Wilson Bela V3

Wilson's Bela range for 2025 has three V3 models, and they step up in weight. The Bela LS V3 weighs 355 g, this Bela V3 365 g and the Bela Pro V3 2025 370 g. The Bela V3 lists a teardrop shape, a medium-high balance and a firm EVA core. The face mixes 3K carbon and fiberglass, the frame is C2 tubular carbon and the surface is rough. Neither the balance point nor the thickness is published. Fernando Belasteguín is listed as the player for both this racket and the Pro.

The middle of three Belas

The three V3 models differ in more than weight. The LS uses Power Foam and a carbon and fiberglass face, with a medium balance at 265 mm, and its profile rates comfort high. The Pro uses Power Foam and a Carbon 24k face with a high balance. The Bela V3 sits between them on weight, but in character it leans toward the Pro. On the five meters of this page the two come out the same: power high, control medium, comfort and maneuverability low.

If you want the attacking Bela without the 24k face, this is the one. If you want an easier ride with the Bela name, the Wilson Bela LS V3 is the gentler option.

A firm core with a mixed face

The core is listed as firm EVA. A firmer foam deforms less at impact. That gives a direct response and returns pace on full swings, but it forgives less on off-center hits. The profile here classes this core as medium rather than hard. That is why the core counts slightly in favour of comfort there.

The face combines 3K carbon with fiberglass. That mix sits between a full carbon face and plain fiberglass: some of the precision of carbon, some of the give of fiberglass. The product copy credits the combination with better durability and playability. The frame is C2 tubular carbon.

Comfort claims against the meters

The product page lists a Shock Shield grip, and it says one of the racket's technologies improves feel and prevents arm discomfort. The profile says comfort is low. Both points can hold at once. Damping can take some vibration out, but it does not change where the weight sits.

At 365 g with a medium-high balance, the head carries a lot of mass into every hit. Your arm has to stop that mass on every volley and block. If your elbow is fine, that weight is what gives the smash its drive. If it is not, look at the LS first.

A label for every level

Shops put the Bela V3 in every level category, beginner included. The product page speaks of intermediate and advanced players. The specs point to the second group. A head-heavy teardrop with low comfort and low maneuverability rewards a clean, full swing and punishes late preparation. One retailer calls the player profile offensive and tactical, which fits better than beginner.

Rackets with the same idea

The Oxdog Hyper Pro 2.0 comes out identical on paper. Both are teardrops at 365 g, the Oxdog with a high balance, and all five ratings match. The Siux Pegasus Revolution 3K and the Drop Shot Explorer 8.0 keep the attacking teardrop and rate comfort medium instead of low.

No reviews to lean on

No independent review, video or player thread covers the Bela V3. The balance point and the thickness are missing from the listings. For balance, the medium-high label is all there is to go on.
