It’s about $110 in the US, so somewhat of a mid-range racket.

Product Notes

This guy seems to be new for 2015/2016. The Head Ignition range has been around for a while, but I think the the rackets have been generally heavier. For example, the Head Innegra Ignition weighed in at 150 grams. So, I think Head have taken that frame and put together a much lighter racket.

I haven’t played with this racket, but it does seem like a good deal, priced at $99.

      Bought the 2015 version on sale for 49.99$ at sportscheck in Vancouver, BC down from 99.99$. The 2016 was also on sale for 64.99$ down from 109.99$. No difference between the two apart from color scheme.

      The 2015 with a fresh over grip weighs 159 grams. My old racket was 189g. Those 30g seem to make quite a difference to my sofar. Never played with a high end racket (too expensive, I’m budget minded and I am an above average player that could improve before dishing on equipment).

      Played with it for 3 weeks several times a week. Nice lightweight racket with good power and rather large sweet spot. This was a definite upgrade for me. I can recommend as a sales purchase no doubt.
