So weird that North America gets the 100 light versions and the 104 but not the 100 right away. It feels like Wilson doesn't want the 100 to steal the thunder of the 98's.

It's available in Australia, no idea about postage to US but I'll bring one over for you if you cover business class return tickets :D
I'm happy with my V8 100 and too much of a tight a** to buy new frames at RRP, but have a V9 demo on the way, hopefully I won't like it.
Can we order the v9 100 from TW Europe?

Hit with one and report back…. I think I can get a V8 100 from **************… Not sure if the V9 is worth the wait..

On a side note does anyone know if the blade 100 V7 was only available in america? I cant find any links to it in europe even places which show sold out cached search results

The fact that a few smaller websites have to listed seem to indicate that it will not be a Wilson exclusive. Not sure if TW will have it available right away at release or not. I would prefer to buy from tw if possible but not willing to wait around for too long. Wilson website indicates 3/15 release.

Just an update that as of today the Blade 100 V9 is available from Wilson direct and TW providing you favor the least popular grip sizes of 1 and 4. :rolleyes: Nice product rollout Wilson. :cautious: So strange how they treat the 100 as an afterthought when by a lot of accounts it's the best version of the Blade.

It's hard to tell from the pictures, but does anyone know if the Blade 100 V9 will have the same paint as the 98 V9? I know the 100 V8's paint was a little different from the 98's.

I’d be interested to hear the specs others are getting on their V9 100s. Static weight was just slightly under spec at 298g on mine but I was a little disappointed by how low my SW was at 283 unstrung and 311 strung. With OG, dampener, 4g weight under the buttcap, and 4g total lead at 10&2, I’m now at 330g, 323 SW, and 325mm balance.

just wipe it out completely so nobody reads any of it
or has to waste time getting to the facts.
and then we can start talking about the stick in another thread

Can anyone confirm whether the blade 100 V9 comes in grip size 5 (4 &5/8's) in europe?

Both the size 0 and 5 are crossed out from wilson directly so unsure if it indeed does come in 5 or whether all rackets listed have all the sizes shown but may actually only come in 1 to 4
