2015 Yonex VCORE SI 100 LITE 100inch 16*19 280g

This racquet sits in the spin category and is designed around its primary performance strengths. The 100 in² head size boosts forgiveness and sweet spot size. A stiffness rating of 70 RA results in a firmer, more responsive feel at impact. With an unstrung weight of 280 g, the frame favors maneuverability. The 16x19 string pattern (semi open) influences spin access and launch angle. Performance-wise, it scores 100/100 for power, 100/100 for spin, and 40/100 for control, outlining its on-court behavior. Comfort is more limited, making string selection especially important. Its characteristics suggest a higher potential for arm fatigue if paired with stiff strings. It is best suited for intermediate players.

User comments for racquets with similar specifications highlight predictable on-court characteristics. Many players mention easy access to spin and depth, particularly from the baseline, with a launch angle that helps keep the ball heavy. Some players report that comfort is not the main strength, making string choice and tension especially important. A recurring theme is the potential for arm discomfort for sensitive players, depending on setup and hitting style. Overall, it is most often recommended by users for intermediate players.
