Wilson Blade 100 v8 Tennis Racquet
Wilson`s Blade 100 v8 Tennis Racquet represents a slick and sustainable new direction for one of the brand`s most popular tour frames. With v8, Wilson's patent-protected FORTYFIVE° layup makes the Blade a perfect match for the more vertical swing plane in today's modern game. The Blade is again focused on control and feel, with a good balance of stability with flexibility. The racquet's cosmetic features a green to copper color shifting paint that transitions depending on the light. The Blade has been featured in green for a few generations, but now "green" doesn't just refer to the cosmetic. The racquet head guard and grommets are created with AGIPLAST, a bio-based plastic that can also be found in the end cap. Wilson went under the hood and specifically under the grip with Direct Connect technology which connects the end cap to the carbon fiber, as opposed to the foam in the racquet handle. The result is a 16% increase in torsional stability for greater power and feel. The 100 square inch head size, thicker beam, and lighter weight make this model easier to play than the Blade 98 versions.
Recommended for players: Intermediate players looking for a light, versatile racquet.
