For 2016, Wilson is adding two new lines to its already impressive range: the Wilson Burn FST and the Wilson Ultra!
The Wilson Burn FST will be offered alongside the regular Burn line and is designed for baseliners. The Wilson Burn FST series features faster, more aerodynamic frames that offer more control than the regular Burn rackets. The new Wilson Ultra racket silo is the successor to the Wilson Juice
line and is for the all-courter, the player who covers the entire court. This line will be offered alongside the more power-oriented Ultra XP line.
Wilson's racket lines for 2016 (see here for an overview of Wilson's 2016 collection) based on the Wilson Player ID are as follows:
Wilson has also temporarily brought back the Pro Staff Classic 6.1 25th Anniversary Edition and the Six.One Team 95 to the collection. However, neither of these models is part of the regular collection.
Wilson Burn FST
The Wilson Burn FST line is made for baseliners. The FST designation stands for Fast Speed Technology. A new 8-sided frame design with less air resistance for faster swings is intended to achieve this. High-performance carbon fiber creates stiffer shafts and therefore more power. The X2 Ergo handle allows the grip shape to be adjusted. This is ideal for the modern player with a two-handed backhand. Initial tests show that the Wilson Burn FST series is clearly more control-oriented than the regular Burn series and offers a distinctly different feel. All Wilson Burn FST models can be used with the Sony Smart Sensor. The flagship player for this line, if he recovers from his wrist injury, is Argentine power hitter Juan Martin del Potro.

Wilson Ultra
Feliciano Lopez and Victoria Azarenka are the players who will represent the new Wilson Ultra racket line. The Ultra racket line is the successor to the Juice series and is made for the so-called all-courter, the player who plays both from the baseline and at the net. This line is therefore designed to suit a wide range of players. The Wilson Ultra line combines power with comfort and features the following technologies: 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. All Wilson Ultra models can also be used with the Sony Smart Sensor.

The Wilson Ultra racket family, with specifications:
- Ultra 97: 97 sq/inch, 310 g, 31.5 balance, 16/19 string pattern, RA 64
