New Clash Racquet

Wilson Tennis has just announced a new tennis racquet that will be released early 2019. While I don’t have a ton of information of this new Clash Racquet, but I can tell you it’s been under development for quite a while.

The new racquet has been playtested at the highest levels (Top ATP/WTA players) and has hit the local courts for a more “grassroots” perspective. The response has been pretty phenomenal from all people who hit with Wilson’s Clash racquet.

Wilson has provided me with some small insights from the playtests:
• Through thousands of elite and amateur tennis player interviews, focus groups and feedback sessions over the past several years, Wilson heard three central needs from today’s tennis racket — power, control, and feel.
• To create this racket, Wilson broke apart every element of the traditional racket design – from the throat to the beam to the strings to the head – to look for novel ways to deliver these critical attributes to players.
• The result of that work is a racket with an incredible mix of high-performance playability and accuracy, which gives players ultimate confidence to hit the shots they want to make and know it is going in.

What does the Wilson Clash racquet look like?

Wilson Clash Specs

Unfortunately I have not received any information regarding Clash racquet specs, it looks (visually, at least) like a cross between a Wilson Ultra Tour and a Wilson Burn 95 CV and those specs are:

Wilson Ultra Tour
Head Size	97
Strung Weight	323.1g
Balance	32.41cm
Swingweight	319
Stiffness	63
Beam Width	21mm
String Pattern	18×20

Wilson Burn 95 CV
Head Size	95
Strung Weight	328.85g
Balance	33.53cm
Swingweight	341
Stiffness	68
Beam Width	22mm
String Pattern	16×20

And this is purely speculation. I mean, I don’t have any way of finding out what the specs are for the Wilson Clash racquet…not yet, at least. When I do get my hands on one, I will absolutely update this post with the correct stats.

Wilson plans to have a global release date for the Clash racquet on February 1, 2019. So keep an eye out!
