Description

The Clash 98 v2, the follow-up to the popular and redefining v1, brings more consistency, sustainability and an updated design suitable for intermediates to advanced players looking for a very flexible and comfortable frame that still delivers on modern power and performance with a higher degree of precision.

This model comes with a 98 square inch headsize which has a tighter than average sweet spot, allowing a greater degree of control plus the ability to swing longer and faster for those that can hit more consistently. This means that the racquet can handle more from your swing and thereby enhancing every aspect of your game. The relatively open string pattern provides easier access to spin and power, although with an extra cross string when compared to the Clash 100, it should reduce the pop off the string bed for a greater degree of control over the ball. The weight of the racquet sits at 10.9 ounces unstrung, which provides increased stability and impact for more powerful shots, returns and stable volleys. The balance sits quite head light which increases overall manoeuvrability to for more spin and power and controlled volleys. This racquet stands apart from many other racquets in its category due to the high flexibility on offer which should really appeal to players seeking feel and comfort.

The second edition of Clash brings some technological improvements including a revised construction at the tip of the hoop for additional consistency with its enhanced sweet spot. This improves on the already fantastic feel and comfort characteristics which add up over the course of a match. Wilson has integrated a sustainable, plant-based material called Agiplast that can be found in the bumper, grommets and end cap. The overall design has also been updated with an anodized elastic finish look with a tactile embossed logo for a more dynamic and rich impression.

With its unique blend of extreme flexibility and stability coupled with great feel and manoeuvrability, the Clash 98 is definitely worth a try for those players looking for a comfortable fast-swinging modern precision-oriented frame. Previous players will likely be quite satisfied with this improvement as it does not fundamentally change what makes the Clash experience so unique and popular.

Photos used contain images of strings for illustration purposes. Adult tennis racquets are unstrung unless otherwise noted or stringing services have been selected above. Brand logo stencils are not applied by default with stringing services. If you request brand logo stencils, please note that a stencil is painted onto the strings within a brand's stencil and may wear off over time - this is how stencils are applied on tour. Depending on the string you select, the stencil paint application fullness, colour and visibility may vary.
Adult racquets generally do not come with covers. To protect your racquet, we recommend getting a racquet bag.

Product specs such as weight may vary slightly from racquet to racquet to what is advertised due to the manufacturing process.

Adult Racquets Sizing Information
Grip Size Length
L0 (4") 4" (4 inches)
L1 (4 1/8") 4 and 1/8" (4.125 inches)
L2 (4 1/4") 4 and 2/8" (4.25 inches)

To determine your grip size without using a racquet, measure from the tip of your ring finger to the major fold crease in your palm. Write down the distance to the nearest 8th of an inch. This is your standard grip size.

Grip size palm measurements for tennis racquets

If you fall somewhere between the measurements, it is recommended to choose the smaller grip size as you can always build the grip size up using an overgrip (for a slight increase) or a grip build-up sleeve (for a half or full size increase). The grip measurements above factor in the pre-installed factory grip.
