Wilson Ultra Tour Tennis Racquet

Back with a sleeker, cleaner design, the new Wilson Ultra Tour brings added precision to a versatile racket in a poweroriented range. The new Wilson Ultra Tour is the model played by select Wilson tour players such as Gael Monfils. Returning to a box beam, the Ultra Tour has uncontaminated, modern design features that consist of clean lines, bold colour accents and a gloss finish. Bringing added precision to the versatile Ultra franchise, the Ultra is the only racket in the new Ultra line that features a dense string pattern, designed to provide overwhelming power with efficient performance. New technologies include the Power Rib throat geometry that optimises power through greater stability and stiffness, while the new Crush Zone grommet system compresses at impact to boost power and ball dwell time on the strings, resulting in a 15 increase in the racket hotspot compared to previous editions, for more explosive power. The new Ultra also features Countervail technology, a unique layer of carbon fibre within the frame of the racket that disperses the energy of the ball on impact, reducing vibration and minimising fatigue. The feel of the racket stays the same, but you expend less energy stabilising the arm during each shot. It really makes a huge cumulative difference according to a study conducted by the University of Minnesota, you experience 30 less racket vibration, fatigue is decreased by 10, and as a result you have 40 more control over shots when nearing exhaustion. Its proven in other sports too bike manufacturers use it in frames built for the gruelling Tour de France.
