Which one suits you

Pick the Babolat Air Veron 2.6 if

You want more weight behind the ball: the balance is higher, towards the head.
You swing fast and want a crisper response: the core is firmer.
You hit with a lot of spin: the face is textured to grip the ball.

Pick the Head Radical Team if

You want to spend less: it is £13 cheaper delivered today (£112.49 against £124.99).
You want it quicker in the hand and easier on the arm: the weight sits lower.
You want comfort: the core is soft, which gives more help on slow balls and tends to be kinder to the arm.

Not a factor, because they are the same on both: shape (both teardrop), weight, level (both intermediate).
