The Blade 98 16x19 v9 incorporates several key technologies to deliver its signature feel and performance:
- Parallel Drilling: This grommet construction creates a more consistent and forgiving string bed response, significantly enlarging the sweet spot for more reliable shot-making.
- FORTYFIVE: A patent-protected frame layup that provides a more connected-to-the-ball feel, complementing modern, vertical swing paths. This material boosts both flexibility and stability without compromise throughout your swing.
- Braided Graphite + Basalt: This elastic and reactive material blend enhances the racquet's flex, increasing ball contact time with the strings for improved feel and greater control over your shots.
- Top Grip Taper: A tapered grip design offers a better feel for top-handed grip placement, especially beneficial for players utilizing a two-handed backhand.
- DirectConnect: The carbon fibre handle extends directly to connect with the end cap, resulting in improved feel and enhanced torsional stability for a solid impact.
- StableFeel: This new Blade technology delivers an enhanced, firmer feel that increases overall stability and creates a deeper connection to the ball. Designed for avid players, it provides a 'sharper Blade' experience for those looking to refine their game.
