Featuring Yonex’s unique “ISOMETRIC” technology, the frame consists of a 7% enlarged sweet spot compared to a conventional round frame. The new enlarged wide frame top increases ball contact area by 1.9% and enables strings flexing largely and forming a better launch angle, higher trajectory in ball flight. The new Silicone Oil Infused Grommet with high lubrication helps strengthen the string flex, allowing rapid snapbacks and dynamic spin. Furthermore, reducing the beam by 0.5mm in the frame top brings minimal air resistance, enhancing the swing speed.

YONEX is a  major racket sporting goods global brand, that was founded originally in Japan in 1946 by Minoru Yoneyama.  With headquarters in Tokyo, Yonex continues to be driven to produce the most technologically advanced sports equipment to enable players, both amateur and professional, to play their sport at a higher level.

Originally in 1961, the first Yoneyama-branded racket was introduced, and within another two years an export company was created for the worldwide distribution. After the company began to make aluminium badminton rackets in 1969, it found that the same technology could be applied to the tennis racket which the company introduced in 1971. The company began to experiment with graphite shafts for both types of rackets and found that these would also be useful for golf clubs.

Today Yonex offers two prominent performance tennis racket series: the EZONE and the VCORE ranges, each designed to cater to different playing styles and preferences.  Notably, in May 2024, Andy Murray, a former world number one, switched from his long-time Head racket to the Yonex Ezone 100. This change highlighted his pursuit of enhanced power and performance as he adapted his equipment to his evolving game.
Renowned for its power and comfort, the EZONE series is suitable for all-around players seeking a blend of performance and ease. Models like the EZONE 100 and EZONE 98 are popular choices, offering a mix of power, comfort, precision, and spin.  The VCORE Series is tailored for players seeking control and spin, and provides rackets like the VCORE 98 and VCORE 100. These models are designed for aggressive playing styles, offering excellent control, feel, and spin potential
