Wilson adds another chapter to their most spin-friendly Blade! With its unique 18×16 string pattern, the Blade 98S v9 is engineered to snap the ball out of the string bed with extra ball rotation, making it perfect for the player who likes to hit with heavy spin. It also has a 21mm box beam and flexible construction, giving it the iconic control and feel for which the Blade franchise is known. As with the previous generation, this update incorporates
Direct Connect Technology, f
using the butt cap directly to the carbon fiber handle for increased stability. It also retains Wilson’s
FortyFive
layup technology, which enhances lateral flexibility to complement the explosive vertical mechanics of the modern game (think easy spin). New for 2024 is
StableFeel
technology which introduces a slightly firmer layup for greater stability and easier access to power. Ultimately, with subtle changes to the feel and response, this racquet continues to be an obvious choice for experienced players who want a great feeling racquet with ultra easy access to spin.
