2013 Wilson Steam 99S 105S
Wilson is releasing a new racquet Steam 99S and 105S in 2013.
The string pattern is 16 x 15. http://www.tennis.com/gear/2012/09/g...-part-1/39374/ really open pattern...

Wow that racquet looks like a hybrid between the Head MicroGel Wilson K-factor series.

Hey lefty, I've seen the new steam 96. Are the 99 & 105 going to be released in the US?

Sounds like the first technology tweak by Wilson in a long time that will actually make a difference.

Yeah, I really dislike how racquets are going 16x20. I even much prefer 16x18 over 16x19.

16x15? Crazy talk.
14x18 sounds much better to me.

18 x 18 would be the best compromise.

How would you characterize the difference between the 99S and the 105S? Which one is more spinny?
