    Demo’d both and ended up getting the Vcore 98 over the Ezone. Even with the higher RA rating, I felt that it was more comfortable. Coming from 5+ years with a pure drive.

    Sorry but my english is from google translator
    I test both rackets.
    The ezone is a racket easier to adapt to it. He fires a lot and controls the ball well. From day one I was comfortable with her.
    The vcore provides a greater sense of solidity. I had a hard time adjusting to it. He has a lot of ball control and fires just enough to be able to hit him hard with control. At first I was going to stick with the ezone, but once I got used to the vcore I stayed with it. I have been with the vcore for more than three months and it seems to me an exceptional racket

    I used to play with the previous Vcore 98, then got the Ezone 98, and now playing with the new Vcore 98. It's an amazing frame that gives me unprecedented directional control and access to spin. It swings fast and enables me to hit through the ball, and I prefer it to the Ezone 98. I use a hybrid bed strung at 50 pounds.

      I concur. I was able to aim for my targets and paint the lines with pinpoint accuracy which gave me the freedom to go for my shots without any hesitation that the ball would fly out. Only downside is the volleys since it is quite head light. But if you give it extra stab then volleys definitely would stick.

    Loving the new vcore 98. It’s comfortable with a large sweet spot. Also, the higher launch angle is a much better fit for my game. I’ve owned and demoed a lot of Yonex frames in the past couple years and struggled with the low launch angle on most of them.

    • @rsan1704
      @rsan1704 3 роки тому

      Low launch angle was definitely my issue with the ezone tour. Somewhat of an issue with vcore95. Have you compared vcore 95 and 98?

    • @dukies0799
      @dukies0799 3 роки тому

      I have not played with the latest gen vcore 95 but I was playing with the previous gen (2018) vcore 95 prior to switching to the vcore 98. It had a lower launch angle compared to the 98 and was also less forgiving. With the 98, the sweetspot feels huge in comparison. I felt I had to work too hard with the 95 and I struggled if my game and footwork wasn't perfect

    • @letsgofuckingcrazy
      @letsgofuckingcrazy 2 роки тому

      I moved from Pure Drive 100 to Ezone 98 due to arm issues. Arm is fine now but I also miss Spin. I've changed strings but I don't think made much difference... Ezone responds much better when I play flatter shots. I plan to move to Vcore 98 when I feel confident about my arm and have a chance to test it for at least a month.

    • @dukies0799
      @dukies0799 2 роки тому

      I fell out of love with the Vcore 98 and have since moved on. I’m not sure if it was the launch angle or what, but it started becoming unpredictable at times and I didn’t like the muted feel. For the past several months, the extreme tour has been my main stick and I also carry the 2013 apd.

    Thanks for the great video! I’m an upper intermediate player getting arm pain from the Pure Aero 100. I’m looking at these for better comfort and control, but still want to get spin and power like the Aero. The VCore sounds ideal but would you only recommend for advanced players?

    I was in the process of testing different rackets, in the past i played a lot with wilson pro staff, my game is based on attack and is agressive but i need to put some spin on clay.
    I really loved the new Vcore98 it's a great frame, it's precise, can generate a ton of lift and has a good amount of power, i really would have been keen on testing this frame in 95SI but it's not that easy to find. I didn't like that much the ezone98, i can't explain exactly why, it just didn't feel right, maybe too much power in this frame. In the end, and after several other tests with other frames, i choosed the HEAD Prestige MP 98. This frame is super good, control oriented, and cut's like a knife...if your footwork is ON. It feel's great on serve and at the net. Wonderfull frame, i choosed it because i absolutely need to improve my footwork and i like demanding frames it suits my game style, but i got the feeling i could switch for a vcore95 in the future

    • @ferr1909

      When there are more center mains in the throat, you get less spacing between them, a lower launch angle and more control because of the density of the mains in the sweetspot.
