It's Wilson's pro stock frame given to Head pro's transitioning to Wilson contracts. It's a clone of the early Radical MP (Ti.Radical/i.Radical/ LM Radical), and comes in 18x20, 16x19, and rarely 18x17 string patterns. It is usually used under Wilson Burn and Wilson Blade paint jobs. Used right now notably by Nicolas Mahut, Pablo Carreño Busta, Karen Khachanov, Andrey Rublev, Renzo Olivo, Paul Henri Mathieu, etc. Originally created for Novak Djokovic when going from the Head Liquidmetal Radical to Wilson:

Your signature says you play with Tecnifibre 18M LTD as well, I love playing with it too :). How would you compare the 18M to PT57A and H22?

The Tecnifibre 315 LTD 18M is not a good frame unless its is weighed up. It is low powered and very control oriented. Flexible in the hoop area and stiff in the throat, very similar to a microgel prestige mp. The PT57A is also very low powered but even more flexible than the tecnifibre with a more solid feel, it feels insane when hitting with the correct timing in the middle of the strings and there is no other racquet like it. The H22 is the more stiff and solid feeling of the three, it has much more power, and is stiffer in the hoop area but flexible in the throat maintaining a "buttery" feel; the ball flies off the strings without much effort but dives in the court at the last second. I prefer the H22 to all of them.

Sweet, one day maybe i'll get to try the famous PT57A and H22. For now i'll settle with my poor man's pro stock - tecnifibre 18m :(. I have added a little weight to my 18M and it works really well for me.

It could have been. Just not a "prostock paintjob" it is a customized Pro Tour 630. Just like Tommy Haas had retail Pro Tour 630 leaded up.
