Wilson Blade 100L 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. A lighter and more maneuverable racket for effortless swings, the Blade 100L V9 improves upon the outstanding design of the V8 by sharpening responses and increasing stability. Featuring a new Emerald Night Green matte finish, this racket 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.
