Great review! Just FYI,I have the previous Ultra Tour v2 and I'm pretty sure it's also got a glossy finish, not like the matte finish on the Blade v7 - which is annoying because the gloss paint chips whereas the matte one tends to just scratch instead...
You are right! I was thinking of the Ultra 100 CV 🤦🏼♂️
The gloss paint on V2 was terrible, it would flake or chip at the slightest impact and also if folk removed lead carelessly. How does the paint hold on up the Pro Jonas? Cheers
Thank you, very good video. Have to complement you, your forehand became something that you see on tennis channel 👍.
I tested this racquet roughly a month ago now. I was disappointed/underwhelmed and was expecting much more. Also, the quality of the paint was the worst I've ever seen on a so called premium racquet.
My demo was brand new and I could already see areas where paint was about to start peeling away.
It's true I didn't tinker with it too much. I only added 2.5g weight at both 3&9 as that was a recommended set up from a friend. And I didn't have the opportunity to test a variety of strings and tensions.
Nothing really wrong with it just like that; I think I was expecting much more is part of the issue.
For anybody considering something like this, a custom Angell 97 to me is far superior, both in quality, but most importantly playability.
Cheers
🎾🎾
can you demo pro labs ?
@@ssportslivetvstreaming I don’t think so lol this guy probably got a normal ultra
Great racquet...After some testing, traded my blade 98 V6 for the Ultra pro.
This is getting weird. I committed to the head pro tour but I’ve now come to realise it’s a bit too demanding. So I’m trying my best to stay with the ultra pro I recently bought. 6 grams at 3 & 9, leather grip. Head mlt at 25kg, lynx tour 23.5kg. Great set up
Definitely the best I've seen you hit, Jonas. The shots look more controlled and slightly heavier. Might be the right racquet for you. ;)
Thanks! Yes, maybe!
No, was the rival, your friend's shots had not weight, thats the reason you look so confortable.
Hey man, your strokes look like you improved a lot. Especially your forehand. good review! good vid! good hitting! keep up the awesome vids man, I love hearing your input on rackets!
I agree with other guys here, Jonas your forehand looks great. What did you do to change it? Timing looks better.
Strikes look markedly more timed and snappy with this one - I'll have to try it now! :)
how does this modded ultra tour compare to rackets like the yonex vcore pro HD or the last 6.1 95? im currently using the RF97 and id like to add new flavours to my racket bag
Hi Jonas - your shots are looking really good with this racquet! I was wondering how you would compare it (and the PT 2.0 for that matter) to the Dunlop CX 200 Tour you used to play with (including any requisite customizations of course).
Good solid hitting 💪!
that forehand is looking good!
WHAT A RAQUET!!
Nice review, looks like a solid racquet after customisation! How does it compare to Angell Custom TC97 18X20?
I would say it has less flex and more stable volleys but is perhaps slightly more difficult to swing
I have 2x Angell Custom TC 97 (16x19) & really there's little comparison.
I commented above that this Wilson Ultra v3 was very underwhelming. I guess it really needs a fair amount of weight and plenty of tinkering to get it decent. Plus the quality of paint was really bad & I've never noticed or seen paint on a brand new racquet look about to start peeling.
So, Angell on quality alone just well in front.
Cheers
You may have already answered this question in a previous video, but what does your hitting partner play with?
Volkl logo on the strings??
Mike uses a Volkl V-Engine MP strung with HEAD Velocity MLT 1.30 at 25 kg
@@Tennisnerd Cool, thanks. Sorry to ask an off-topic question, but I was really curious.
Thanks for the video:)! It was amazing! I have a question that I am using blade pro 18 20 and love it. I tried 16 19 as well but I prefer 18 20. However, I am now considering to switch ultra pro 16 19 or 18 20. Which strings pattern do you recommend?
Hey Jonas, why didn't you end up sticking with this racquet? Seems like you're leaning more thicker beam 16x19 these days?
Very light looking when you swing it . Defo need to make it a lead tape monster .
Ezone 98 spec range... How do you feel they compare?
You are the only one on the net who said that its a low power racket.
Do you think I need to costumize it?
Yes, I tend to repeat myself!
Meh, Pro Tour 2.0 puts more action on the ball, I've had some issues putting the point away with the Ultra Tour. PT2.0 also feels more concise and connected for all-court game.
Strokes look at lot cleaner
Great video Jonas!! Thanks a lot man! How does the original Ultra Tour compare vs the PT2.0? Which is plusher and flexier?
Thanks! The PT 2.0 is more flexy/plush but has a smaller sweet spot - the customized Ultra is a bit easier to use
@@Tennisnerd Thanks man...I meant the original Ultra Tour, since you mention the Ultra Pro is a tad stiffer due to the new pj most likely....PT2.0 still more flexy and plush? Or somewhere in between the two Ultra 97 versions?
i dont actually understand how a pure graphite frame like this could be such a lower weight than other pure graphite frames like the original head radical midplus or the prince graphite mid
I don't get releasing a racquet that requires customization for power and stability. Give me one, let me work on the other. Bonus points if you get both at least close.
Hey Jonas I was wondering if you were thinking of testing the 16x19 version of this frame as im very curious about your thoughts?
Hey, I hope to do so at some point - not easy to get it shipped to Malta tho
hi jonas, this is pretty much the kblade tour 93 isnt it? the ultra pro has a 1mm thicker beam, a bigger head at 97, but its got the same string pattern, a similar swing weight, and it seems like it plays the same, as it is a whippy kind of racket uncustomized. I am having trouble finding a second kblade tour 93 for a good price, so this might be a good update/replacement. Do you think that is the case? thanks in advance if you ever get around to answering :)
so did you have to get this from the pro labs site? have you compared the 18 20 and 16 19?
Hej! Wilson Pro Staff 97LS eller Wilson Clash 100, vilket skulle du rekommendera? Spelat i många år, men endast för nöje, ca 20 gånger per år. Spelar ganska flackt, men tänkte börja träna mer nu så kommer kanske börja spela med lite mer spin.
Något annat rack i Wilsonfamiljen som du tror passar mig bättre?
Tack på förhand och tack för en grym kanal! /John
i might switch do a babolat pure strike from my wilson burn. All depends on if wilson wows me with the 2020 burn in september
Not sure the Burn returns?
@@Tennisnerd it does.
@@Tennisnerd wilson replied to my comment on instagram saying it comes out in September
Hi, if you have to choose to play with a racquet in stock form between this ultra pro, Blade 98 18x20 or Clash 98 wich you will take? Of this 3 wich one you think is a better racquet overall?
Can anyone answer how this racquet compares to the tecnifibre tfight 305 rs
I did just now :)
Do you know if the head shape is the same as the Head Pro Tour 2.0? or is it rounder like Prince teardrop? It's hard to truly tell when you dont see it in real life. I love my phantom 97P but I want a slightly thicker beam.... so im looking at this Wilson. But at the same time I dont like the ''tall" oval shape of the Head Pro Tour 2.0.
So was it customized with 2g on 12 and 4g on 3 and 4g on 9? Or was it 4g total for 3 & 9?
What about the 16x19 version from Wilson Pro Labs? What you think?
I will try it soon, hopefully.
Recently switched to this frame. Added lead and tungsten putty. Strung 18g poly at 48lbs. Can't find anything wrong but launch angle still lower than I'd like. Which strings/tension might raise launch angle? Natural Gut?
Go for a thin, shaped poly. 1.20 Hyper-G Soft of 1.15 Alu Power.
Your tension is 52 ?
hey, please let me know, is this very similar to h19 but slightly stiffer?
So, it had seemed that you were gravitating toward larger head-sizes and more spin-friendly string patterns. And yet now you're looking to switch to an 18x20 95 or 97... What happened? Just curious.
I played some matches and realized I couldn’t relax quite as much on my shots with a power/spin frame - I need to make some more technical adjustments to make that work.
@@Tennisnerd So, to paraphrase, you found the tweener/spin racquets just didn't fit your flatter game? Wow, to "relax" on shots--sadly a foreign concept to me (3.5 player)!
I believe the pro are less stiff. The
Stock models are 70
The Ultra Pro is 63 - the Ultra 100 is 70-ish
It looks like a great frame, but I just wouldn't buy anything from Wilson given their atrocious quality control. Conversely, I just received an Angell TC100 63RA which came right on specs (310g / 315mm balance). Why people keep on buying off the peg racquets with specs all over the place, when customised options exactly on specs are available at the same price or a marginal extra cost, is beyond me.
The Ultra Tour was glossy
He meets the ball when it is descending, not good...
