H22 family 2026 v10
The Blade Pro (BP) V10 is a heavier brother of the retail V10 version, bosting a higher swing weight and slightly head light balance making for a different hitting experience.
The BP V10 and the H22 share similarities in their mold, but using a different layup does change the characteristics of these rackets even if they look identical cosmetically.
String Pattern & Spacing – While both have a 18×20 drill pattern, the BP V10 has wider spacing between the mains, making it more open and spin-friendly. The H22 has a denser pattern in the center but opens up outside the 8 throat mains, leading to a more controlled response.
Feel & Flex – The H22 is known for its plush, classic pro-stock feel with a slightly more flexible response, whereas the BP V10 offers a crisper, slightly more modern response.
Swingweight & Customisation – The BP V10 often comes in a higher stock swing weight (~341 SW in some cases), making it heavier to maneuver compared to many customized H22 setups, which pro players often modify to their exact specs.
BP V10 is a more accessible, slightly tweaked version of the H22, with a more open string pattern and a slightly firmer response, while the H22 remains the go-to for pro players preferring a softer, more customisable platform.
