This is the successor to the Head Graphene 360 Speed 120 Slimbody and is Paul Coll’s racket of choice.
Here’s Paul Coll using this racket at the 2021 British Open:
This is not to be confused with the Head Graphene 360+ Speed 120, which is the non-“Slimbody” racket and has a slightly chunkier frame.
Thanks to Joe Magor for the tip!

Is there an info about Paul colls Strings and grip? 🙂

He uses Kirschbaum “Gut Feeling” – It’s a soft multifilament, and they are a German manufacturer.
Not sure which gauge, there’s a handful of options with this string, but my guess would be the 19g/1.09mm or 18g/1.15mm, since he uses the tighter more dense fan pattern in the Speed.
These strings are only available in certain parts of Europe.
Not sure on the grip! Been trying to find that one out for a little bit

What are people doing to build up the grip on this racquet? The handle has a weird shape. If you put one Karakal PU Super Grip on the bare frame, it is not enough. But two is too much. Is there some good combination of a thinner grip and a Karakal? I’d prefer to have the Karakal as the outer grip (i.e. no overgrip).

Try using a Wilson Pro Overgrip, you can find them at Big 5, or Dick’s sporting goods, they come in packs of 3 for ~$7, if you can afford to wait, then order some online.
Start with the bare handle and put the overgrip on it first, play with how taught you apply the overgrip because you can really apply it thinly depending how much you stretch it out as you apply it, then put your Karakal PU over it. Once done If how you did it still feels fat, then take of PU grip and stretch the overgrip even more underneath it and redo.
Hope this helps!

Greetings Squashsource!
If you are in the U.S. and interested, I have and am selling one of these on eBay in very good condition!
It’s not for sale yet on the US retailers sites, got it from the UK and used it twice.
I thought I’d utilize and make it known here on Squashsource (Thanks Pierre!) so it can go to a good home and to someone who will make the best out of it.
All pics and and info is laid out on the eBay listing.
Thanks!
