WILSON RACKET BLADE 98 V9.0 18X20 305G

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 Blade 98 (18×20) 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.
