Wilson brings decades of racket-sport engineering to padel, and its 2026 range at CORTA splits cleanly into two shapes with very different personalities: the diamond-shaped Bela line, built for power, and the teardrop-shaped Blade line, built for control with spin. The Defy line sits alongside as a versatile diamond option for players who want an all-round attacking racket.
This guide covers every Wilson racket we stock, what makes each line different, and how to pick the right model for your level. Browse the full Wilson range here.
Quick pick — Wilson 2026 by level & style

Bela Line — Diamond Power
The Bela line is Wilson's diamond-shaped power racket, built for players who want to finish points with authority at the net and on the smash.
Wilson Bela Pro V3
£169.99 — Diamond-shaped, built for advanced players who want maximum power with a hybrid feel. The top of the Bela range.
Wilson Bela LS V3
£145.99 — Precision, comfort and the signature Bela feel in a lighter build — a more accessible entry point into the diamond power shape.
Which one?
Choose the Pro V3 if you're an established advanced player. Choose the LS V3 if you want the Bela power profile but with more forgiveness while you build technique.
Blade Line — Teardrop Control & Spin
Where the Bela line chases power, the Blade line is built around the teardrop shape for players who want elite control with real spin potential.
Wilson Blade Pro V3
£159.99 — Teardrop-shaped, built for advanced players who want elite control and power combined in one racket.
Wilson Blade LS V3
£134.99 — Lightweight teardrop comfort with a textured face for extra bite on spin shots — ideal for players stepping up from a true beginner racket.
Which one?
Choose the Pro V3 if you already play an aggressive, technical game. Choose the LS V3 if you're an intermediate player who wants a lighter, more forgiving teardrop.
Defy Line — Versatile Diamond Power
The Defy line rounds out the Wilson range as a diamond-shaped option for players who want balanced, dynamic power rather than the Bela's maximum-power focus.
- Wilson Defy V1 — £164.99 — Diamond power with elite control, built for advanced players who want a well-rounded attacking racket.
- Wilson Defy Pro V1 — £219.99 — Dynamic power with sharp, modern control — Wilson's premium Defy option, with extra spin potential.
Best for: Advanced players who want diamond-shape power without going fully maximal — a balanced attacking option between the Bela and Blade lines.
How to Choose the Right Wilson Padel Racket
Shape tells you almost everything about how a Wilson racket plays: Bela and Defy are diamond-shaped for power, Blade is teardrop-shaped for control and spin.
Decision guide
- Aggressive player, want maximum power: Bela Pro V3
- Want power but still building technique: Bela LS V3 or Blade LS V3
- Technical player who wants control and spin: Blade Pro V3
