I can feel the GOATness radiating off the FU tour 93
Knowledge on specs and release date?
Not sure on specs, January release. Though comparing the 2 headsizes, the string spacing is exactly the same on both. So if you were to put the 93 over the 97, the strings would line up and be in the exact same place.
Continuation of the 97 Tour line I'm assuming? Will there be a 310g of the 97
Comes in 93 square inch and 97 square inch. Replaces the current VCore Tour 89 and VCore Tour 97. Lleyton Hewitt is playtesting these right now
I can't reveal much because that's all I know .haha. I only took a 4 seconds glimpse on the rep 's mobile photo album. Heh. Paintjob main colour is slightly on the rqis 1 tour 95's side. Haha
Are they the same mould as the current one and do they share the same bumper guards?
310g for 93 sq inch
Can't reveal too much . Can only say a little massive makeover like prestige rev pro . *ouch*
sixone90,
Have heard different release dates. You said Jan, Yonex said somewhere in April/May. Can you confirm its going to be in few months in Jan?
So Hewitt is going down in size, while everyone else is going up? Hard core.
Hopefully they keep the specs on the 93 close to the 89. That would be an amazing frame, the 89 is just a tad small even with the Yonex sweet spot.
^ What?? One weight and super light like the Rev Pro? Is that just the 93 you heard about or the whole line? That would make sense because the Yonex rep I spoke to couldn't confirm any specs really, but did say that static weight can definitely change
I've heard something about 310 gram for the 93 (nothing specific on the other two though), which quite frankly is too light for a mid and makes it a platform racquet in my book (if that really is the case). I am happy that Yonex finally brings out a 93 though, it will be really interesting as Yonex's generally play slightly larger than their headsize, so this will be one pretty forgiving mid.
Yonex may look to change up weights even, maybe get rid of the 330 altogether. Sixone90 can you confirm or deny this? I'm also confused by your comment that there is a big makeover like the Graphene Prestige RevPro... what do you mean by that?
Is it a confirmed January release date? I called Yonex and they said it's more likely a new one comes out in April.

Yeah, I'm just going to be very bummed out if the VCT line doesn't have any continuity with this supposed F line. The VCT 97 310 with some lead is what I'll be testing next week against my AI and some other Yonex's.
Is it going to really have a 16x20 string pattern?
