Building on nearly 20 years of dominance, Wilson's Blade performance rackets continue to be the preferred choice of avid competitors looking for ultimate control, feel, and stability. The lightest, most maneuverable racket in the V9 series, the Blade 100UL is the ideal model for transitioning junior players. Featuring a new Emerald Night Green matte finish, this racket has an open string pattern that gives players an optimal blend of control, feel, and power. Its braided graphite + basalt frame with DirectConnect carbon fiber handle delivers an improved feel and enhanced torsional stability

Parallel Drilling: Grommet construction provides a consistent, more forgiving string bed response while dramatically increasing the sweet spot

Fortyfive: Patent-protected frame layup produces a more connected-to-the-ball feel while better complementing the more modern, vertical swing path. The material increases both flexibility and stability without compromise through the swing

Top grip taper: Tapered grip lends a better feel for top-handed grip placement on two-handed backhand

Direct connect: The carbon fiber handle extends to directly connect with the end cap for improved feel and enhanced torsional stability

Stable feel: The new Blade technology 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
