Surgical precision, power, stability and comfort. The new Yonex EZONE DR 98 (310 grams) has it all!
Brand: Yonex Model: EZONE DR 98 Head size: 98 sq/inch Weight: 310 gr Balance: 31.0 cm Stringing pattern: 16/19 Length: 27 inch RA: 62 The Yonex EZONE DR 98 is the successor to the successful Yonex EZONE Ai 98. The racket retains the same specs as its predecessor, but has a number of subtle technical innovations. The DR (Dynamic Repulsion) technology provides extra stability, particularly noticeable with off-center hits. New tubings in different shapes provide less shock load and more frame-string interaction and therefore effectively a larger sweet spot. The Dual Shut System with added Quake Shut Gel in the handle provides extra vibration damping for the most comfortable EZONE 98 to date.
During the production process prior to the launch of the Yonex EZONE DR 98 (310), Yonex conducted a number of notable tests for this EZONE update, including a close look at the service return. The return statistics of Nick Kyrgios (Yonex's figurehead for the new EZONE DR line) were thoroughly analyzed. One of the most important factors where gains could be made was the blade stability (and therefore the angle of the ball) at impact. The added 'premium grade NANOMETRIC DR carbon graphite' provides this extra stability and precision, while the Aero Shape shaft construction in combination with the low 31.0 balance makes the racket very easy to maneuver.
The first findings about the new Yonex EZONE DR 98 (310) are very positive. The most important findings are: more comfort and less shock load. More stability especially with off-center hits and returns. Good grip on the ball and spin potential. Very easy switch from the Yonex EZONE Ai 98 to this new EZONE DR 98.
