Wilson racket collection 2016

For 2016, Wilson offers tennis players a choice of no fewer than 6 racket families. New to the lineup are the new Burn FST family, which will be carried alongside the regular Burn line, and the Ultra and Ultra XP families, the former replacing the Juice racket line. You can find an overview of the Wilson racket collection for 2016 below.

Burn FST – Speed and Control
The Wilson Burn FST line is made for the Baseliner. The FST addition stands for Fast Speed Technology. A new 8-sided frame design with less air resistance should provide faster swings. High-performance carbon fiber provides stiffer shafts and therefore more power. With the X2 Ergo handle, the shape of the grip can be adjusted. This is ideal for the modern player with a two-handed backhand. The poster boy for this line is, provided he recovers from his wrist injury, the Argentine hard hitter Juan Martin del Potro.

Wilson-Burn-FST-99S-side
  • Burn FST 95: 95 sq/inch, 320 gr, 32.0 balance, 16/19 string pattern
  • Burn FST 99: 99 sq/inch, 310 gr, 31.5 balance, 18/19 string pattern
  • Burn FST 99S: 99 sq/inch, 299 gr, 30.5 balance, 18/17 string pattern

Burn – Power and Spin
The Wilson Burn racket line was also created for the Baseliner and offers the best combination of power and spin. Compared to the Burn FST line, these frames have a rounder frame design and are therefore more power-oriented. In 2016, the Burn 97 will be added. This is the racket with the specs of Kei Nishikori. As soon as the specifications of this racket are known, we will add it. The Burn 100 LS has now also been released in a pink colorway.

  • Burn 100 S: 100 sq/inch, 303 gr, 33.0 balance, 18/16 string pattern
  • Burn 100 LS: 100 sq/inch, 280 gr, 32.5 balance, 18/16 string pattern
  • Burn 100 ULS: 100 sq/inch, 260 gr, 33.5 balance, 18/16 string pattern
  • Burn 100: 100 sq/inch, 300 gr, 32.5 balance, 16/19 string pattern
  • Burn 100 Team: 100 sq/inch, 267 gr, 33.0 balance, 16/20 string pattern

Pro Staff – Classic Control & Feel
The new Pro Staff series was released in September 2016. Read all about the very latest edition of the Wilson Pro Staff here!
With the return of the Pro Staff, Wilson offers the Attacker or attacking player classic ball feel and control in a modern package for a little extra power and spin. The latter is achieved by the 97 sq/inch head size in combination with more open/dynamic string patterns. In autumn 2015, two new rackets were added to the existing range: The Pro Staff 97S by Grigor Dimitrov and the lightest frame in this line, the Pro Staff 97 ULS.

Blade – Control for big hitters
The new Wilson Blade CV (Countervail) 2017 is coming in November 2016! Read all about the latest Wilson Blade here!
The Wilson Blade racket line is made for the Attacker (the attacking player) who likes to take the ball early. Players with a large, full swing who already generate a lot of power themselves will appreciate the fine control and stability of this line.

Ultra – Allround

Feliciano Lopez and Victoria Azarenka are the players who will carry the new Wilson Ultra racket line. The Ultra racket line is the successor to the Juice series and is made for the so-called Allcourter, the player who operates both from the baseline and at the net. This line is therefore made to serve a wide range of players. The Wilson Ultra line combines power with comfort and includes the following technical features: high-performance carbon fiber for stiffer shafts and therefore more power, Cushion Foam in the handle for extra vibration dampening, and Parallel Drilling for a larger sweet spot.

  • Ultra 97: 97 sq/inch, 310 gr, 31.5 balance, 16/19 string pattern
  • Ultra 100: 100 sq/inch, 300 gr, 32.0 balance, 16/19 string pattern
  • Ultra 103S: 103 sq/inch, 290 gr, 33.5 balance, 16/15 string pattern
  • Ultra 108: 108 sq/inch, 280 gr, 33.5 balance, 16/19 string pattern

Ultra XP – Power & Comfort
In 2016, Wilson will introduce a new racket line for the Allcourter , the Wilson Ultra XP. The XP addition in this new Wilson racket family stands for Xtra Power. Ultra High Performance Carbon Fiber provides extra stiffness in the Ultra XP frames, good for extra power. In addition, Wilson has released a new frame design for this racket line. This so-called Power Profile Frame Geometry provides less air resistance and super direct ball contact. All frames that become available for the European market feature Wilson Spin Effect Technology. This means: extra open string patterns for more grip on the ball for more spin and margin in your shots. All Wilson Ultra XP rackets are 1/4 inch longer, everything for the extra power. In addition to power, the frames also excel in comfort. Wilson will be able to perfectly serve players with a more compact swing with the new Ultra XP family.What stands out about the specs is that the Wilson Ultra XP rackets are light, with maneuverability and power being the most important starting points. The balance of the rackets is slightly more towards the top for extra mass through the ball for more shot power.

  • Wilson Ultra XP 100 S: 100 sq/inch, 290 gr, 33.0 balance, 16/15 string pattern, 27.25 inch length
  • Wilson Ultra XP 100 LS: 100 sq/inch, 266 gr, 34.0 balance, 16/15 string pattern, 27.25 inch length
  • Wilson Ultra XP 110 S: 110 sq/inch, 265 gr, 35.0 balance, 18/16 string pattern, 27.25 inch length
