Detail

The limited, pre-release cosmetic of the wildly popular v.1 Clash racquet. This version of the clash is extremely rare as it was a prototype paint job. A uniquely flexible racquet with explosive speed, easy spin and great feel. At 11 ounces strung and boasting a low 312-RDC swingweight, this stick is ideal for the intermediate player who wants ultra easy acceleration. What makes the Clash special is what lies under the hood. This racquet has one of the lowest and most arm-friendly flex points on the market. As a result it has better pocketing, control and touch than a typical modern player's racquet. According to Wilson, the flexible feel is achieved with the help of two innovative material technologies FreeFlex and StableSmart, both of which help deliver the benefits of flexibility without compromising the crisp and solid feel that modern power players crave. From the baseline, the Clash 100 offers a seductive blend of comfort and speed. Although it lacks the power and plow-through of the heavier Tour model, this racquet's easy acceleration will enable you to take very aggressive cuts at the ball when going for extra pace and spin. You'll also find it easy to scramble on defense or crank winners on the run. This racquet's impressive speed continues at net where it plays great on reaction volleys. It doesn't give you the stability and mass-based pop of a traditionally weighted player's racquet, but it rewards clean mechanics with good results, and there's more than enough feel for executing sharp angles or malicious droppers. Thanks to how easily this racquet explodes through contact, aggressive servers should find enough power and spin to impose their will. With its raw speed and outstanding feel, Wilson has created an impressive weapon for those who want a light player's racquet.
