Playing characteristics
The Wilson Blade 26 V9 is a great choice for the better youth player who plays green or who will soon be allowed to do so. The racket provides much more direct feedback than an aluminum or composite children's racket, making it ideal for ambitious youth. Other advantages of this full graphite racket are less vibration to the arm and a stronger, more durable frame. The 26 inch racket length is the largest junior racket length and therefore the last step towards the senior (27 inch) frames. 'Yellow' is also an excellent way to start with this. The Blade 26 comes in grip size 0. This is the best grip size for the vast majority of youth players between the ages of approximately 9 and 12 years. Have you been playing for about 2 years and do you already have a nice, full stroke? Then all teachers will be happy to switch you to a full graphite racket because it will allow you to grow much better!
The Blade 26 V9 has a nice slim flatbeam frame construction. This provides good feedback and a lot of ball feeling. The 100 sq/inch racket head provides a good mix of power, control and spin. This makes the Wilson Blade 26 an excellent choice for the good youth player who wants to continue growing.
