The Wilson Burn 100S is specially designed for baseliners who want to dominate the game with a lot of power and spin. This racket is part of the new Burn line of Wilson, where 3 of the 5 rackets have a more open string pattern for extra spin, including the Burn 100S.
Racket specifications:
- Brand : Wilson
- Model : Burn 100S
- Blade size : 100 sq/inch
- Weight : 303 gr

In addition to well-known technical applications such as Parallel Drilling (enlarges the sweet spot) and Spin Effect Technology (open stringing pattern for more grip and spin on the ball), there are two new technical applications in this racket: the X2 longer shaft is ideal for double-handed backhands and makes switching to more extreme grip positions easier and high-performance carbon fiber used around the heart of the racket provides extra stiffness and power. This racket has an RA value (stiffness) of 73. The balance is slightly more towards the top.

The Wilson Burn 100S is set to compete with the Babolat Pure Aero , the successor to the Babolat Aeropro Drive and with the Head Graphene XT Extreme MP A and indeed offers what Wilson promises: spin and power! The fairly stiff frame provides this extra power, where the 18/16 string pattern provides more grip on the ball and a longer ball/string contact, making this power controllable through the extra spin. So are you willing to sacrifice a little bit of comfort for a huge dose of power and spin? Then definitely check out the Wilson Burn 100S!
