Played my first full match with it last night so my initial thoughts are I absolutely loved it. Coming from the Babolat Aero Plus I found it much faster through the air, yet still keeping amazing spin potential. I was able to cut sharper cross court angles due to the whippy swing weight. Defence was also great because I could hit flat blocking returns that landed surprisingly deep in the court. I don't exactly know how to explain it but on attacking aggressive shots including 1st serves, the racket makes you explode into the ball with your follow through. Perhaps that has something to do with the pocketing control feel, but I've never found that same sensation with previous rackets. I used the V7 which felt like a sledgehammer that trampolined balls out with little control. This v9 was so much more refined and crisp. Warming up I was hitting the tape with a few shots, especially my cross court forehands. So adjusting I hit harder with slightly higher trajectory and it made me hit so many more winners then usual, without losing control or feel. Flat hitters will also love this racket. Being a lighter racket I thought I would add weight at 3/9 but played the 3hr match feeling completely fine. Perhaps in future I will test adding weight, but don't be fooled by the light weight, it has a lot of power and holds it's own.
Love the extended length of the racquet. Feels great.
Very impressed by Sergio's clean contact! I always found the Blade 104 quite pleasant to play when testing it.
lets go. I have been waiting for this.
Just bought mine, I got the 104 V8, it was a bargain, 120 USD (no strings) , I'm in the beginners level and is the 2nd racket I'll try, first was a pure aero 100, probably too much of a racket for a beginner so really looking to get more self confidence on my contact with the 104
i love my v8, but i got a new v9 and like my v9 more, but by minimal almost the same thing but it feels a bit better
Nice review, I have a few blade 98, 100 & 104 v8 in my bag, I love the 98 but 104 is so easy to play.
No arm pain at all.
Sounds good
@@Tennisnerdplease compare the V8 100 to v9 100
Great hitting on a fantastic court!
Hey Jonas, would be interesting to compare this to the CX 200 OS
I can see by the way you guys are hitting that I’d get smoked 0 &0 if we played a set. ( been there done that with some Bulgarian pros here in Detroit.) I’m a 4.0 usta rated player. Awesome review as always!
Hi jonas I have both the 98 and 100 v8 blades and my 100 is half a cm shorter as the 98, although spec says the should be same length. Could you check if this is the same for your 100 v9/8?
How would you compare this with cx200 OS?
For me, taking a bigger headsize is like switching from a normal bike to an electric one. I try to play a 98 headsize for as long as possible. It forces me to move better, to refine my technique. But i also understand if someone prefers a bigger headsize.
You are spot on with these reviews! I just got a blade 104 and have the same feedback esp when hitting the ball early. Would you recommend using Luxilon 4g at 45 lbs ?
Yes sounds good, thanks
please do a comparison of the old yonex vcore pro 97H and the new percept 97H!!!!!
Good idea 👍🏻
According to TW, a 104 sq. in. is Mid-Plus (94-105 sq.in). Midsize: 80-93 sq. in. Oversize: 106-115 sq. in. Super-Oversize: +116sq. in.
How is mid plus 94-105 nowadays ? Feels like the norm to me if your racket is in this range…
@@CB-mr1ci Yes, I think it´s the range almost the 90% of players are using now.
Hi Jonas, in your opinion what 100sq inch racquet has the best feel specifically? Current and previous generation. Thanks!
Prince Graphite 100…..
Im wondering where is Blade v9 100sqin ? Did they decide not to release it with v9?
Review to come
I thought this was quite a step backward from the V7 version
After 104v5 (with that racket i had my best seasons) the 104 declined especially after v6 when they went to 16x19. It became a rocket launcher in my had an ever since 2021 im struggling and lost all my trust that now after my wordt season (2023) im looking at different rackets
Jonas: I did hit with the V8 104.. Did you have control issues? I wasn’t confident hitting flat down the line….Also, would love to have you compare the V8 and V9 100 Blades, and, which version is your favorite? Ciao, John
I prefer the 100, yes. Review to come
9 obviously! 9>8
Where are the 98’s? 😅😎

Serena Williams is obviously another player using 102/104 sq.in. racquet...
Is it me or is Jonas looking more muscular
Haha, thanks! I’ve been hitting the gym 🎾🤓
I see rafa‘s arm…
Man. I hate how “blue” they made the new Blades. Such a downgrade
blue? it's red
First!😁
Allez!
lol
