Yonex Ezone 98 (7th Gen)

7% LARGER SWEET SPOT

Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC™ design increases the sweet spot by 7%*.

Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC™ racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings.

ISOMETRIC™ technology delivers greater control without sacrificing power.

For Improved Power And Comfort

Straight hole grommets elongate the strings to optimize power and comfort on off-center shots.

First introduced in 1969 with the T-7000 - our first aluminum tennis racquet - the Oval Pressed Shaft (OPS) is still incorporated into our most popular racquet series today.

The Oval Pressed Shaft is designed to give players more spin, control, and feel. The shaft flexes at impact, increasing dwell time and minimizing vibrations.

First used in our snowboards to reduce vibrations at impact, Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM) is now used in four of our racquet series. VDM is a stretchy mesh material that is wrapped around the graphite within the grip to filter unwanted vibrations and improve touch and precision.

IMPROVED FEEL AND BALL SPEED

A high modulus graphite fibers are bound with a carbon nanotube (CNT) structure, reducing energy loss, which enables to transfer the energy into quick snapback.

Namd is technology developed by Nitta Co., Ltd. to uniformly disperse carbon nanotubes in carbon fiber composites.

FOR A PLUSH FEEL

An inverted frame design with a thinner frame face results in a softer racquet.

FOR IMPROVED STABILITY AND POWER

A thicker shaft structure with a convex design reduces unwanted racquet torque on off-centered shots for added power.
