255 g / 9.0 oz
Lightweight racquets are perfect for beginners and intermediate players, offering effortless handling, excellent maneuverability, and ample power.
330 mm / 0.5 in HL
Head-heavy racquets have more weight towards the head, offering extra power and stability, particularly for baseline players who rely on strong groundstrokes. However, this balance reduces maneuverability, making quick net play and volleys more challenging.
645 cm² / 100 in²
Offering a perfect balance of control and power, mid-size racquets are ideal for intermediate to advanced players. With a slightly larger sweet spot, they provide forgiveness on off-center hits while still delivering precise shots—perfect for players seeking a versatile and balanced game.
16/19
The 16x19 string pattern, with 16 main and 19 cross strings, is more open, allowing for greater spin and power. The wider spacing between the strings enables the ball to sink deeper, creating more power and responsiveness, making it ideal for aggressive baseline players who rely on spin and speed.
24 mm
Thin beams offer more control and precision, ideal for advanced players. They provide better ball feel but generate less power, requiring faster swing speeds.
Purple is Coco Gauff’s favorite color and the tonal purple design of the BOOM ALTERNATE MP UL – which is endorsed by Gauff and Lorenzo Musetti – offers a striking and progressive look that matches the racquet’s explosive feel. UL stands for ‘ultra-lightweight’ and this is a new racquet in the BOOM series that is even lighter, and more powerful, than the MP and MP L models. This fun-loving racquet, which is ideal for beginners who are looking for easy, effortless power and who like to attack, is part of a BOOM series that offers the highest power level in the HEAD range. That explosive power is combined with the touch to play delicate drop shots.
Boost your power, confidence and fun with the BOOM ALTERNATE MP UL. Endorsed by Coco Gauff and Lorenzo Musetti, the BOOM series is more lifestyle-focused players who enjoy the fun and social side around tennis, but the racquets also come with the latest performance technologies to enhance the powerful touch.

The Auxetic 2.0 technology ensures a more connected feel to the ball while the beam and grommet sets are designed to enhance the power and the directional drilling provides extra touch and comfort.
