Brand new to 2024, the awesome Yonex EZONE 98 Tennis Racquet (8th Gen) has landed and it's absolutely perfect for players looking for supreme power combined with enhanced comfort on every single strike.
In comparison to the 8th Gen EZONE 100, the EZONE 98 has a slightly heavier weight and provides a bit more stability. It also has a slightly smaller 98 sq. in head size which gives a bit more control than the 100 sq. in. version while still offering plenty of access to spin. Compared to the previous 7th Gen version of this racquet, the specifications of this 8th Gen version of the EZONE 98 are very similar. With a head light balance point, 305g unstrung weight, and an open 16x19 string pattern, it's perfectly geared toward players looking for extra feel, superb power, boosted spin, and enhanced playability.
Coming in a bold Blast Blue colour, the 8th Gen EZONE 98 sports a number of revolutionary Yonex technologies. First up is the innovative square-shaped ISOMETRIC™ racquet head that creates a 7% larger sweet spot for further power, control, and forgiveness. This head shape combines a wider top beam width (that delivers explosive shots with less effort) with an extended tapered inner frame (that enhances flex and ball pocketing, delivering a softer, more controlled feel).
On top of this, ultra-fine strands of MINOLON are tucked between the graphite plates of the shaft for a plush feel, and, VDM (VIBRATION DAMPENING MESH) is seamlessly integrated into the grip, minimising impact on your arm without affecting feel. Lastly, 2G-Namd Speed technology featured in the EZONE 98 8th Gen Tennis Racquet efficiently transfers energy for a quick snapback over and over again.
