Yonex Ezone 100 (2025)

Yonex adds another chapter to the EZONE 100! Like the previous generation, this update is defined by its plush comfort and spin-friendly targeting (think controllable power). In addition to offering a more forgiving and powerful head size than its 98in² sibling, the 2025 EZONE 100 is very fast, making it great for hitting winners on the run, resetting the point with an outstretched flick, or reacting quickly at the net. It will also give aggressive players enough pop and accuracy to finish points with a bang. For 2025, Yonex overhauls the frame's geometry, thickening the beam in the upper hoop to enhance power and stability while adding a groove on the inner portion of the frame to help the racquet bend optimally through impact. To further enhance comfort, Yonex adds ultra-thin and flexible fibers to the shaft (called Minolon) to dampen harsh vibrations. Yonex also continues with 2G NAMD SPEED, an advanced material innovation that helps the frame transfer more energy to the ball. The most important design feature remains the ISOMETRIC head shape, which gives this stick an undeniably more plush and responsive feel than conventionally shaped equivalents. Ultimately, with some nice tweaks to the feel and response, this update checks all the right boxes. Intermediate and advanced players looking for a speedy player's racquet with easy access to spin and power won't be disappointed.
