Wilson Blade 16/19 v9 305g - 2024.
Now the launch is here of the V9 of Wilson's iconic Blade series of rackets.
Building on nearly 20 years of dominance, Wilson's Blade performance racquets continue to be the preferred choice for tennis players looking for ultimate control, feel and stability. The Blade 98 (16x19) V9 has a sharper, more stable response that provides more feel with every shot. Featuring a new Emerald Night matte finish, the V9 features a braided graphite + basalt frame with a DirectConnect carbon handle for improved torsional stability. It also has an open 16/19 string pattern which provides a bit more speed and spin compared to the 18/20 string pattern.
StableFeel Improved feel with every ball hit
DirectConnect A technology that has made the racket more torsionally rigid and thus gives you better feel and control. Carbon fiber has been applied all the way down the handle to achieve this effect.
FORTYFIVE° A technology that makes the racket more flexible but also torsionally rigid/stable - thereby providing better contact with the ball.
Parallel Drilling Provides a more consistent and forgiving stringbed response. Drilling parallel holes in the racket frame reduces vibrations and provides a more stable hitting surface.
Braided Graphite Braided graphite + basalt provides a unique composite construction and flex profile of the racket frame - contributes to increased control.
The racket is delivered unstrung, but is available strung as an option
