Wilson Clash 100 Pro v2 Tennis Racquet Review (arm-friendly with a new string pattern for 2022!)

[@Javi_C]

Been waiting for this! Thank you 😊

[@bojack3827]

This or the Twistpower Tour 310g? Which has the more control and best feel?

[@coachangelap.wilson824]

The clash series are great rackets overall, not to stiff, good manuverability, aesthetically good looking, good light upgraded tech in it, fem enough look❤works wonder when i slice deep into the court like RF😊

[@tonygareth221]

I use the v1 98 and it’s pretty good. Need arm friendly and a little help with power, although I hit fairly hard. Didn’t like the 100 in the v1 but I have not hit with any v2 frames yet. Some of my guys (students) need a 100 sq in head and this could be an option. Need 11 oz range

[@mwp1088]

Love the lobs Mark! I play with a DR100 (about a 3.0), how would something like this compare?

[@minhaoyue5386]

I reckon just get the 2020 ezone 100 if you like something similar

[@agradina]

100 pro v2 vs 100 v2 for strong intermediates player who plays on clay and is strong points are serve and backhand?

[@darioschmidt5031]

Hi which strings do you recommend for this racket? Best regards Dario

[@tenniswarehouse]

We enjoyed it with Luxilon ALU Power, or ALU Power Rough, at about 48 to 50 pounds. That said, it also plays well with a string like Wilson NXT Control, or even a hybrid, like Wilson Duo Power, but different tensions depending on the string. Troy, TW

Hey guys, I want to buy a Clash, and I'm not sure what to buy, the 100 pro or just Clash 100. I have some problems with elbow, so, for me is very important to be the best in this direction. I thank you anticipated for responding. :)

[@tenniswarehouse]

The 100 Pro is a bit heavier, and with the 16x20 pattern offers slightly more control, and feel. The Clash 100 is more maneuverable, and the 16x19 pattern allows for a bit easier access to spin. Troy, TW

[@barth9116]

I buy the Pro version and I'm very happy with it. I put a Alu-Power and my elbow it's much better, but now I want to try a multifilament Prince premier touch 17(1,25). Please give me a advice, how much tension should I put to be comfortable and to have a decent control also. Thanks!

[@s41magazine37]

I'm looking for a really whippy racket for my western, lefty forehand. Aside from this, what other rackets do you recommend? Currently using the babolat pure aero and I find it too balanced. I want something head light

[@tenniswarehouse]

I would either consider the head light balance, but also a lower swingweight, which is the spec that is most related to maneuverability.The Clash 100 will feel more maneuverable than this Pro version. Also the Prince Twistpower X100, Head Boom MP, and Solinco Blackout 300 are all nice and maneuverable, and provide easy power and spin. Troy, TW

[@s41magazine37]

@@tenniswarehouse thanks Troy. I appreciate you.

[@darioschmidt5031]

Hi TW, how compares it to the Yonex Vcore Pro 100?

[@tenniswarehouse]

The VCORE Pro 100 offers a bit more control and feel, and is also a bit lighter overall. The Clash 100 Pro provides a bit easier power, and a bit more of a dampened feel. Troy, TW

[@dimasprasetya1036]

I got to demo it last week. The launch angle is definitely not as high as the version 1

[@dimasprasetya1036]

@@cold_servo_pie I use the v1 pro also, I only get to use the v2 for 20 min. It feels more firm, feels like I can't get as much top spin on it and my forehand feels flatter if that makes sense. If you want it for the sweet paint job, the 98 v2 feels much closer to the V1 pro.

[@GeneralRock114]

The first version was like a “Box of Chocolate”, you didn’t know what you were going to get. For me, it was difficult to control no matter what string, tension, or stringing method (1 piece or 2) I used and it was a waste of money.

[@jorged4763]

Which is your racket of choice ?, (I am not sure to try any clash..) thanks

[@GeneralRock114]

@@jorged4763 I’ve tried a lot of different racquets. Currently, the racquet I use the most is new Yonex Vcore 100 plus. I also have the 98+ and several other ones. What I find best is to watch some of TW’s racquet reviews and demo some racquets because what’s best for one person might not be for someone else. I actually didn’t demo the clash Pro 100 and that was a mistake for me.

[@riccardofala]

Have they ever not liked a racket? any brands

[@tenniswarehouse]

Yep! There definitely are some racquets/shoes and strings we did not like. Also, we do set our team up for success, so if a player prefers a lighter racquet they aren't going to be playtesting the heaviest model in the family. Michelle, TW

[@theawebster1505]

If you read the written reviews there they are more honest. Michelle itself says there that while the Pro v1 was fun, the control is lacking and it is not suitable for competition matches. Which is exactly what I am experiencing right now :D From those comments it seems the control isn't much better on the v2, although the launch angle is definitely lower. I am trying the new VCORE 98 instead.

[@parvathube]

Mark is using a wrong grip for his single handed back hand. Thumb on the handle as if he is playing badminton

[@CR4WLFC]

Thanks. Are the power and launch angle exactly like the previous version? Also I read that they stiffened up the upper hoop of the racquet did any of you guys notice that?

[@tenniswarehouse]

@samcrew, Yes, some of the playtesters commented on the firmer feel (Mark hits on this a few times). I would say yes the launch angle has changed since the string pattern changed, but as we all noted, nothing crazy or noticeably different in our opinion. Michelle, TW

[@augustomorello2693]

En español porfa

[@coachangelap.wilson824]

Mark you need to grip your hand properly ....

[@m.k.7176]

So basically copied that beautiful Dunlop racket no originality
