Yonex 01 Percept 97D Olive Green Test

The Percept 97D is heavier than the Percept 97, 320 g against 310 g, and swaps the 16x19 pattern for a dense 18x20, while both share the 97 sq in head and 310 mm balance. That makes it a frame for professional players: the ball comes off lower and flatter, and the weight stops a heavy incoming ball from pushing the racket around.

A thin 21 mm beam and FlexCon System let the frame bend, keeping the ball on the strings longer and making it easier to put where you want it. Extra graphite layers in the head steady the trajectory. Servo Filter damps vibration but keeps the contact feel that precise control depends on.
