Ratings and comparisons for all racquets can be found in Racquetworld's Technology/Ratings Section

Racquetworld's Durability Rating:    94.00

Racquetworld's Power Rating:     Age 24- 95.55, Age 35- 94.56, Age 45+ 93.58

Racquetworld's Control Rating #1 (Front Court):   96.53

Control 1 (Front Court) represents how the racquet handles upfront in the court.  We’re basically looking at how certain components stacked together produce good (or bad) racquet maneuverability.  To figure this out we look at the weight, balance point, and shape of the frame.  We throw all this info into Pat’s brain along with a couple hours of hit testing and out pops the rating.  This value is useful especially for doubles players who find themselves covering the upfront court a lot.  It’s also good to know if you’re a good server and find yourself quickly putting away returns off your serve without leaving front middle court.

Racquetworld's Control Rating #2 (Back Court):  95.05

Control 2 (Back Court)  represents the traditional control rating when taking a full shot from mid to back court.  Our goal with control is to redirect the Force of the ball.  We again focus on weight, balance point, shape, string pattern and tension, frame stiffness and on court experience. 

Racquetworld's Overall Rating:   Age 24- 95.49, Age 35- 95.00, Age 45+ 94.51

Racquetworld's General Notes:

Wilson had 2 high end racquets come out in the 2006-2007 season.  These are called the nRage (165 grams) and the nBlade (175 grams).  There are a couple striking features in the new frames.  The upgraded throat area design was borrowed from a design for the wings of a fighter jet...these swept back additions add a stiffness to the throat area that has been missing in previous models.  Wilson has also adapted to the "concave" frame design feature that allow for a thinner air cutting feel.  The color scheme is a sure winner. 

These are now under $99 and are possibly the best deal on the market from Wilson.

Available in the SS (smaller) grip size only.

If you're unsure about your model or weight...try our DEMO program.

I would recommend changing the grip to a Python (Our favorite), or Head TackiMac  for the added traction to prevent slippage.  The Racquetworld Grommet Tape upgrade ($1) can save you $$ in the long run as sometimes strings break from the grommet being worn down.  For those who don't know what the grommet is, it's the plastic piece at the top of the racquet that the strings go through.  When you hit the wall and floor this gets worn down.

The Prince Premier string upgrade is recommended because factory string is less playable/durable then the Prince Premier string we suggest.  At the time of purchase, the Prince Premier restring upgrade is $21.95.  It's normally $36 if you mailed the racquet to us later so you save $14 if you choose the upgrade right away.

If you choose a vibration dampener go with the Ektelon Silencer (Our favorite), Head Megasorb, Gamma Worm or the BBB (Big Bad Band).

The wristlacer black is the default wrist tether that comes on your racquet at no charge.  If you want to change colors, a small fee of $2.95 will be added for switching.

A question we get everyday is "What is Grommet Tape?"  It's a piece of tape that goes over the head (bumper) of your racquet.  Sometimes you need a restring because of a broken bumper.  For an extra buck to add this, it could save you $25-40!!

We get follow up calls/emails everyday thanking us for the upgrades as they really help bring out the performance of the racquet.
