Wilson Blade 100UL v9 Tennis Racquet

DESCRIPTION:

Building on nearly 20 years of dominance, Wilson's Blade performance rackets continue to be the preferred choice of avid competitors looking for ultimate control, feel and stability. The lightest, most maneuverable racket in the V9 series, the Blade 100UL is the ideal model for transitioning junior players. Featuring a new Emerald Night Green matte finish, this racket has an open string pattern that gives players an optimal blend of control, feel and power. Its braided graphite + basalt frame with DirectConnect carbon fiber handle delivers improved feel and enhanced torsional stability.

Features:

• 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.
  

• 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.
