Description
Attack at every opportunity with the Wilson Blade 98S tennis racket in Copper Green, the v8 edition of the most popular racket on the Pro Tour. PLEASE NOTE: This is a demo racket. For full details of our demo programme, head to our FAQs page.
The Blade’s back and better than ever. Returning with some gamechanging new tech and a spectacular colour-shifting paintjob, the Wilson Blade v8 has evolved in line with the modern game, providing even greater rewards for those willing to embrace aggressive, attacking play. The addition of FORTYFIVE technology in the layup – the arrangement of braided fibres at 45 degrees – creates the perfect combination of flexibility and stability, allowing the braid to “breathe†on impact for a truly next-gen, connected-to-the-ball feel. It’s designed to indulge the vertical swing path that most pros tend to favour, but you’ll appreciate the satisfying pocketing sensation whatever your action looks like. For improved stability lower down, DirectConnect sees the carbon fibre handle extend into the end cap, better integrating the two and making the entire racket feel more natural in the hand as you play your shots. Elsewhere, the Blade v8 retains Parallel Drilling at the grommets for a more forgiving sweetspot, and the grommets and bumpers are made from castor bean oil, bio-based Agiplast to help protect the environment. The S version weighs in slightly lighter for even more manoeuvrability and features the Spin Effect 18x16 string pattern, ideal for players who like to rip through the ball and produce dramatic dipping shots.Description
