The lightest and most manoeuvrable racket in the Blade v8 line-up, the Blade 100UL v8 is the arm-friendly answer for tennis players seeking commanding feel from their weapon. Equipped with FORTYFIVE° and DirectConnect to increase flexibility, stability and overall feel with every swing, this frame makes a statement with its dynamic appearance made possible by a unique colour-shifting elastic finish. Transitioning players and anyone with a history of elbow or shoulder ailments should give this frame a hard look, especially if their swing path mimics the modern, vertical trajectory commonly used in today's game.

The TWM Pro says... 'One of the most popular rackets on the market and a favourite on the professional tour. the Blade 100UL enables all of the racket's usual attributes in a lighter, 265g package, ideal for junior players or a player with arm problems. Whilst testing, the V8 offered noticeably more power than the previous version, and a little more spin, without losing the famed control this racket offers.'
