The Yonex E-Zone 100 provides players with a nice blend of power and control. With the use of Yonex's Quad Power System, the racquet feels more stable on off-center hits, and shots are still coming off the stringbed with plenty of pop. The open 16x18 string pattern allows for easy access to spin from all areas of the court and all strokes. The playtesters were impressed with the amount of power they were able to generate on their groundstrokes. The combination of power and spin had our team hitting deep, penetrating shots with tons of action. Our TW playtesters loved the maneuverability; the racquet felt very easy to swing, especially on serves and up at net for volleys. Yonex claims that unwanted vibration and shock is reduced by 15% thanks to NEOFADE, a material found in all four corners of the racquet. We recommend this racquet for intermediate to advanced players.
