Which Wilson tennis racket should you choose?
Wilson has the widest line-up in tennis, and each family has a strong identity. Once you know what you're after — control, comfort, power or spin — the right model becomes obvious. Here's how to find your way.
Blade — the players' control frame
The Blade is Wilson's control racket, loved by strong club players. Flexible for a control frame, dense pattern, precision on tap. It asks you to supply your own power.
- Specs: 305 g unstrung · 98 in² · 16×19 or 18×20.
- Best for: advanced players with a grooved swing who want precision and feel over free power.
Clash — comfort first
The Clash is the softest frame on the market: it soaks up vibration and protects the arm while staying manoeuvrable. The obvious pick if you have any elbow or wrist sensitivity.
- Specs: 295 g unstrung · 100 in² · 16×19.
- Best for: comfort-first players, anyone prone to arm pain, or beginner-to-intermediate players wanting an easy, forgiving frame.
Ultra & Burn — power
The Ultra is Wilson's power racket: stiff frame, explosive launch, great for effortless depth. The Burn adds spin to the power for a more aggressive baseline game.
- Specs: 300 g unstrung · 100 in² · 16×19.
- Best for: offensive players who want easy power (Ultra) or power plus spin (Burn). Avoid if you're arm-sensitive.
Pro Staff — classic precision
The Pro Staff is Wilson's legendary frame (Federer's racket), built for touch and absolute control. Heavy and demanding, it rewards solid technique.
- Specs: 315 g unstrung · 97 in² · 16×19.
- Best for: advanced players with fast, clean strokes who want premium control and feel.
Defyer & Shift — the newer lines
The Defyer is all about spin and comfort: it grabs the ball, gives easy topspin and stays soft. The Shift, more flexible, aims for a blend of stability and manoeuvrability for a modern game.
The Defyer comes in four versions (100, 100L, 98 Pro, 100UL) — we break them all down in our dedicated Wilson Defyer guide.
