@ttlapointe - THANK YOU for picking up this ATT video -- BY FAR the best video review so far, and the most encouraging yet for the Percept!
Video Take-aways:
- All Percepts have more graphite in the hoop than their '21 VCP counterparts, and feel more stable, crisp, firm and powerful in stock form (QUADRUPLE YES!)
- Because feel is more crisp/direct and the hoops have been firmed up, the Percepts are much more universally string-compatible than the VCPs (which really needed CRISP strings, almost exclusively, to get enough feel)
- P97 - more firm, crisp, stable, powerful than the '21 VCP 97, full-on automatic switch for the VCP 97 play-tester
- P97H - still a lot of plow, slightly faster and more playable spec than the VCP97H, a possible switch for a play-tester currently using an EZone Tour
- P97D - amazing all the way around, very much impressed an ITF Futures level player who normally used a PS97 v13
- P100D - 18x19 offer surprising amount of spin; not as high-powered as maybe hoped, but still very adequate
If this is the direction Yonex are headed with all of their lines, then things are looking good!
