You know, Fischer was good for quality, think Pacific also, Volkl and Yonex also great, and Dunlop also. Wilson is not close by quality.
This seems or appears to be the reality. The problem Wilson have is that they have many different models which are marketed everywhere so they are widely exposed to consumers who buy a lot of them. The blade CV i think were rushed on to the market on masse and they have had a lot of problems with balance variation, so much that many retailors here either sent them back or had each one re-measured and labelled so customers could choose 2 frames with the most similar specs. The older burn FST which was well finished had problems when you put them on a stringing machine and they got stuck on there when it was time to take them off so you had to be very careful with them.
It's kind of strange because the current range of CV racquets look very upmarket. The black RF's look beautiful and the blades, burn snd Ultra's very distinctive.
Pacific at the other end of the scale have very limited market exposure so while their quality seems great they aren't out there in large numbers so it's much harder to gauge. The only problem I noticed with them was in the older X Feel Pro's handle system had a problem where the pallet screws broke. The current X Tour 97 has a different system.
Yonex is brand whose sales are on the increase so their quality will be there to be seen. I've only noticed some problems with their DR light range with the grips coming apart snd having to be rewrapped.
Volkl, which I have had a fair bit of experience with has been very good. The only thing I,be noticed with these frames is that over a few months of using them on a daily basis that the pallets shrink, so you need to replace them.
While I have no experience with the new Dunlop frames the biomimetic range going back a few years were very good and this is more impressive considering they were much cheaper to buy in the first place.
