2024 Wilson Blade Junior 25 v9.0 100inch 16*19 245g

This racquet sits in the junior category and is designed around its primary performance strengths. The 100 in² head size boosts forgiveness and sweet spot size. A stiffness rating of 62 RA results in a softer, more dampened response at impact. With an unstrung weight of 245 g, the frame favors maneuverability. The 16x19 string pattern (semi open) influences spin access and launch angle. Performance-wise, it scores 60/100 for power, 80/100 for spin, and 40/100 for control, outlining its on-court behavior. Comfort levels are above average, supporting longer hitting sessions. The frame profile indicates a relatively low risk of arm-related discomfort. It is best suited for beginner players.

Across threads, the Wilson Blade line is commonly praised for its control-oriented feel, connected response, and confidence on full swings. Many posters describe it as relatively arm-friendly for a 'player' frame (depending on version), while also noting it can be less forgiving on off-center contact than larger, more powerful frames.
