Wilson Triad Three Racket
Series: Triad
$269.00
Introducing one of the most arm-friendly rackets on the market. It's called the Triad Three , and it will give beginner and intermediate level players an outstanding combination of comfort and power. Thanks to its time-tested Triad Technology , this racket features an ultra low stiffness rating and one of the industry's best technologies for reducing impact vibration. With its large 113 square inch head, the Triad Three provides a nice margin of error, ensuring that performance and comfort remain high when contact is less than perfect. The extra length (27.5") means that you'll be able to attack the ball with extra momentum, a fact that bodes well for those who want to hit with more power and spin. In addition to this racket's luxurious Triad technology, it also comes with Power Holes , which enables the string bed to soak up additional vibration and transfer more power to your shot. From the baseline this racket's head heavy balance gives it outstanding stability and comfort. Medium length strokes produce plenty of depth, with blistering pace available to those who swing this racket fast . At net this stick feels stable against pace and it provides a generous platform for making clean contact with the ball. The extended length makes for easy net clearance and massive power on serves. Players who place a premium on comfort and power should take a serious look at the Wilson Triad Three.

Where to buy
What players say
Players who buy the Wilson Triad Three are mostly recreational and arm-sensitive players, and they consistently praise it for comfort and easy power. The main knock is that the power can feel hard to rein in for some players, and there is little coverage from major review outlets since it's a niche, arm-friendly frame rather than a performance racquet reviewers typically test.
Best for
- Players with tennis elbow or arm issues
- Beginner to intermediate players
- Players wanting easy power and a big sweet spot
- Doubles players who want net stability
Pros
- Triad two-piece construction noticeably cuts vibration and shock, widely credited with easing tennis elbow
- Large 113 sq in head gives a forgiving, generous sweet spot
- Easy, plentiful power with a head-heavy, 27.5 inch frame
- Open 16x19 string pattern adds spin and reviewers report good feel and control at moderate tensions
Cons

This racquet has a large sweet spot and is very powerful. Almost hard to control the power it produces.
