I don't understand why they won't make any smaller head sizes. A lot of the people who care about racquet quality also like smaller head sizes. I'd love a 90 or 93 head Yonex.I don’t know and i don’t care when it would come out. YONEX should stop following Babolat’s routes with producing feel-less tweeners. They should return to their routes and produce great feeling sticks like DR,XI,AI,Tour F etc.
Because other companies have all broad range of 90-95 players racquetsI don’t know and i don’t care when it would come out. YONEX should stop following Babolat’s way with producing feel-less tweeners. They should return to their routes and produce great feeling sticks like DR,XI,AI,Tour F etc.
You made the wrong quote. I never asked for 90-95 racquetsBecause other companies have all broad range of 90-95 players racquets
Ok let’s discuss.Yep.
nice find. Here’s a pic from the yonex site:Think January 2021. Because there will be a Limited Edition of the actual Vcore later this year:

西岡良仁使用・10周年を迎える「VCORE」シリーズから数々の激闘をイメージした新デザインが登場!2020年8月上旬より数量限定で発売
数々の激闘をイメージし、デザインされた「VCORE 98 LIMITED」と使用する西岡良仁 ヨネwww.yonex.co.jp
So long as they offer it in a +, unlike what they did with the Galaxy Black...I sure wish they'd bring the emerald green to the VC98...
The 97HD has loads of feel.I don’t know and i don’t care when it would come out. YONEX should stop following Babolat’s way with producing feel-less tweeners. They should return to their routes and produce great feeling sticks like DR,XI,AI,Tour F etc.
It’s just decent or maybe the best feeling Yonex right now. Try to go for winners and you won’t get feedback of where the ball is gonna land.The 97HD has loads of feel.
The XI was brassy feeling crap. The Tour F was just crap.I don’t know and i don’t care when it would come out. YONEX should stop following Babolat’s way with producing feel-less tweeners. They should return to their routes and produce great feeling sticks like DR,XI,AI,Tour F etc.
I suspect that's more to do with you than the racquet.It’s just decent or maybe the best feeling Yonex right now. Try to go for winners and you won’t get feedback of where the ball is gonna land.
Same issue with loss of feedback when going for more.The XI was brassy feeling crap. The Tour F was just crap.
If you want classic feeling and flexy, Yonex already have that in their range with the VCP 97 HD which is a great racquet for a decent player.
I suspect that's more to do with you than the racquet.
I'm awaiting this news as well. I'm trying to decide whether to stock up on VCORE 98+s when they (eventually) go on clearance. I've tried a few others (latest experiment was extending an Extreme Tour), but nothing else seems to have the power/spin combination in a '+' frame that I like.I heard it could be during US-Open... But seems so near now... Maybe TW has some news ? PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE !!!![]()
If the 100 lines of VCORE & EZONE were simply the same mold but slightly larger, I'd have given them a try. But I have this mental block on frames > 23mm thick (and 23 is stretching it). But at 25mm & 26mm, respectively, the 100s are non-starters for me.Have you tried the ezone 100 (2020) ?I know it's supposed to be more powerful but I tried it with Poly tour strike and really loved it (and it's controled power and spin) so much that I struggle to chose between a 98 or a 100 now...
What's with the Tetris blocks on the side?nice find. Here’s a pic from the yonex site:

pixelation. Design trend.What's with the Tetris blocks on the side?
Pretty much in the same boat. My VCore98+ are getting beat up pretty bad and one died an early death when it slipped while serving.I'm awaiting this news as well. I'm trying to decide whether to stock up on VCORE 98+s when they (eventually) go on clearance. I've tried a few others (latest experiment was extending an Extreme Tour), but nothing else seems to have the power/spin combination in a '+' frame that I like.
I did like the feel of the new EZONE 98 + w/ the VDM, but couldn't dial in the frame, so I'm hoping the new VCORE will (a) come in a '+', and (b) have all the qualities of the current model, but w/ the VDM.
Otherwise...time to stock up & stick w/ a frame for 5+ years...
Willing to try vc98... Any idea how it can compare to pure aero vs? ThanksOk let’s discuss.
Have you played for example with VC98? Found me one modern 98 305 racquet that it’s worse than VC98.![]()
i went from the PA VS to the vcore 98. It's a tamer version of the PA VS in terms of power, control, and stiffness. It's still got quite a bit of power and spin, but it is more comfortable.Willing to try vc98... Any idea how it can compare to pure aero vs? Thanks

If you don’t have any elbow issues with Babolats don’t even try Vcore98. Go for VS without even thinking it. Strung it with rpm team or rough at 23kg. VC98 is only better on flat serves and 1HB.... VS needs more adjustment on 1HB but you can fix it by changing its balance. They are both stable and solid on stock weight but VS has even more power, similar spin, larger SS, miles better feel/ball connection and in general it is a more easy stick to play with. I wish only VS was 16x19.Willing to try vc98... Any idea how it can compare to pure aero vs? Thanks

Imo the new head extreme tour is better than both of them, better feel and more spinWilling to try vc98... Any idea how it can compare to pure aero vs? Thanks

As a VCP HD main I can say that it's an issue I have with the frame. VDM dampens the feel so it's harder to feel exactly where the ball landed on the stringbed.It’s just decent or maybe the best feeling Yonex right now. Try to go for winners and you won’t get feedback of where the ball is gonna land.
You can't not buy it now.Oh... did someone say X factor?
Well, heck.You can't not buy it now.![]()
Thanks. And what about power level?Imo the new head extreme tour is better than both of them, better feel and more spin
For me it is much worse, feeling like chinese piece of plastic even Babolat feels better...Imo the new head extreme tour is better than both of them, better feel and more spin
That’s a Japan exclusive with a special 16x18 pattern. Nothing new tbh.
What does a 14yr old kid know what we don’t know? LolImo the new head extreme tour is better than both of them, better feel and more spin
