Was never a Blade user, but the 98 V9 18x20 sold me. So much control & comfort with enough power/stability. Doesn't feel too demanding either. Easily best wilson frame in a long time :)

Racquet question: I am a squash player, haven’t played tennis in 15 years. Just found my Wilson triad 6.0 of back in the day but with only 6 months of use basically. Is it still fine to use it? Is that a good racquet for one hand backhand player? If not, any recommendations? Thank you.

Switched to the blade 98 v8 this year, but find it very light, so went back to my TF40, I love the TF40 - what's your thoughts on that? Both 305 and 16x19 versions, but the TF40 just seems more solid, the wilson gets me 'out of jail' sometimes, but that seems to be the difference at the moment.....any improvemnt on the blade 98 v9?

Hi, great video as always. Under control rackets I would add my new favourite which is the Yonex Percept 100. Used the Ezone for 2 years so took a lot for me to change, but the Percept 100 is amazing in my view. Has totally helped my game.

@markhibbitt1269 9 дней назад

@whitemaz3756 yes the general feel. I loved my Ezone 98 but it was harder to control the power and hit long. The Percept 100 has good top spin so I am hitting long less often and find it easier to hit angles. Just seems to suit my game more than a racket I had used every week for 2 years. I am not saying the Ezone is not a fantastic racket, but for me the Percept 100 just has more controlled power that allows you to get depth without over hitting.

Still a lot of 2024 to come and one never knows how they feel about 'new' things until more time. Head Extreme Tour and possibly Babolat Pure Strike 98 16x19 are top racquets up to now. Will be VERY interesting to see what new Extreme 'Pro' will be like. Head Boom Pro 2.0 is another I will be thoroughly reviewing and hopefully it will be better than the first..

@miguelroda8779 6 дней назад

@@MsSarbie very small things to be honest. Felt like I could hit more freely on my forehand without overhitting. But on the other side, on my backhand, it feels like if I don’t make good contact the ball kinda dies and ends up to short. So for forehand I prefer what the blade offers but sometimes I miss the forgiveness of radical on the backhand. Everything else they feels very close. Also love the paintjob of the blade although it wasn’t the main reason to switch.

@roryoconnor4989 9 дней назад

Jonas, I always wonder why there are no options for someone who wants a powerful racquet such as the ezone or pure aero/drive in 18x20? I love these racquets but always want a slightly denser string pattern. Do any players use custom layups of these frames?

@johnnyguitar6697 9 дней назад

The Percept 100D is probably your best bet. The Solinco Whiteout 18x20 is another one to look for. In both cases, your string set up is going to be critical at getting the right amount of juice from them.

@roryoconnor4989 9 дней назад

@@johnnyguitar6697 not a power racquet. I have an older vcore 100 and the frame hasn’t changed much. Thin beam, very flexible. The pure strike 100 16x20 is the closest thing imho but it’d be cool to try a ezone 98/100 in 18/20 16/20. Niche I suppose!

@charlesfaure1189 9 дней назад

The proper way to control power is with spin. For that reason, it seems to me that denser string patterns merely make a power racquet LESS controllable than any racquet should be, unless the user has a poor swing and merely bumps and pushes, and still, the margin of error is needlessy small in such a racquet. But to each his own. I agree absolutely with your high opinion of the Blade 100, which is a fabulous racquet. If the user knows what they're doing, it'll give you anything you want.

@pistolpete023 9 дней назад

Both agree and disagree. Yes, you can control power with spin, but control is also about ball direction, i.e., hitting the spots that you intend to hit. I find denser string patterns better for directional control.

Weighted it to how a regular PS97 would be like and with 4G Soft at low tensions anywhere from 46 to as low as 41) its been working wonders so far It gives the precision of a regular 97” PS but with more mass on the hoop, best of both worlds so far
