The verdict
The Evo Extreme 2026 refreshes Head's keen starter at a confirmed 350 g: a Soft EVA core under the familiar fibreglass face, scoring the family's standard power 70 with fair-to-firm terms (comfort 67, tolerance 66) and honest handling (68). Value 78 matches the 2025 edition exactly, which makes the vintage question purely a price question. The 2026 is ten grams lighter and softer-cored on paper; in practice both are the same athletic-beginner offer. Buy whichever Extreme is cheaper this week and swing with intent.

This refresh of Head's starter genuinely trims real weight versus its predecessor, keeping the family's standard power delivery through the Soft EVA core. Terms run fair-to-firm throughout, and honest handling backs it up. Value matches the previous 2025 edition almost exactly, which makes the vintage question purely about availability — control wants developing targets either way, and terms outside power run a touch firm.
