The Blade 100L v9 provides a sharper and more stable response, which results in a more connected-to-the-ball feel, paired with an easier swinging experience suitable for beginners, strong juniors to experienced club players.

At 100 square inches, the average headsize brings a balance between power and control potential. The open string pattern enhances string movement for easier access to spin while inducing some trampoline effect for increased power generation. The racquet's slightly lighter than average weight brings stability with maneuverability for a balance of power and control and an easier swinging experience than the heavier members of the Blade series. The headlight balance of this racquet enhances a dynamic game's power and touch with faster racquet head speed for improved spin and power generation paired with quick and decisive volleys. The racquet is also quite flexible allowing for a longer dwell-time (the time the ball is in contact with the strings) and therefore an increased feel for the ball.

Wilson has updated the Blade series with a new Emerald Night matte finish and a braided graphite basalt frame with a DirectConnect carbon fiber handle for enhanced torsional stability. StableFeel technology bolsters the frame’s resistance to twisting and bending, providing a more connected feel and a firmer grip on the ball.

As the overall specs of this racquet have stayed the same, players who have used previous generations of this racquet will appreciate the improved stability and feel achieved through Wilson's technological improvements. With great ball feel, easier power and forgiving performance, this is in the sweet spot of racquets that will fit many players.
