Building on nearly 20 years of dominance, Wilson's Blade performance tennis racquets continue to be the preferred choice of avid competitors looking for ultimate control, feel and stability. The Blade 98 (18x20) V9 has a sharper, more stable response that produces a more connected-to-the-ball feel. Featuring a new Emerald Night matte finish, the v9 has a braided graphite + basalt frame with a DirectConnect carbon fiber handle for enhanced torsional stability. StableFeel technology enhances the racket's sharp response and the feel of its control-oriented string pattern.
Features:
- 98 square inch head size
- 27 inch length
- 18 x 20 string pattern
- 305 grams weight (unstrung)
- Parallel Drilling: Grommet construction provides a consistent, more forgiving string bed response while dramatically increasing the sweet spot.
- FortyFive: Patent-protected frame layup produces more connected-to-the-ball feel while better complementing the more modern, vertical swing path. Material increases both flexibility and stability without compromise through the swing.
- Braided Graphite + Basalt: Elastic and reactive material combination improves the flex of a racket to increase ball contact with the strings for enhanced feel and greater control.
- Top Grip Taper: Tapered grip lends better feel for top-handed grip placement on two-handed backhand.
- DirectConnect: Carbon fiber handle extends to directly connect with end cap for improved feel and enhanced torsional stability.
- StableFeel: The new Blade technology that provides an enhanced, firmer feel that increases stability and creates a more connected-to-the-ball feel. Designed with avid players in mind, this "sharper Blade" is ideal for those seeking to improve their game.
This racquet comes as a frame. We have FREE string options listed. This racquet does not include a racquet cover however you can select one from the drop down above.
Please note, if you choose a string option that requires us to string the racquet for you, we do not add the brand’s stencil. Simply request it in the comments if you’d like it and we’ll add it for free. If you order a pre-strung racquet this will include the brand stencil on the string bed.
