Description
The Yonex EZONE 100 tennis racquet in Blast Blue is the 8th-generation EZONE 100, built for power from the baseline. It pairs a 100 sq in Isometric™ head with a 300 g unstrung weight and an open 16 × 19 string pattern.
The frame uses HM Graphite and Minolon with 2G-Namd™ Speed in the shaft. A tapered inner frame increases flex so the strings pocket the ball, while VDM in the grip filters vibration.
Supplied unstrung, so you can choose your own string and tension. Made in Japan.
