in overall power, but you can harness it much better than most comparable racquets out there. This quality is what makes the Head Liquidmetal 8 the premier choice for those looking for a smooth transition from their previous racquet.

Most racquets this light end up limiting your ability to swing too hard, or the ball may fly into the opposite fence. In this case, the racquet’s spin-friendly string structure allows for some powerful ground strokes without worries of being limited by the racquet’s build.

We recommend the Head Liquidmetal 8 for anyone who is a strong beginner trying to take their game up a level, or anyone with long swings. Those with slow to moderate swing speeds will be very pleased with the control and power that will help keep the ball deep during rallies.

At a very reasonable price for a racquet with these qualities, the Head Liquidmetal 8 is high up on our list of recommended racquets for people in the 2.5 – 4.0 category.
