Wilson Blade 98 18x20 V10 Tennis Racquet

DESCRIPTION:

The Wilson Blade Performance Tennis Rackets are built for players who want total command in high‑pressure moments. Now in its 10th generation, the iconic Wilson Blade line evolves once again with design upgrades shaped by insights from nine previous iterations.

The Blade 98 18x20 V10 features a refined beam construction, raised by 1mm in the upper hoop to create a subtle taper that boosts head stability and adds easy power for more aggressive play. Its updated layup delivers an industry‑leading 3 degrees of torsional stability while preserving the signature Blade feel players love. The tighter string Bed provides a little more control and linear ball trajectory compared to its 16x19 counterpart, providing ultimate control on flat shots while still giving skilled players plenty of spin potential 

The 18x20 string pattern enhances control while still maintaining spin potential. In addition, the bold Championship Green finish brings standout style to the court.

Features: 

• DirectConnect - Carbon fiber handle extends to directly connect with end cap for improved feel and enhanced torsional stability.

• Click-and-Go - Bumper and grommet system that enhances durability and application through a superior fit.

• Braided composition - Braided composition improves the flex of a racket to produce enhanced feel and control

• Zen Edge - Zen Edge creates 3° of torsional stability for perfect Blade feel and off-center stability on off center shots to control any situation

• Signature X-Loop - Signature X-Loop geometry in the shoulders that deliver stability and feel to make a Blade a Blade
• 18x20 String Pattern - Dense string pattern optimizes string durability and generates stiffer response for enhanced touch and precision allowing for more control on full swings 
• StableFeel+ - The new Blade technology that provides an enhanced, firmer feel that increases stability and creates a more connected-to-the-ball feel. Designed with avid players in mind, this "sharper Blade" is ideal for those seeking to improve their game.
