Available in the US from February and in Europe from March: the Wilson Burn tennis rackets! Wilson is launching a completely new racket line for the 2015 season, the Burn. This line is specially made for baseliners and is headlined by rising stars Kei Nishikori (Japan) and Simona Halep (Romania). The old Steam racket silo has been incorporated into this line.
What's new? What's so special about the Burn racket line and what makes this line so suitable for baseliners?
- High performance carbon fiber: added to the frame, especially around the center for extra stiffness and therefore extra power
- Parallel drilling: this way of drilling the holes for tubing and strings creates a larger sweet spot
- X2 shaft: longer shaft ideal for double-handed backhands. More feel and easier to switch to more extreme grip positions
- Spin effect technology: used in 3 of the 5 frames in this racket family. The more open stringing pattern gives more grip on the ball for more spin
