Coming off a tough 2008, Wilson and Viking improve ball offerings

Last season was a nightmare for the platform tennis ball industry. Wilson was criticized for two reasons: their balls came out late and the ball wasn’t as bright as their Viking competition. On the other hand, the Wilson ball’s flocking held up much better in competition than Viking’s and it seemed that there were fewer Wilson “wobblers” (balls that were not properly balanced) than Viking wobblers.

Players will also notice changes to both the Viking and Wilson balls this season.
