Yonex VCORE 98 (305g) Red-Blue

Description

Yonex adds another chapter to the VCORE 98, a spin-friendly weapon that combines great feel with easy targeting on full swings. In addition to providing more control and precision than the larger VCORE 100, the VCORE 98 packs a tad more mass, resulting in extra pop and plow-through. For 2021 Yonex reengineers the beam, giving it a thicker cross-section in the head for added power and stability. Yonex has also widened the hitting area above the 3/9 axis, making for a more lively, spin-friendly and responsive contact zone. New technologies include Flex Force, a uniquely flexible graphite (NAMD-2) used in the lower hoop/upper shaft to help the racket bend more optimally at impact. To increase spin-potential, the VCORE 98 comes with String Sync, a grommet design that helps the strings snapback more powerfully during impact. Additional technologies include a Vibration Dampening Mesh in the handle (think comfort), along an ISOMETRIC head shape, a time-tested feature that makes Yonex rackets feel generous and forgiving without compromising your connection with the ball. From the backcourt, the VCORE 98 not only feels solid when redirecting higher levels of pace, it also feels surgical on full swings. In addition to delivering the needed spin to bring the ball down hard, this stick moves faster than a traditional player's racket, giving you the all-court mobility to charge the net and finish points. With some impressive updates to the beam construction and feel, the VCORE 98 keeps getting better. Experienced players looking for the total package should start here.
