Wilson Burn 100S v5.0

The open 18x16 string pattern is designed to increase ball bite, which helps you generate more topspin and slice compared to a traditional, denser pattern. It allows the strings to move more freely, providing extra rotation on the ball.

Yes, the Burn 100S v5.0 is specifically built for aggressive baseline play. Its stiff frame construction and 100-square-inch head size provide the explosive power needed to dictate points from the back of the court.

With a stiffness rating of 73 RA, this frame offers a very crisp, responsive feel at impact. While it provides excellent power, players who prefer a softer, more dampened feel might find it firmer than traditional control-oriented racquets.

With a strung weight of 11.3 ounces and a 1-point head-light balance, the racquet is designed to be quick through the air. It is agile enough for fast-paced rallies and reactive play at the net.

The carbon fiber graphite composition provides a high strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring the frame remains durable while maintaining the rigidity necessary for high-performance power.

We recommend stringing this racquet between 50 and 60 pounds. Staying within this range will help you balance the power of the frame with the control benefits provided by the open string pattern.
