The legendary spinny Hammer, in the rare extended Stretch variant!
The 5.5 Spin was an extraordinarily unusual experiment by Wilson -- one which lasted only a very short amount of time. The frames themselves are amazing, wafer-thin round beams that open up a gigantic spin window, even with a 95 head. I personally think they're awesome, but they're definitely polarizing. I appreciate how usable they are though, even this extended length blue Stretch variant. They have this very uniform flex profile that makes them a pleasure to use, and the unparalleled aerodynamics makes them whip through the air, feeling way faster than their specs might indicate.
This example has shallow paint issues throughout the upper hoop, as many of these naturally did. The paint on these was very thin, so even a slight scrape does tend to remove the outermost layer. But the frame itself is in perfect shape, and my test play of it was a blast. It just means I can offer this 5.5 at a much-discounted price, to get it into the hands of someone who will appreciate it.
While the size is L5, the grip is on the thin side, so expect it to fall inbetween a 4 and 5.
Comes with the matching Wilson dampener shown. The grip is a brand new Karakal!
Cleaning: This frame has been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
Packing and shipping: I pack securely with protective foam and brand new U-Line boxes, and ship within two business days. Combined shipping on multiple frames available - please message me and I'll give you a quote!
