Awesome if it is; its the Del Vader then.
All 18x20s I guess

Do my eyes spy a Ultra Pro 16x19?
Both 16x19 for H22 and H19
Australia seemed to have stock already, they shipped it out the day after i bought and it's already arrived
My friend got his one yesterday after buying Tuesday! no express shipping options, it listed to be expected delivery of 5 daysish, pretty neat!
Too bad.it is the hps
Wilson tennis Twitter told me today the blade pro grommets would fit H22 rackets
their having issues with the site though
Yeah it’s kind of saying “Guys get racquets first, not refurnish your second-hand H22”.Oops just got another update, grommets not available till end of 2020 or beginning of 2021
Hey guys, just got my first hit with the bp 16x19 305 g static. Couldn’t measure balance or sw. The balls were heavy and it’s rainy so not the best circumstances.
I don’t know if it is honeymoon phase but damn this racquet feels heavenly. It’s for sure not that easy to handle bc of the sw. But if you can keep up and hit the sweet spot it feels amazing. I demoed almost all new releases and this feels like a instant switch. Strung with S7T at 24 kg. I think 22/23 would be better but maybe with better balls and no rain 24 is alright.
I used the same string and yeah - that feel is so good. I'd suggest playing matches with it for a while before an insta switch. I struggled a bit there and then salvaged it when I went back to my Pure Drive.
Need more time with it though. Regardless, this frame is 10/10 in feel for me.
Good review. What was the swing weight? 320+?Hey guys, just got my first hit with the bp 16x19 305 g static. Couldn’t measure balance or sw. The balls were heavy and it’s rainy so not the best circumstances.

I play gpro in matches and I think the frames are quite similar. How does the pd compare to the bp comfort wise?
SO can you compare the h22 to h19 the 16 x19 ??Both 16x19 for H22 and H19

Are Wilson going to have grommets for the blade pros? Edit: found them on US site, but not UK or Aus. When will they be in stock do you know?
Have not seen a 16x20 H22 or H19. There's occasionally a few very rare 16x18 H22s floating around though.Question for those Wilson Pro Stock gurus - was there ever a H19 or H22 in a 16x20 pattern? I thought that was the pattern Henin used in her playing days and I distinctly remember seeing a racquet from Melanie Oudin and it was definitely a 16x20 pattern. Did they just use the retail nTour frames if you remember those? For some reason I thought there was a pro stock frame from Wilson in a 16x20 pattern.

Henin used the tour 95 mold or whatever the racquet was called before that when it was the Hyper Hammer # or something. Henin's frame has PWS too; these frames do not.
Nishikori uses some version of the tour 95 mold too I believe.
Thank you!! I didn’t realize Henin was using a 95 mold. My guess is that Oudin used the nTour mold as it was a 95sq inch head with a 16x20 pattern. Was just curious if there was a 16x20 H19 or H22 mold out there.
Wilson said, 'we will see if we can get them up in the future but, won't be any time soon!' For EU Inc. UK.
So sad...
Wait for few days and look for people selling theirs on this forum and ask them to ship to Japan on your dime.I've never felt this sad about having no friends in America. If I had a friend, I could ask them to send me an Ultra Pro (16 x 19) to Japan.
A big thank you for posting the specs. I can’t believe they are selling the frames like that. QC is terrible.Oh man.. won the frckn lottery myself.
16x19 w/plastic on the handle..
310gr, 330cm. thats like 4hl with plastic.. so by the time og and strings.. i think it will be like 2hl..
18x20 w/plastic
311gr, 340cm. Thats almost even balance..
Wtf...
Ill measure swingweights and RA tomorrow at the local shop and will post.. i dont even have to measure the 18x20.. that thing is going to be 320 or something unstrung. back to wilson...
i ordered with string from Wilson; so that’s a mistake I made, I can’t send them back even if I keep the plastic on it, right? I can’t give a good reason to send them backA big thank you for posting the specs. I can’t believe they are selling the frames like that. QC is terrible.
I really hoped Wilson would put more pride in their Pro line. I was not expecting perfection but at least tighter tolerances. If enough people send the frames back they might try to improve their QC.
I don’t know. Probably not returnable because of the strings. However some people had great spec frames so you might be lucky. Fingers crossed for you.i ordered with string from Wilson; so that’s a mistake I made, I can’t send them back even if I keep the plastic on it, right? I can’t give a good reason to send them back
Any ideas about the price?
Wow, strange I just checked Wilson Japan's website. They don't seem to have any of the Pro Labs racquets for sale. I would have assumed they would since Wilson has a website there. Huh.. Maybe later in a few days.Thank you for the good idea.
Is there anyone who can send 4 new Ultra Pro (16 x 19) Grip 3 to Japan with the grip film intact?
I will pay by PayPal.
You could ask them on FB or twitter. The racquets seem to be fairly priced in Aus, especially the UP 16x19, for new premium racquet offerings. Don't know anything about the exchange rate right now. Depends I guess if you want to wait then.Since the Japanese agency sells Wilson tennis products in Japan, there is a possibility that UP will not come to Japan.
Ultra Tour was also released in limited quantities.
Layups between an 18x20 and 16x19 have differences due to the drill pattern.So any confirmation that except H22 mold Blades Pro share also exact or similar layuop – both 18x20 and 16x19 – or something new? Any stiffness rating so far? Also what about RA and layup of H19 16x19 – is it the same as Ultra Tour but with 16x19 string pattern?
Could you please check how the hairpin looks on your Blade Pros? I mean pop open the trapdoor to check whether it's flat rectangular or octagonal shaped like the picture in this thread. Thanks!Layups between an 18x20 and 16x19 have differences due to the drill pattern.
I will check when i get it back from the stringer. I know i popped it open when i first got it to check if there is foam or silicone. Only found foam but wasn’t looking for pin shape. You posted that picture and it was two regular blades not BP as you said.Could you please check how the hairpin looks on your Blade Pros?
