Yonex VCORE 95 8th Gen

Designed for all-around players seeking aerodynamic spin with consistent comfort, the 8th-generation Yonex VCORE 95 is a racquet for experienced players who want a compact, control-oriented racquet that, in the right hands, will deliver on spin and power for a dynamic and impactful all-court presence.

The 95-square-inch head offers a smaller, more precise hitting zone that rewards players who consistently find the sweet spot. At 10.9 ounces, the frame’s heavier weight delivers excellent stability for taking big swings or redirecting pace at net, while its head-light balance keeps it highly manoeuvrable for quick reactions and easy access to spin. The open string pattern further boosts spin potential and adds a touch of extra power. 

The latest VCORE introduces the most advanced spin-focused engineering in the series’ history, beginning with Yonex’s signature ISOMETRIC square-shaped frame and a newly sculpted upper hoop that together create the line’s largest-ever sweet spot for enhanced forgiveness and cleaner contact. Expanded inner grooves increase frame flex for improved ball hold and feel, reducing the harshness of off-centre hits while boosting spin potential, and newly designed grommets allow greater string movement to generate stronger snapback. The frame has also been aerodynamically refined based on different swing types to reduce air resistance, enabling smoother racquet head speed and sharper, higher-spinning shots. Complementing these structural upgrades, Yonex’s proprietary carbon technologies integrated throughout the frame, yoke, shaft, and grip enhance power, stability, and control—working in unison to give players a confident, consistent, and high-spin response on every strike.

Trusted by elite players on tour, the new VCORE series was developed through close collaboration with professional athletes to deliver high-spin performance that adapts to a wide range of swing types and power levels. With improved stability, comfort, and racquet head speed, it’s an impressive update that should strongly appeal to experienced players who need exceptional control with outstanding spin potential for an aggressive full court game.

• ISOMETRIC: Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC design increases the sweet spot by 7%. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings. ISOMETRIC technology delivers greater control without sacrificing power.
  
• Aero Trench - Reduced Drag: To achieve faster head speeds for increased spin potential, the new Aero Trench reduces drag by uniquely hiding the grommets located at the top of the racquet frame.
  
• LINER TECH - For Maximum Spin Potential: Newly engineered straight hole grommets allow more string movement on off-centered shots.
  
• VDM (VIBRATION DAMPENING MESH): First used in Yonex’s snowboards to reduce vibrations at impact, Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM) is now used in four of Yonex’s racquet series. VDM is a stretchy mesh material that is wrapped around the graphite within the grip to filter unwanted vibrations and improve touch and precision.
  
• 2G-NAMD FLEX FORCE: Aggressive, attacking spin for pinpoint control is achieved through a carbon nanotube structure that binds the graphite fibers together, which reduces energy loss. Due to its resilient properties, the material flexes and provides quick snapback. Namd is technology developed by Nitta Co., Ltd. to uniformly disperse carbon nanotubes in carbon fiber composites.
  
• SERVO FILTER: A transparent and elastic film placed between graphite layers helps bond the layers while maintaining its elastic characteristics even after the molding process. This unique film absorbs unwanted vibrations, provides fine-tuned flex and snapback to each shot, delivering precise sensory feedback from the ball to the hand. SERVO FILTER is a vibration-absorbing film developed by the Mitsubishi Chemical Group, which has high bonding properties with graphite and excels in both flexibility and durability
