REFURBISHED FRAME
Freshly strung in Eco Rough
Fresh over-grip
Grip size 4
Frame Grading: Excellent
Countervail
Although it features the cosmetic of the 2016 Blade, this racquet lacks Countervail, giving it the crisp and connected feel of earlier generations. It also features classic Blade ingredients, including a Graphite/Basalt layup and 21mm box beam, giving it the excellent pocketing and ball feedback that we've come to expect from the Blade franchise. Other notable technologies include Parallel Drilling, which reduces string on frame friction for a more comfortable and forgiving hitting experience.
On groundstrokes, this racquet combines great feel with impressive spin-potential. Shot placement comes easy and the near 330-RDC swingweight comes in handy when redirecting higher levels of pace or driving the ball powerfully through the court. At net, the Blade 98 16x19 v6 feels stable on block volleys, and there is enough touch for crafting malicious droppers. This stick also shines on serve where you'll find enough spin and precision to swing for power.
