7% LARGER SWEET SPOT All YONEX racquets are ISOMETRICTM, it is our signature racquet technology that we developed over 30 years ago and has helped some of the world’s greatest players achieve global success.

YONEX ISOMETRICTM has been designed to increase the number of main and cross strings that intersect, increasing the sweet spot by 7%.* A compact, ISOMETRICTM racquet head [100 sq inch] can generate a sweet spot equal to a larger, roundheaded racquet [107 sq inch]. This delivers greater control without loss of power.

RACQUETS / TECHNOLOGY EZONE AI - Driven for Speed. An evolutionary new frame design which minimizes air resistance producing an ultra-fast swing and amazing ball speed. A new ISOMETRICTM head shape maximizes the sweet spot for the ultimate swing speed and consistent power even on off-centre hits.

Deep Groove

Deep Groove

7% LARGER SWEET SPOT*

MAX SWEET SPOT YONEX evolved our ISOMETRICTM technology with an improved grommet system, applying both deep and shallow grooves inside of the frame. This New ISOMETRICTM technology provides the EZONE Ai with a maximum sweet spot.

THE FASTET EVER SWING SPEED A new NANOMETRIC material is used in the centre and bottom of the frame to reduce weight at these points, allowing more weight to be added to the top of the frame. This TRANS-WEIGHT SYSTEM results in a racquet head that reacts faster for quicker manoeuvrability and produces the fastest swing speed in YONEX history.

EZONE Ai

Red lines – fastest air flow, blue lines – slowest air flow.

EZONE Ai has the greater amount of fast moving air.

Lightweight

50% LESS* VIBRATION

Shockless Grommets

Quake Shut Gel

DUAL SHUT SYSTEM improves stroke comfort and control. Shockless Grommets at the bottom of the frame reduce impact vibration and Quake Shut Gel (embedded inside the grip) removes subtle discomfort from the frame. A 50% reduction in vibration compared to conventional models.

NANOMETRIC is the new material which applies the NANOALLOY TM Technology of Toray Industries, Inc.

Off-centre hits achieve nearly the same ball speed and repulsion as centre hits*

YONEX knows that many players catch the ball at the top of the frame. The new EZONE Ai delivers ultimate swing speed and maximum power even on off-centre hits. Players can now hit with greater impact both on dynamic angles as well as powerful attacking shots.

For attacking, hard-hitting players producing powerful shots.

Conventional Core

An exclusive technological breakthrough in tennis racquet performance, MICRO CORE is a revolutionary material whose high urethane properties are positioned at 2 and 10 o’clock within the racquet head to increase stability and allow players to apply devastating levels of spin to their shots.

YY Tenniskatalog 2014 E-A5.indd 10

Neo CS Carbon Nanotube embedded in the shaft of the VCORE Tour G produces greater flexibility to hold the ball on the strings for longer allowing players to generate even greater levels of spin for an aggressive bounce and precise control.

X-Fullerene in the VCORE Tour 89 & 97 prevents the face from twisting for faster repulsion allowing players to hit with power and a deep kicking bounce.

RACQUET TECHNOLOGY I.P.S. YONEX I.P.S. (Integrated Power Weight System) technology places weight at the 3 and 9 o’clock positions of the frame to give the face a greater moment of inertia.

SHOCKLESS GROMMET SYSTEM YONEX integrates Shockless Grommets at the side and bottom of the frame to minimize muscle fatigue during long matches. Providing a soft feel at impact plus the ability to protect the wrist, forearm and elbow by absorbing shock.

O.P.S.

SUPER CUSHION GRIP

YONEX O.P.S. (Oval Pressed Shaft) manufacturing technology builds the ideal amount of shaft flex at impact into the racquet, extending dwell time for enhanced ball spin and directional control.

The Super Cushion Grip minimizes vibration. The cushioning performance of the grip helps protect the wrist, forearm and elbow against shockinduced injuries.

FOOTWEAR / TECHNOLOGY YONEX footwear uses the most advanced materials and technology to ensure absolute comfort and performance during each and every point.

MARTINA HINGIS EXPERIENCES THE POWER CUSHION EGG TEST. A raw egg is dropped 7 meters above a POWER CUSHION mat, remarkably the egg does not break instead it rebounds back to a height of 4 meters.

YONEX POWER CUSHION absorbs shock then reverses the impact energy for smooth transfer into the next movement. YONEX POWER CUSHION construction provides 3 times more shock absorbing power, compared with urethane.

3-LAYER The hard top and bottom layers absorb 30% more shock than our original POWER CUSHION and provide 5% more repulsion for enhanced transfer of energy. The soft middle layer quickly returns to its original shape after receiving a shock load, converting the shock energy into power for fast and light footwork.

Elite performance shoes designed to give you the confidence, smooth movement and maximum energy transfer for three key elements of your footwork.

Especially when conditions get tough on court and you need them the most.

RECOVER: FITTING

TURN: AGILITY

CONTACT: STABILITY

Guard Durable Skin

Flexible Midsole + Graphite Sheet

Heel Contact Round Sole

Flexible “Durable Skin�retains the shape of the upper shoe helping to prevent lateral movement of the foot inside of the shoe.

New Graphite Sheet technology provides greater agility by producing a spring effect to your footwork transferring energy on impact into next movement, it helps provide greater power to the ball as you transfer your weight into the shot.

New rounded heel design for a smoother heel contact and transition from heel to toe, plus a larger more rounded contact area for a smoother landing.

Quattro Fit The YONEX research and development team continuously assesses the impact of foot shape on fit and comfort in our tennis shoes.

The new Quattro Fit System from YONEX addresses the four key areas that impact on fit.

Fit point 01

Fit point 02

Fit point 01 Designed to reduce the excess space at the front of the shoe that is created by the smaller toes.

Fit point 02 Shaped shoe technology improves grip and power transfer when accelerating or stopping.

01 Smaller toes 02 Arch
