Wilson Blade 100 V8 Tennis Racquet

The Blade 100 v8 offers Blade’s signature feel along with an excellent blend of dynamic design, power and control for competitive players. Equipped with all-new FORTYFIVE°, a patent-protected carbon construction, this racket adds a few degrees of flexibility and stability from its previous version to create excellent feel for the ball. Boasting a slightly thicker beam than other Blade models for a boost of power and flashing a unique color-shifting elastic finish between shades of green and copper, this racket turns heads with both its looks and its next-level performance.

The racquet’s new look features a green to copper color shifting paint that varies depending on the lighting. In Wilson’s push to literally go-green, the racquet head guard and grommets are created with AGIPLAST, a bio based plastic which was also incorporated into the end cap. Wilson also incorporated Direct Connect technology which connects the end cap into the carbon fiber, as opposed to the foam in the racquet handle. The end result is a 16% increase in torsional stability for greater power and feel. For certain, the Wilson Blade will continue to have a broad and loyal following among competitive tournament players.
