HEAD BOOM ALTERNATE MP L is a lighter and more playable version of the BOOM MP, designed for players who want easy access to power and a more offensive game. The racket is particularly suitable for exercisers and intermediate players who want to be able to generate tempo in their strokes without having to use maximum power on every hit.

The model is part of HEAD's BOOM series - a series of rackets known for their high power level and modern playing feel. The combination of explosive power and good ball feel makes it possible to both hit groundstrokes and at the same time have control over more precise shots such as stop balls and angles.

The design of the BOOM ALTERNATE MP L stands out with a tonal purple color. The color is inspired by Coco Gauff's favorite color and the model is also worn by both Coco Gauff and Lorenzo Musetti.
