Take your game to a new level with Wilson's all-new Blade 98 (16x19) v7 tennis racquet. The 7th version of the most popular frame within the Blade family gets a brand new tri-colored design to go with state-of-the-art innovations for next-level performance.
The Blade 98 brings awesome added performance to the court thanks to some excellent updates from Wilson. This 7th version is more slightly head-light than the previous version & includes "FeelFlex" technology, an evolution to Clash's "FreeFlex" technology, which Wilson has implemented a proprietary carbon mapping strategically placed throughout the hoop of racquet for better connected-to-the-ball feel and additional flexibility. Wilson has also refined the top of the grip with an all-new "Top Grip Taper" which provides a more comfortable top-hand grip placement. Wilson continues the use of Braided Graphite + Basalt composition which improves the flex of the racquet to produce enhanced feel and control. Parallel Drilling also continues which helps provide a consistent, more forgiving string bed response.
Overall, the all-new 2019 Blade 98 (16x19) v7 features that 98 square-inch head, with a comfortable 11.4 ounce-strung weight to go with a more opened 16x19 string pattern -- all adding up to that traditional feeling racquet tailored towards that advanced player that places a premium on control & feel.
