In HEAD's Power Range, YOUTEK includes d3o, QuadFace, Control Ring and MultiZone Grip.

Integrated in the lay-up and positioned in the shaft of the racquet, d3o offers new possibilities for tennis players. The d3o technology is able to sense the needs of the players during different strokes. On aggressive shots, the smart molecules lock together within nanoseconds and dramatically increase the stiffness of the whole racquet frame to provide maximum power. On slice or drop shots, the d3o molecules absorb the impact to provide a softer touch for better feel. In summary you'll be rewarded for your creativity by a racket that provides for every facet of your game.

QuadFace extends the stringbed at key points of the frame providing longer strings and an enlarged sweetspot resulting in maximum power. Inner QuadFace is an indentation on the inside of the frame that allows the strings to be more flexible before reaching the grommets, providing a more forgiving sweetspot. Outer QuadFace extends the outside of the frame to allow the strings to be longer, which provides more consistent power throughout the sweetspot.

The Control Ring reduces string deformation providing added control and accuracy on every shot. This is placed at the 10 & 2 o'clock positions on the inside of the frame and at the 8 & 4 o'clock positions for maximum control.

The Multizone grip features a unique, smooth, sweat-absorbing non-slip surface that offers greater comfort and control during play.
