What these versions share
On 15 October 2026 the Wilson Carbon Force line had three versions listed in the catalogue: Carbon Force, Carbon Force C and Carbon Force LT (catalogue). All three use an EVA soft core and are rated soft by Tennis-Point, so the shops describe their cores as forgiving.
The faces are either carbon or a carbon/fibreglass mix, so the series sits between stiffer carbon surfaces and more flexible fibreglass options. Shop pages were read on 15 October 2026, so the makeup labels and the table on this page match those product pages.
- Core material: EVA soft, shop-rated soft (Tennis-Point).
- Face: carbon or carbon/fibreglass mixed (shop pages).
- Catalogue presence: three versions listed on 15 October 2026 (catalogue).

Which version suits you
Follow the shop ratings when choosing: Tennis-Point lists Carbon Force LT as Beginners, Carbon Force as Advanced and Carbon Force C as Tournament. Use the level and game-type labels on the product pages to match your experience and preferred role at the net.
Shape, weight and balance affect play. HEAD explains teardrop shapes give a mix of power and control, while a lower (handle-weighted) balance helps control and is often easier to handle for new players. See the weight and balance guide for how balance in millimetres changes feel.
- If you want lighter handling and a beginner label, try Carbon Force LT (355 g, lower balance).
- If you prefer a balanced teardrop for more all-round play, Carbon Force (365 g, middle balance) matches an Advanced label.
- If you are a strong, tournament-level player wanting head-light feel at the same weight, Carbon Force C (365 g, 250 mm) is listed as Tournament.
Questions
What does LT mean in Carbon Force LT?
Shops list the LT as a lighter model in the series with 355 g vs 365 g for the other versions. The shop product page (Tennis-Point) also rates the LT for Beginners and gives its balance as 260 mm.
Are these rackets hard or soft in the core?
All three Carbon Force versions use an EVA soft core and are rated soft by Tennis-Point. Playtomic notes soft cores absorb vibrations and suit players seeking control and comfort.
Which shape is the Carbon Force?
Tennis-Point lists the Carbon Force as teardrop. HEAD and Playtomic describe teardrop shapes as a balance of power and control, suitable for players who want versatility.
How does balance affect handling?
Balance is the distribution of weight across the racket. According to HEAD and Playtomic, a lower (handle-weighted) balance gives more control and easier handling, while a higher balance increases power.
