The 2025 YONEX PERCEPT 97 TENNIS RACKET features new technology and structure combining with innovation to increase string snapback and movement, giving players access to the most spin in Yonex's tennis history.
The new Percept 97 is perfect for experienced and advanced tennis players looking for a flexible tennis racquet with precision and feel.
TECHNOLOGY
-
ISOMETRIC™
When compared to a conventional round frame, the square-shaped ISOMETRIC racquet possesses a 7% larger sweet spot*. This results in a more forgiving racquet for improved playability.
- SERVO FILTERA transparent and elastic film placed between graphite layers helps bond the layers while maintaining its elastic characteristics even after the moulding 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. The 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.
-
FLEXCON SYSTEM
The tapered and elongated box frame allows the shaft to flex comfortably, extending the ball pocketing duration for more feel and control. The flexibility is enhanced by the "2G-Namd™ Flex Force," a highly elastic graphite that enables 15%* more flexibility on the racquet shaft.
-
STIFF RACKET FACE DESIGN
The frame employs morew layers* of graphite to increase rigidity of the racquet face. 3% more stability on the racquet face, providing improved consistency in ball trajectory. -
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 fibre composites.
