Wilson Blade 98 18x20 V8 Tennis Racket
Blade
The Blade racket series provides a dynamic mix of control, precision, and feel. Thinner beam construction and technologies merge flexibility and stability, resulting in a versatile outcome.
FORTYFIVE°
This patented technology results in a sense of connection with the ball. The combination of flexibility and stability perfectly suits long, modern strokes.
DirectConnect
The carbon fiber underlayer of the handle is in direct connection with the racket's end cap, enhancing feel and increasing torsional stability.
Color Shifting Paint
Nicknamed "chameleon paint", this technology is true design-in-motion as it activates color changes with movement of the frame, creating a glimmer-like effect.
Braided Graphite + Basalt
A combination of elastic and responsive materials that contribute to increased racket flexibility, for extended ball contact, better feel, and added control.
Parallel Drilling
Consistently hit the sweet spot. Thanks to strategically placed boreholes in the frame, your shots gain targeted precision that elevates your game to a higher level.
Top Grip Taper
Tapered grip lends better feel for top-handed grip placement on two-handed backhand.
