TBH I'd hope you let Coach Rob talk a bit more. He's being very polite and only speak when you queue him in but I could tell there were times when he wanted to elaborate but it's your channel he didn't want to steal your thunder (Maybe I'm wrong and he's just a quieter guy in general, but as the host of the video you could get him open up a bit more). Also I think the overall rhythm can be faster with the content more concise. E.g. we don't need to discuss what the color of the new pro staff racket is, we just want to know what're the specific player types and use cases best suited for each racket line, understand the rationale behind creating this specific line (blade, pro staff, burn, etc...).

Thank you for the full explanation. It was very informative 👍

He failed to actually explain the lines as per Wilson Pro staff - precision & feel Blade - control & feel Ultra - power and control Burn - power Shift - spin line Clash - soft and power

Clash is a spin frame. Very wide string pattern. Tons of spin but short string life.

I loved the endpiece in the rain !

Thank you! Very helpful!

Best wilson review by far!!! Great video👍 you two are also super friendly and match very well... good job guys💪

Harry, you forgot to mention my beloved Clash 98 V2 😄

Curious as to why 2 samples of the Shift and Burn racquets shown were new with placards and already strung ?

Blade 104 is a great racquet to teach with!

Hello Harry! Im pedro from Portugal 🇵🇹 and i buy me a couple pro staff Ls v14 , but i know that Wilson doesn’t sell it on they’re web site or tenis shops, can you figure that out for me??? Thanks in advanced!!! Love your videos! Thanks from Portugal 🇵🇹

Flexibility discussed was not in Racket specs but in the type of player who could use it.

can you do this for babolat or head?

If you don’t mind what is the name of your shop because if I ever go to the west coast I’d like to visit the store and give you some business

Hi Harry. I´m very confused. You said the Prostaff 97 v14 is the most flexible racket of the line, but it´s stiffness rating is 66. Blade´s rating is 61, Clash´s is 60, Shift´s is 68. So clearly the most flexible is the Clash, then the Blade and then the Prostaff 97 v14. According to the stiffness rating, the Prostaff is on the stiffer side.

@@user-be5qg7mr1s The wide string pattern on the 100s are the source of most of the supposed unpredictability. Used properly (Wilson specifically marketed it for "the modern vertical swing path") it's very predictable. It was never intended for flat hitters, though many buy it for the arm-friendliness. You need to be able to put plenty of rpms on the ball to make it predictable.

Wasn't it Prince that had the three swing length guys? Or did Wilson do it too?

Thanks guys, but I would really like a clearer explanation of the differences between the Pro Staff and the Blade.

@franzjupp1187

The PS gives you an exact information where hit the ball and you immediatly know where it is going. So precision but less marging for misshits. The Blade may give more power and is more forgiving but doesn´t give that precise feedback.

How is the Pro Staff the most "Flexible" line of racquets!? The Clash line is far more flexible. I don't think the term you want for the Pro Staff is flexible. Maybe versatile would be a better term.

Do you mean RF97 V14 will coming this year?

Tennis shops need a room with a net where customers can test a racquet out, similar to what golf shops have a driving range into a net where you can test a club.

Can you please do this for head

There's actually a Blade 98S v8 not available in the US, so the Burns aren't the only racquet with the S pattern left.

The Shift is nothing like a Clash. It's far less forgiving of bad technique.

Clash is the most popular in my club

Wilson has the best/soft feel racquets. Too bad their quality control sucks on specs.

@@louiselouboutin9045 The Pro Staff is by no means a 'beginner's racket.' In the trade, 'beginner' is a term for people who haven't yet learned to make a full swing (and so cannot generate their own power) and cannot consistently put the ball in the sweet spot in the string bed. A naturally gifted person who is able to do these things the first time she has a racket in her hand would not be classified as a beginner for this purpose.

No prep for videos, just always winging it. That's the American way... It can work but tennisspin seems to crash most of the time. So many mistakes.. - pro staff is not flexible - blade has a bigger sweet spot than pro staff - clash 98 is also available, so what they said it's not the whole line - not only the burn has the S (spin version). I've seen the latest pro staff in spin effect version as well. 97LS
