Introducing the Clash 100 Pro v2! Like the previous generation, the 100 Pro v2 is a uniquely flexible modern player's racquet that combines spin-friendly targeting with impressive pocketing and buttery feedback. It also swings heavier than the standard Clash 100, making it better at redirecting higher levels of pace or driving the ball through the court. That said, aggressive all-court players will find more than enough speed for whipping up spin or reacting quickly at net. For 2022 Wilson reinforces the upper hoop to raise the sweetspot and create a more solid and responsive hitting surface. Wilson has also updated the string pattern from 16x19 to 16x20, resulting in slightly more precise exit trajectory. As with the first generation of Clash racquets, the Clash Pro v2 is defined by Wilson's innovative frame technology. Named FORTYFIVE this technology not only enables the racket to bend optimally across different strokes styles (traditional and modern), but it also softens impact without compromising the crisp and connected feel that is so crucial to control. Recommended to experienced players who want speed, spin and power without having to sacrifice feel.

Comments: I am a 3.5 all court player. I demoed this racquet, and was not impressed. It was hard to know where the ball was going off the string bed. If you do not hit with heavy topspin most times the ball is going long. Serves were not as strong, and the racquet is unstable when returning hard hit balls. If you have arm issues this would be a good racquet, other wise go with something else.

Comments: Unique. I expected a softer, heavier Blade, but it's not that. The Clash Pro is its own singular thing. Very soft on the arm. Massive power, almost a trampoline. Very little control. Normally "Pro" implies control but here it seems only to mean high weight. The extreme head light balance does make it more maneuverable than you'd expect but it's not whippy, so it is difficult to generate the spin you need to control the power. It's more of a plow through machine. Big thumping serves are easy to execute but I think few people will be able to control groundstrokes well with this racquet.

Comments: I am now a long time user of the first version of this racquet. On the side, I've been testing different racquets from different makes to prevent missing the next big thing and only to find I was looking for the Clash Pro in those racquets. The feel is addictive once you get use to it and you can't play with anything else because there's nothing like that. Me, like many other users, craved for a little more control in this racquet and Wilson gave us the V2. I do recognize this new version has more control built in and more plow, meaning I can produce a heavier penetrating ball. The comfort feel is still there although slightly stiffer all the time, meaning a more consistent stringbed. What do you loose? First, in my humble opinion, the Clash DNA, which was that soft pillow feel when producing touch shots and the stiff string bed when hitting hard behavior. That is definitely lost and therefore I believe the new version is a different racquet that inherits some of the Clash DNA like the Blade did. This makes the V2 a worse racquet? No! The V2 is an awesome racquet and will appeal more to those who declined the V1. I must say I'm torn...I still don't know which one I like best. The main differences are in feel, in string bed behavior. I think I'm able to shape the ball better on the V1 and also feel more connected on the backhand side. On the other hand, the plow and my better serves with the V2 call for a switch. The V2 is already my main racquet in doubles but in singles I'm torn. Aesthetically, Wilson nailed it on the V2...just fantastic! I'm 4.5 to 5.0 and hit a two hander on both sides
