Playtest and Review of the 2025 Yonex Ezone 100

I have demo’d and play tested the newest Yonex 2025 Ezone 100. Here is the video with my review.

Here are the specs for the new Ezone.

Specifications

The new Ezone has some design updates which makes the racquet play surprisingly solid yet very comfortable. My current racquet the Yonex Vcore Pro weighs in at 12.2 oz. A full ounce heavier. After playing with the Ezone for a few hours it becomes a much more intuitive racquet. What I mean by intuitive, the racquet wants to get out in front of the ball with ease, and you find yourself striking the ball much earlier and with a lot more confidence.
I didn’t notice any power or feel drop off with the lighter Yonex Ezone 100

Here is a quick review. For more in-depth review, please watch the video.

• Forehand: Very smooth and plush to hit, the racquet likes to get out in front of shot, so your shots are clean and crisp.
  Good access to spin and direction, hitting out on a flat ball goes where you want, and depth of shot is easily obtained.
  Hitting targets on the court was very easy.
• Backhand: Like the forehand, very good access to spin and the ability to flatten out the shot while keeping the ball in court was a plus. My down the line backhand is back with this racquet. I lost the ability to accurately hit down the line with my Vcore Pro, but I am happy to say, the Yonez Ezone 100 had no problems sticking that backhand down the line.
• Volleys: The Yonex Ezone is very maneuverable at the net. I didn’t really get to stick some hard returns, but I believe in time, the racquet will be very solid at the net.
• Serve: The serve was the most pleasant surprise. The racquet really delivers on the serve. My first serve, which is flat had enormous pop and movement. Velocity was the same as my Vcore Pro. The ability to slice my second serve was so easy and the second serve with this racquet has both spin and depth.

Final Thoughts:

The 2025 Yonex Ezone 100 racquet was a pleasure to hit with. The comfort level was amazing. The feel of the racquet was smooth and it only felt better each time I used it.
The best part of this racquet is the ease to find the sweet spot. For a 100 square inch racquet, it is usually not this easy to find the sweet spot.
