The Wilson Clash V3 is the most distinctive racquet in tennis — a frame engineered to bend, not resist. The full Wilson Clash Series at Sturdy Racquets brings together every current V3 model alongside matching Super Tour Clash bags, giving Australian players a one-stop home for this comfort-and-control benchmark.
What is the Wilson Clash Series?
Powered by Wilson's FortyFive° carbon mapping and StableSmart frame geometry, the Clash V3 is engineered with a flex profile around RA 55–62 — significantly softer than most modern frames — while still delivering MOI stability comparable to stiffer racquets. Translation: more comfort, less arm shock, and a connected feel through every shot. The Clash is widely recommended for players returning from elbow or wrist issues, and for intermediates who don't want a stiff power frame.
Choosing your Clash V3
Our range covers six adult Clash V3 frames plus two junior options. The Clash 100 v3 (295g) is the all-round flagship — equal parts power, control, and comfort. The Clash 100L v3 (280g) drops weight for easier swing speed, while the Clash 100UL v3 (265g) suits smaller frames and players prioritising manoeuvrability. The Clash 100 PRO v3 (310g) and Clash Team 103 v3 sit at opposite ends — the Pro for advanced players who want the Clash flex with player-frame mass; the Team 103 for developing players wanting a larger 103 sq in head. Junior players are catered for with the Clash 25 v3 and Clash 26 v3, sized for 9–11 and 10–12 year olds respectively (see our junior tennis racquets guide for sizing).
Matching Wilson Clash bags
Carry your Clash in style with the matching Super Tour Clash backpack, 3-racquet, or 6-racquet bag — designed in the same colourway as the V3 frames. Browse the wider tennis bags range if you need different capacities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the Wilson Clash V3 designed for?
The Clash V3 suits players from intermediate club level through to advanced competitive players who prioritise comfort, feel, and control over raw power. Its flexible frame is especially popular with players prone to tennis elbow or wrist strain, and with those returning to tennis after time off.
How is the Clash V3 different from V2?
V3 retains the FortyFive° carbon flex but adds a refined StableSmart geometry for slightly better stability on off-centre hits, plus updated cosmetics. The hitting characteristics are very similar — V2 owners considering an upgrade should demo the V3 100 to feel the small but noticeable improvement in stability.
What strings should I use in a Wilson Clash?
The Clash's flexible frame pairs well with most string types. For comfort, a multifilament like Tecnifibre X-One Biphase or a softer poly like Luxilon 4G works beautifully. Advanced players often run polyester (Luxilon ALU Power, Wilson Revolve) at 22–25 kg. See our tennis strings range for options.
Is the Clash 100 PRO worth the upgrade from the Clash 100?
The Clash 100 PRO (310g) adds 15g of static weight and a slightly firmer feel for advanced players who want more plough-through and stability against heavy hitters. The standard Clash 100 (295g) is the better choice for most club and intermediate players. If you're regularly competing and want more mass behind the ball, the Pro is the upgrade.
Can I demo a Wilson Clash before buying?
Yes. We run a tennis racquet demo program from our Brooklyn (Vic) showroom and most Wilson Clash V3 models are available to test on court. $10 off the racquet price applies if you purchase within 30 days of the demo.
