Verdict
Wilson’s classic club multifilament—plush pocketing and easy depth in the soft-string lane, with the usual multi tax of fray and tension fade at a premium set price.
A comfortable modern 98 that gives rec regulars easy depth without a boardy, tour-stiff feel.
Yonex’s club spin flagship opposite Pure Aero—Ruby Red 100 that loads the ball with snapback, pockets more than it punishes, and belongs on the short demo list if Aero feels too boardy.
