Thanks! I like that 16x19 pattern. Now im really tempted.
 
Do we have any actual proof that this version is different from the last Ultra Tour? For a while the 'Ultra Pro' was billed as the exact same racquet as the Tour but with updated colours, not a 'Pro Lab' special, so I'm a little skeptical that this is somehow going to be a truer version of the H19, whatever that actually means.

It's the same racquet you could have bought for 99 not too long ago...

Got my Ultra Pro 16x19 yesterday here in Australia and strung it up last night. Will have a hit with it on Friday afternoon

I hope you realize you will be remembered as being the first human on earth to review what could be the most brilliant tennis racket of all time...

Looking forward to read your review! ;)

Ordered mine too. Also interested to how plays compare t9 the ultratours (have 4) vs the blade v7 16x19 I have recently changed too.

Will be using volkii cyclone tour 16. (Thanks @g4driver ). Liking it better than hyper 18. Similar stiffness. Better spin and power and life.

Hey I’m using HG18 and am curious about VCT 16. Do the red and gray colors play similar?

Not to steal @TR3NT 's thunder or put @Classic-TXP-IG MID on the spot, but didn't he also get an UP 16x19?

Has anyone had a chance to hit with it yet? Why does no on want to review it? Is it that bad? :laughing:

I have given mine to the stringer... but as I live far away from him (long story), I will pick them up (including the BP 16x19) on the 16th Oct.

My UP 16x19 was 309g static, and I'm waiting for the stringer to give me the exact specs of balance, weight, and SW. I'm not sure if he can do the RA.

I'm also stringing my UT 18x20 at the same time to compare it to the UP

That's fair. Rather have a good stringjob than just who happened to be closest. I was just joking around why it seemed, there wasn't anyone, in Australia I guess, who wanted to review the 16x19.

At least they can give you exact specs. RA would be nice but I think precise SW is already pretty good.

Received my Ultra Pro 16x19 today. With the plastic it is 308g and feels every bit 9 to 10 pts headlight. Don’t have a RA or swing weight machine but do have access to one. Hope to get it measured soon. Paint job looks great. By the way, is it just me or is Wilson’s 4 3/8 grip getting larger? The 3/8 grip feels more like a 1/2 to me or like a Babolat 3/8 grip which I have always thought that Babolat grips are huge.

Looks like you might be right on spec!!! Where are you located (Australia, US, etc)?
I ordered 4 1/4 for that very reason ...
 
The tennis Gods must be following this thread, because I just received an email from Wilson confirming shipment. Mine will be delivered Tuesday. Will post initial specs on Wednesday evening, will run up to Orlando to get SW and RA specs.
 
Strung it up today. Came to 325g with a dampener. I string with a hybrid (Revolve 17 in the mains and NXT 16 in the crosses). Stringing this racquet was a breeze. Mains skip 8T, 8H. Mains tie off at 6T and crosses tie off at 5H, 11T. I like to tie my strings with poly on poly and synthetic gut on synthetic gut. I didn’t have a lot of time but the next time I string I am going to explore trying to tie the top cross at 11 or 12T like I do my Blades 16x19 to get the synthetic on synthetic. Way too wet in Georgia today to hit but planning to hit it tomorrow. Need to add a new grip to slim this 3/8 grip down so will give weight once I do that and add an over grip. I will probably add lead at 3 and 9 as it swings light. Racquet looks great. The pattern is fairly open. Maybe a little more than I expected but you have 6 mains in the middle versus 8.

Thanks. What was the balance and swing weight?
