The Wilson RF 01 Future is the lightest and most accessible model in Roger Federer’s signature RF collection. It is specifically engineered for rising junior players or intermediate adults who want the sleek, versatile performance of Federer’s "SABR" frame design without the physical demand of the heavier Pro or standard models.
Key Technologies
- SABR Frame Design: Developed with Federer to handle the variety of his all-court game. The aerodynamic shape allows for faster swings, making it easier to generate pace and spin from the baseline while staying quick enough for net exchanges.
- Braid 45 Construction: Double-braided fibers are woven at 45-degree angles. This enhances "ball pocketing" (the feeling of the ball sinking into the strings) and provides world-class stability despite the racquet's lighter weight.
- Feel Fill: The frame's interior is injected with a proprietary PU foam. This dampens harsh vibrations and creates a solid, comfortable feel that mimics the "plow-through" of much heavier professional frames.
- Glide Guard: A flush-integrated bumper and grommet system that minimizes wind resistance, effectively increasing your swing speed.
Performance Profile
This racquet serves as a "platform frame." At 280g (unstrung), it is incredibly maneuverable for players moving up from junior racquets or those who prefer a fast, whippy feel on serves and forehands. Because it shares the same high-end mold as the RF 01 Pro, it is also a favorite for players who like to customize their racquets with lead tape to find their own perfect weight and balance.
Grip Sizes
The RF 01 Future is available in the full performance range of grip sizes from 0 to 5. Unlike the Pro model which uses leather, the Future comes with a high-tack synthetic grip, which provides more cushioning for developing hands.
