i got one myself and i also think it´s a very good racket (strung with Solinco Hyper G Soft at 23kg) - very good blend of control and spin, without sacrificing too much power - but the string also makes a huge difference! One can almost destroy every rackets playability if you choose the wrong string.
It's extremely hard to judge any racquet by playing with it for 2-3 hours. U should at least invest 8+ hours into a racquet before u can have a more definitive opinion. I made the mistake in the past where I loved a racquet in the first 1-2 hours, but after that I noticed more and more issues. Hello Extreme Tour:) This also goes the other way around, when a racquet doesn't feel good at first hit don't throw it away as u might learn the racquet better with more playtime and start liking it... ;)
Yeah sure. But normally I have a very good feel for a racket. BUT I only have to use my string to make a fair comparison. I must string the rackets with the Lynx Tour to give a good opinion.
Yeah indoors in winter is not that easy. I have to pay for every session and I want to make the most out of it. In summer now it is different story. I normally play around 2 sessions and then I play a practice match with it. But I have to use my string than I can compare the rackets properly and give a good review! But hope you liked the review :)
No I did not. But if I would buy this racket I would add some led at 12 to shift the balance a little more towards the head. It would help me with my backhand and the serve!
Sorry YONEX! Hope you can forgive me! 😀 What do you guys think? Let me know!
Thank you for the updated review. Do you still enjoy the vc98 or have you even bought one?
Yeah I would still enjoy it 👍💪 did not buy it though - would like to have a little more feel of my racket 👌

Yeah that is true. It is great racket for sure :)
Played with the racquet since January, spin is great but launch angle is a tad too inconsistent
Yeah sometimes a bit unpredictable. I had this problem a bit more on the backhand. But overall a very good frame

@@servingaces Yes, strings are an important factor.
Good on ya for retesting this racquet. Hopefully this means the end of posting racquet reviews based on but one playtest...

I did dig the review. You're always clear and concise.
@@brandomaxwell Thanks appreciate it 😊👍
any comparison to ezone98 and gravity tour? what do you prefer?
I will make a video where I compare the ezone vs the vcore. So stay tuned ☺️ Did not play with the gravity tour yet so I cannot say that to be honest.
@@servingaces thank you keep the great work all the best
@@blazejbetkowski420 thanks man ☺️👍 appreciate the compliment
Did he customize it in any way?
No I did not. But if I would buy this racket I would add some led at 12 to shift the balance a little more towards the head. It would help me with my backhand and the serve!
