2023 Vcore 98 vs. Ezone 98 Racquet Review | The Vcore 98 is finally catching up to the Ezone

Did not feel like long ago that the previous Vcore was released, now suddenly a new one is out. Actually was not very interested in this one, given that it wasn't getting many great reviews or much praise, and I was close to skipping this one altogether, but luckily decided to try it out.

Currently been playtesting the Aero 98, Shift 315, Pure Drive 98, Dunlop Fx Tour 500, Radical MP & Pro, will seek to get my hands on an Artengo TR960 Control, have bought a V8 Blade Pro (on the way) and many more to Pro Staffs are coming!

Love these videos, honestly the quality is so good, type of video you expect from a 1 million sub channel at least

[Andre-qmwe]

The feel and stiffness department cannot be discribed better, perfect, on point!

[JTACTR]

Best upgrade for any Yonex is to go one size down on gripsize. Or go half down with Babolat Team Feel grip. Great review, love my Vcore!

[mikethewheelchairguy]

Great in-depth attention to detail review! Thanks for sharing.

[stevenjo]

Wow your analysis is spot on! Somehow I'm hitting flat bombs on the vcore 98 '23.

[robinyuuu]

Thanks for the in depth comparison! I hope that the 2020 version of the ezone 98 still stays up to par with these, as I still haven't upgraded or demoed the latest stuff

[stavroszikou]

Great Review & Thanks for the hit last night! 🎾💯

[Javi_C]

Much appreciated, thanks for your extensive review!

[dmc]

Love your top notch reviews AND responses to comments. Can you please review the new Pro Staff v14 X model that seems like a potential replacement of the old 6.1 95 for those of us who loved them but find them too demanding with advanced age?

[BrooklynZue]

That was great! A comparison review of the new Pure Aero vs the new VCore 100 would be awesome. 🤩

[DanTheMan]

Thanks. As always the most helpful video on a new racquet. I would be happy if you also review the neu Vcore 100. I guess tweeners aren't your thing, but you might be surprised with Yonex 100 racquets. It takes some getting used to, but your opponents will curse the 100, especially on red clay. I'm currently playing the Ezone 98. I briefly tested the Vcore 100 and 98 and couldn't decide. I have now ordered both for a long-term test. I'm looking for a little more lift than with the Ezone 98.

Your hitting partner has got some nice footwork

[imodium]

i tried both racket and i think your video is so accurate. Great job

[kevinle]

I got the Vcore 98 Tour and it solves all the problems of the Vcore 98. Solid racquet

[Karim-bdvb]

Very good video thanks ! I prefer the maniability of the Ezone 98 but i prefer the higher launch angle and spin of the vcore 98. Vcore 98 is a bit too hard to swing for my shoulder. I used both with polytour pro at tension 51 pounds. Do you think it s possible to get the same launch angle of the core with the ezone if i use a spin string hyper g with lower tension at 44 pounds for instance ?
Thanks a lot

[dreamphoenix]

Choose 2022 Ezone thanks to your previous video and now I really want to get a new Vcore for collection purpose ahahaha

[MultiBlaz]

Really nice review!

Since I see that you know a lot about racqutes, I would like to ask for your opinion, cause I will change my racquet in close future...

Now I have ezone100, 2021. I am definetly considering to go for 98 cause I am one-hander...I like ezone100 a lot, but I found it a little bit unmanevuverable...

Producing power was never my problem, also on serves. I just want something more suitable for one-handers, maneuverable and with good sping potential. Like overall racquet...

In terms of Yonex, what are your thoughts? 98 better than 100 right? And.. is there any racquet of other brands worth trying?

Thanks 😊

I love the puff of clay when the ball strikes the court, so easy to call shots

[EvokeTennis]

vcore swing weight felt weird to me at first like it was all in the throat, was used to more weighty feeling at the tip that helps pull the racket through. On the ezone I decided to skip it on the RA alone, still wonder why it went from one of the more plusher rackets in 2020 and now the 22 is harsh again? Great review man good to see you on clay

[nicolasX]

i totally agree with your review apart from what you say about power. New vcore is way more powerful than the previous version. After a month and still cannot get use of it.
