Test Drive

An ultra stiff game improvement racquet designed to offer the kind of power slow swinging beginners need. The n1 features Wilson's nCode Technology. nCode takes the construction of racquets to the molecular level and nCode racquets are said by Wilson to be twice as strong, twice as stable and up to 22% more powerful than ordinary racquets. The n1 definitely delivers a lot of power and the 115 sq. inch, Oversize head features a large sweetspot. The open (16/19) string pattern makes spin easy to generate on faster swings and offers a lively feel. Even though the n1 is light and maneuverable, its head heavy balance provides good stability on both groundstrokes and volleys. With plenty of pop at net, this is a great choice for both singles and doubles players who like to finish the point with a winning volley. Best suited to 2.5-4.0 NTRP level players.

Note: This racquet comes pre-strung from the manufacturer.

We playtested this racquet as part of our Summary of Game Improvement Racquets. Here is the except for this racquet:

Power 87 - The n1 has to be the most powerful game improvement racquets currently on the market. Not only is it powerful, but the delivery of power is smooth. There are no hot spots or sudden drops in power when making contact in different areas of the stringbed. With the n1 we found instant zip on our serves, volleys and groundstrokes, all of which had more depth and came off the court with good pace. The extended length provides additional leverage on serves, overheads and groundstrokes. If you are looking to add power to your game, this is the racquet for you.

Control 76 - With good access to spin and consistent power delivery, we found plenty of control with the n1. Despite the racquet's 28 inch length, we felt in control of the tip of the racquet, making it easy to guide the ball to an intended target. Also adding to the control of the n1 is the good stability offered at contact.

Maneuverability 78 - For a racquet that is 28 inches long the n1 is very maneuverable. While players used to standard length racquets will find the extra length noticeable, we found this an easy racquet to get around, and the length matched up nicely with the 115 square inch headsize. From the baseline, the n1 felt like it had just enough weight in the head for stability without feeling heavy or sluggish.

Stability 78 - It's not easy to produce a racquet that is both stable and maneuverable, but Wilson has nailed the formula with the n1. We found the n1 to be solid from all areas of the court. Serves hit slightly off-center still found their mark and there was no sudden drop-off in pace. Likewise, the feel at net was solid and stable with little effort required to place the ball deep.

Comfort 75 - The n1 offers a crisper feel compared to the n3. With no Triad style dampening system, we had more feel off the strings and felt in tune with our strokes. The sub 10 ounce strung weight of the n1 makes it a comfortable racquet for smaller players to wield, and we never experienced any arm fatigue during long hitting sessions. The large sweetspot and comfortable stringbed (we used Wilson NXT 17 gauge string at mid tension) made the n1 feel softer than its 71 RDC stiffness rating.
