Offering big spin and improved feel, Wilson delivers an impressive update to the Blade 98S. Like the previous generation, this racquet comes with an open 18x16 string pattern, making it ideal for those who want easy access to spin but also prefer the added directional control that comes with 18 main strings. New to this version is a braided, more elastic Graphite/Basalt construction. The result is a racquet whose hoop flexes more at impact, giving it slightly better feel and ball pocketing than the previous version. Wilson also expands the sweetspot with its Parallel Drilling. This technology reduces the friction between string and racquet in key areas of the frame so the strings can absorb more shock. From the baseline the 98S rewards big swings with penetrating depth and explosive spin. Our playtest team was impressed by how rapidly this 11 ounce racquet accelerated through contact, a feature that comes in handy when trying to crank forehand winners on the dead run. On serves this racquet shines on slices and kickers, and there's plenty of heat available for those who can swing it fast. *This racquet is compatible with the . * Purchased Directly From Wilson Authorize Dealer*** Wilson Does Not Offer Cover For This Racquet**
