Yonex Tennis Racquets India — Ezone, VCore & Percept

Yonex brings Japanese engineering precision to tennis — their Isometric head shape, a signature since 1980, enlarges the effective sweet spot by 7% compared to conventional oval frames. Naomi Osaka plays the Ezone. Nick Kyrgios and Casper Ruud play Yonex. The three professional series — Ezone (power, comfort, arm-friendly), VCore (spin, aerodynamic speed), and Percept (touch, precision, feel) — cover every serious playing style. The accessible range (Ezone 105/110, Ezone Game, VCore Feel) covers Indian recreational and intermediate players.

What distinguishes Yonex from European brands is their arm-friendliness. Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM) woven into the handle absorbs frame vibrations before they reach the wrist — a feature Indian hard-court players particularly benefit from across long summer sessions. All dispatched from Mumbai pan-India in 3–5 business days. Read our HEAD vs Yonex comparison on Sportopedia for a detailed cross-brand analysis.

Core Yonex Technologies

Isometric head shape — squarish frame geometry that expands the effective sweet spot by 7% compared to conventional oval frames. More forgiving on shots that miss the centre. Consistent response across a larger portion of the string bed.

Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM) — a woven mesh material integrated into the racquet handle. Absorbs frame vibrations at the point they enter the hand, significantly reducing cumulative arm fatigue. Critical on Indian hard courts where ball speed and surface hardness generate more vibration per contact than on clay.

2G-Namd Speed — a carbon nanotube technology that optimises frame flex. The frame stores and releases energy at exactly the right moment in the swing — improving the feel and power of the flex cycle.

Ezone Series — Power, Comfort, and Osaka’s Game

The Ezone is engineered for players who want effortless power from a comfortable, arm-friendly frame. Naomi Osaka uses it — her game of explosive flat groundstrokes and powerful serve represents what the Ezone does best. The VDM handle, Isometric head, and 2G-Namd Speed combine to produce easy depth and pace on groundstrokes without demanding aggressive swing mechanics. For Indian players on hard courts in hot conditions, the Ezone is the most practically relevant Yonex series across all levels.

Ezone 98 — 7th Generation Professional

The Yonex Ezone 98 is the 7th-generation professional Ezone — 98 sq in, 305g, 16×19, effortless power and comfort for intermediate-to-advanced players. The 16×19 string pattern provides spin potential alongside Ezone’s characteristic power. Excellent all-court performer for players who want consistent depth and pace without an aggressive spinning game. One of the most consistently used racquets at Indian club level for advanced players.

Ezone 105 — The Smart Intermediate Choice

The Yonex Ezone 105 is the standout mid-range Yonex for Indian intermediate players — 105 sq in, 285g, 2G-Namd Speed for optimal flex, ISOMETRIC head, VDM handle. The enlarged head provides significantly more forgiveness than the 98 without sacrificing the Ezone’s power character. At 285g it is fast to swing and non-fatiguing across long sessions on Indian hard courts. For players training 2–4 sessions per week who want consistent powerful tennis without the physical demands of heavier professional frames.

Ezone 110 — Maximum Forgiveness

The Yonex Ezone 110 at 110 sq in offers the largest Yonex Ezone sweet spot — for beginners, recreational players, and senior players who want easy power and maximum confidence on every contact. VDM handle for comfort, Isometric for consistency.

Ezone Game — Beginner-Intermediate All-Rounder

The Yonex Ezone Game is a forgiving 16×19 frame for beginners and improving intermediate players — open string pattern for topspin development, VDM comfort, Isometric consistency. One of the most searched Yonex frames in India from players specifically looking for the Ezone Game.

VCore Series — Spin and Aerodynamic Speed

The VCore is built for aggressive modern baseliners who want maximum topspin RPM. The aerodynamic frame reduces drag so the racquet head accelerates faster through the swing — more head speed = more brush on the ball = heavier spin. Open 16×19 string pattern for maximum string movement and ball bite. For players who want to generate the kind of heavy, high-bouncing groundstrokes that push opponents deep and create short balls to attack.

VCore 98 — Professional Spin

The Yonex VCore 98 is the professional VCore — 98 sq in, 305g, 16×19, aerodynamic frame for maximum spin generation. For advanced players whose game is built on heavy topspin groundstrokes and fast swing mechanics. Demanding — requires physical fitness and consistent technique. Exceptionally rewarding for players who meet those requirements.

VCore 98L — Lighter Spin Frame

The VCore 98L at 285g brings the VCore spin mechanics to a lighter, faster-swinging package. For intermediate-to-advanced players who want to develop heavy topspin without the physical demands of the 305g professional frame. Often the better choice for Indian players building a spin-first game.

VCore 100 — Spin-First All-Court
