Yonex VCORE 100L (280gr.) 2023 Racket

For 2023 Yonex redesigns the VCORE 100L but keeps the raw speed and easy spin of the previous generation. Compared to the VCORE 95 and 98, this model is more powerful and forgiving, but it still delivers more than enough control for aggressive targeting. For 2023 Yonex reengineers the frame’s geometry. In addition to redesigning the shaft and making the beam’s face thinner, Yonex has widened the surface area of the racquet’s upper hoop, resulting in a more stable, powerful and spin-friendly hitting experience. Other new features include SIF Grommets, which deploys a silicone oil infusion to reduce the friction between the string and grommet. The upshot is greater string movement for increased snapback and more vicious ball rotation. Yonex has also lowered the RA, giving this stick great ball feedback. Like the previous generation, this racquet benefits from 2-NAMD FlexForce Graphite in the upper shaft and lower hoop, enabling the racquet to deflect and snapback effectively through impact. Ultimately, with some impressive changes to the beam and feel, this update checks all the right boxes.
