Wilson Pro Stock Line

If anyone else in the EU wants to check the entire Pro Labs racquet collection available without using search, just use the country specific variations of the link I got from the user below. You just had to put in your own country in the link.

France:
Germany:
Spain:
Italy:

No love for Canada (and Mexico), South America, Asia-Pacific, and Africa it seems. Also Russia maybe...

To me that is likely bc they took the ultra pro v3 out of ultra page and put it in pro labs page


(There was another post by the same user a couple pages back but this seems like the one people noticed.)

When I followed the link it asked me if I wanted the UK site but let me go to the Pro labs microsite (which has now gone down again).

No mention of H19/H22 that I could see.

So, we have no luck on getting hands on any of them from UK site?

Only slight red flag is they say the beam is 21.5mm on the wilson site. I suspect that is an error, especially since the frame looks like an h22 in the pictures. But i guess ill find out.

Was going to get 16x19 Ultra Pro but it is out of stock? How come it sold out so quick?? I would have thought the Blade Pro would be the ones to go first if anything... does anyone know if they were even available from get go?

There's no way it was ever available. Thinking about it before.

I've seen so many grip sizes available for the others. 4 5/8 all the way down to 4 1/8 for God sakes and still available for some EU countries. They just wouldn't run out of stock that fast. And it never even showed up in some countries.

:)

So now there is no certainty re either the mold and the layup (whether on this forum or officially)? In any case, thanks to all the brave souls (particularly in the more expensive territories) for taking the cold risk and investing their hard earned cash to do this investigation (and hopefully reporting back to everyone).

Was it not the case already once with the UT that it was the H19 mold but other than that the racquet was a bit underwhelming?

I've read elsewhere that the beam is actually 21.5 on an H22, but perhaps more well versed experts can weigh in.

Do you guys think they will add more Pro Stock rackets in the futur or are these the only ones used on the tour?

They also list their Ultra Pro/Tour at 20.6 mm flat beam. Guess that's just what they measured, I think it's still safe to assume that the Blade Pro is an H22.

I had to read this 4 times at first before I understood the reference...

I thought you said your tennis coach turned into a pumpkin.... :-D Is this some weird Halloween thing I don't know about?

Do you often use your coach as a mode of transport?
It's from the children's fairy tale Cinderella.

Btw, between delivery fee and taxes, price for US was $301

$270 for me. Free shipping if you want to wait 10-14 days for delivery.

The UT is my favorite racquet by far. Nothing underwhelming about it. The new V13 PS that I just received doesn't come close to it, nor anything else that I've trie.

Sucks the Ultra 16x19 is sold out. My discount code doesn't work on these either :(

I'll probably get a 18x20 Blade and see how it goes. Wish they made the Six.One in the team edition or otherwise lighter version.

Hey guys, I'm thinking about getting one of the Blade Pros/H22s but this from Wilson made me nervous: "...this racket features a light stock weight that enables users to easily customize and add weight for more power, if desired." Do people think these will be playable at stock weight? Or is Wilson selling us anemic pro stock hairpins that absolutely need customization to be playable?

Their copy is very sporadic. For the UP 18x20 they list the balance as
Unstrung Balance8 pts HL / 31.5cm
For the UP 16x19 they list the balance as
Unstrung Balance31.5CM/9 Pts HL

So same balance measure, 1pt difference in balance. Based on this alone I would say they need to fix the specs

I think the balance point indicates decent weight in the head despite low stock weight.
 
Hmm. I'm really tempted by the 6.1, as I've been using a Ncode 18x20 the last 6 months to good results. But is it a stretch to pay upwards of $300 for 6.1? I know the PJ is sick, but these racquets have been made for retail before. Unless it's a special layup?? I get the exclusive nature of the H19 and H22's... but the 6.1? And just as rent is due, Wilson does this...

Don't be afraid if racquet companies or retailers round off specs to what they think players will like.

Blade 93 - 20.2mm listed as 20mm or 21mm lol.
TF40 - 21.7mm listed as 22mm

They will not be anemic. They will have plenty of mass in the hoop. I plan to play mine stock and only add weight to the handle if I have to or to the hoop for matching purposes. v1-v6 Blades had the same 305/32.5 spec with 330+ SW strung and a lot of people played them stock and still do. Wilson may make the layup slightly firmer which imo is a good thing so we don't have to add tons of weight to make the frame stable/powerful enough.

Perfect--the Blade specs work well for my game and I'm not really an at-home customizer. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't getting something totally bare bones!

Oh, trust me I don't mind what they call the points in balance. I just find it funny that both are 31.5cm but one is 9HL and one is 8HL. It's just inconsistent presentation of the data.

i was going to say the same.. the weight is slightly lower than blade v7 but balance is more head heavy... it's also thicker beam... it'll hit just fine... I am curious about RA though...

pretty cool. Paint seems a bit glossier and no specs in the throat
Yeah definitely Pro stock. They seem to make the gloss extra shiny and durable for pros even though they scratch them up quicker and replace.

Haha yeah. You'd think from the same company would be bad enough... But at the same time for different products?

Since you've had experience with pro stock, is your opinion that the Ultra Tour HAS been an H19 (regardless of layup), and do you expect the Ultra 97 Pro to be a legit 16x19 H19?

The blade 16x19 needed weight 2&10, it just wasn’t stable. This is an entirely different racquet altogether so will play stock first and see what I want to do. As a minimum, will be adding a leather grip

yeah that I might do that (leather grip) as well. i am not touching the hoop on these things... 6hl unstrung is right there already for me and I don't like to get too much above 340gr as the SW should be mid 330s already..
