Updated with a more comfortable feel for 2025, the Ultra 100UL v5 is an ideal introduction to the speed, power, and spin that define the Ultra line. Its lightweight construction and easy maneuverability make it a great option for developing solid groundstrokes and confident volleys. For 2025, Wilson not only tightens spec consistency but also softens the overall feel, while enhancing its FORTYFIVE layup technology to allow more vertical flex—boosting spin potential and ball pocketing.
The racquet also includes Crush Zone Grommets, which compress on contact to increase dwell time and improve comfort. A full carbon handle adds torsional stability, reducing frame twisting on off-center hits. With these thoughtful updates, the 2025 Ultra 100UL v5 delivers a more user-friendly experience all around. Aspiring players looking for a smooth path to improvement will find this racquet an excellent starting point.
