WILSON XP 1 Adult Tennis Racket, Grip Size 2 - 4 1/4" Black, Lightweight Power with Basalt Handle

The WILSON XP 1 is a lightweight, power-focused adult recreational tennis racket engineered to deliver explosive pace and comfortable feel for weekend players and club competitors.

This racket combines a performance carbon fiber frame, tuned layup and a forgiving 16x18 string pattern to create a blend of responsiveness, forgiveness and easy power. Finished in a two-tone velvet and gloss aesthetic, the XP 1 targets players who want maximum pace from a lighter head and a handle designed for improved contact feedback.

How does the XP 1 generate extra power without being heavy?

A refined frame geometry optimizes stiffness where it matters and reduces mass elsewhere, producing a powerful impact while keeping overall weight easy to swing. High-performance carbon fiber increases frame rigidity for quicker energy transfer on ball contact.

• Power-focused frame geometry designed to amplify momentum
• High-performance carbon fiber for efficient energy transfer
• Lighter overall weight for faster swing speed and easier court coverage

Will this racket give a comfortable feel with multifilament strings?

The 16x18 string pattern creates more space between crossing mains and crosses, allowing softer multifilament strings to bite and cushion the ball. Combined with the Basalt-infused handle system, the XP 1 reduces harsh vibration and improves on-contact sensation.

• Open 16x18 pattern works well with softer multifilament strings
• Basalt Amplifeel 360 handle improves touch and feedback
• Reduced vibration for more comfortable rallies and longer sessions

What finishing details and looks does the racket offer?

Wilson applied a layered finish mixing velvet and super-gloss paints to give the racket a refined, tonal appearance that stands out without being flashy. The visual treatment complements the performance elements, making the racket suitable for players who want professional styling on recreational gear.

• Combination of velvet and super-gloss paints for a premium finish
• Elegant tonal look suitable for club play and social matches
• Black colorway for a versatile, understated aesthetic

How does the grip size and handle design affect play?

This listing covers grip size 2 (4 1/4"), which fits many adult players who prefer a medium grip circumference for control and wrist mobility. The Amplifeel 360 Basalt handle enhances feel and helps the racket deliver power more intuitively through the arm.

• Grip 2 (4 1/4") offers a balance of control and maneuverability
• Basalt handle material increases tactile feedback
• Designed to promote confident swings and consistent contact

Who is this for: The WILSON XP 1 is aimed at recreational adults and club players who prioritize easy-to-access pace from a lighter frame without sacrificing comfort. It suits players who use multifilament strings, seek a responsive feel at contact, and appreciate a smart, understated finish on their racket. If you want a racket that helps you add speed to groundstrokes and serves while remaining comfortable during extended play, the XP 1 is a strong match.
