The light and maneuverable Yonex E-Zone Xi Lite 100 impresses with a solid and comfortable feel. Players looking to maximize racquet head speed will love the maneuverability this racquet offers. The easy to swing feeling, in combination with the open 16x18 string pattern, results in a spin-friendly feel that is ideal for topspin as well as for slice. Smaller framed adults and juniors making the transition into an adult racquet will also benefit from the easy swinging nature of this racquet. The new Yonex Xi technology (Extra Isometric) expands the sweetspot towards the top of the frame and, according to Yonex, provides more power with less impact vibration. The open string pattern lends itself to provide excellent access to spin. Our TW playtesters found the Yonex E-Zone Xi Lite 100 to swing very easily, while being forgiving with off center hits. At net, maneuverability and touch were impressive. The Xi Lite 100 offers a nice blend of power and comfort with light weight maneuverability. This racquet is a good fit for juniors transitioning into adult frames or intermediate adults who are looking for lightweight maneuverability, comfort and spin.
