The Blade Performance tennis racquets from Wilson offer perfect control for crucial moments. For the tenth edition of this legendary series, we have evolved the design for the modern player, incorporating insights from nine generations of innovation. In the Blade 98 18x16 V10, we have increased the frame height in the upper section by 1 mm to achieve a subtle tapering. This enhances the stability of the racquet head, providing effortless power and increased aggressiveness. Additionally, we have optimized the string pattern to achieve an industry-leading torsional stability of 3 degrees while maintaining the signature Blade feel. The 18x16 string pattern generates devastating spin, and the Championship Green color is a real eye-catcher on the court.
