Wilson Kblade Tour?

Question

I was wondering if the wilson kblade tour is any good im not buying but everyone in my tennis team says its great but im not sure, does anyone have an opinion on this?

Answer 1

i believe every racquet is different to every player. your friends might find the k blade suits their style, but not necessarily suits you as well. what we need is a racquet, with which we can really perform at our best. otherwise it would be nice to know what racquet other players use, and understand their style (possibly their weaknesses as well) to our advantage. Ziel has already shown you many aspects of this racquet, and you can read more in tennis-warehouse.com. borrow the racquet if possible and try it for yourself. who knows, probably it's what you've been looking for. hope it helps :)

Answer 2

Sure, it's a good racquet for some people.  But just because they see a new guy win a major tournament with a certain racquet doesn't automatically mean it's "good".

It's a very demanding racquet, so if you can't produce your own power, it's a bad racquet for you.  Also, the small head size makes it bad for people with inconsistent strokes.  It also has a fairly dense string pattern for it's head size, so spin won't be quite as abundant (but spin should be created by the player rather than the racquet).

Basically, everything about the Kblade tour says "control".  If you can create enough power and are consistent, then you'll find all the control you need in this racquet.  It's a good racquet for this kind of player.
