Blade, but less demanding as Blade 98s

[janko934]

Hello,

I've tried Blade 98s and it's a bit to demanding for me and lacks some power. All of the Blades looks very interesting. I like to play aggressive from base line with heavy spin and especially forehand winners. Was thinking about Blade 101l. All of the 12, 13 years old club players use it.

What do you think? Yeah, I know it kind of has to be Blade.

Blade L is your ticket..

Not enough info,,, age, playing style forhand/backhand, 1hbh or 2hbh, your level,
your competittions level?
I would also list the brands of rakets available in your area..
this info would help alot to be able to give you good input..

Ok. Forget about Blade.

I'm looking for very manuverable racket with great power. It has to be light. Now I use Juice 108. Has great power, easy spin, but strings break very quickly.

What about Burn 100 uls? Some of those beginners rackets doesn't have any power. I've tried Drive Z-lite years ago and it had tremendous power.

What do you think?

...and yeah. Almost all rackets sell overhere.

try Wilson Ultra 100L.. its one of the better lighter rackets..
The Burns LS an ULS aren't as good..

Blade 101L head shape is pretty similar to the 360 Speed MP. IMO it responds really well to weight. I’m glad you mentioned this one, I’ve kind of forgotten about this racquet.

Is 101l much more demanding? What's with those low SW? Seems like Burn is more powerful than Ultra.

In perfect scenario I would try Ultra 100 l and 100 ul, Burn 100 ls and uls and Blade 101l.

I wouldn’t say any of the racquets you mentioned are demanding, certainly not the Blade 101L.

I know. But between them, which one is the most user friendly. You think 101l is less demanding than all others?

Radical S range may be worth considering.

Blade 98l user here and find a good string setup.

Use 17g poly setup in mine and i still get plenty of power, but i also added some lead to add stabillity in the upper hoop against bigger hitters

I would say the Ultra 100 non-CV is the most user friendly. I like the Blade 101l and it is less demanding than the Blade 98 and 98S, but it is a little too light, and weight seems to make it a little harsh in the upper hoop. the only Burn I have tried is the Burn 100 CV and it is the only Wilson CV that I can tolerate. Still its a little harsh. That was kind of a roundabout answer
