Yonex 08 VCORE 100L ruby red

With a swingweight under 315, the VCORE 100L moves through contact very quickly. Spin comes easily, as do shots on the run, and at the net the racket keeps up with the ball. 280 g on a 330 mm balance suits a developing intermediate player.

The head was widened at 10 and 2 o'clock. That opens a bigger window for spin and makes power easier to find, with shots landing deeper. The 2026 frame is more aerodynamic and thicker in key places for stability. Wider grommet holes improve string snapback. Servo Filter inside the 2 NAMD FlexForce Graphite layers and a mesh in the handle keep the feel soft. String it with POLYTOUR REV or POLYTOUR PRO.
