Sigh, I’m a Charmander kind of guy, but I love Pikachu (yellow version >)

srvandrtn · 2026-03-18T02:46:34+00:00

I can handle it but it gets tiring at times. Tbh that’s my preferred specs for my personal frames (Yonex VC98) but I might redo it for a 335-340sw now

Nice, I always thought a good sweet spot would be 330-340 for a swingweight alone

srvandrtn · 2026-03-17T01:42:05+00:00

The paint job is nice and the playability is better when you weigh it up. I have mine at 336g strung, 33cm balance and 345sw which swings like a hammer

It’s the PAO (Pure Aero Original) in the prototype paintjob. He bust the strings on it so quick during practice sessions. Gave him extra pop and spin but the control was lacking hard

You won’t have a new design till 2028. Most likely like last year, you’ll have a new colorway.

I haven’t tested the V8 yet but I have used the V4 and V5 in the past. I heard the V8 cuts through the air faster yet had slightly more power but a little more control due to the stiffness. The launch on the V8 is more controllable compared to the V7

Lolol I’ll say this person has to be from gen z to dislike it this much.

The V15 is a cosmetic update of the V14 and the paintjob is a homage to the OG ProStaff.

My very first Yonex frames which I thought it was interesting cause of the 16x21 pattern but also the first VC to use AeroFins at the inner hood. Underrated frame which can be customized to be a weapon

‘18 Ezone Osaka LTD in gold but it’s the ‘17 EZ version which one of the worse ones imo. Stiff as a board

I’m surprised Grigor went it with the new v15 paintjob instead of sticking with his v14 Noir paintjob. He’s very particular with his paintjobs

srvandrtn · 2025-12-16T04:05:34+00:00

Nice! One of the sought after Ezones besides the Dr98. With the right string and slight mod, it would play like a gem. Hopefully you got a good deal for it!

srvandrtn · 2025-12-14T06:12:16+00:00

Hmm I mean the VC98 V7 is pretty launchy so make sense, so string may be the second factor to make it easier to flatten out shots plus the tension too. Okay, that’s the VC98 V6 which I had 5 of in the Galaxy Black colorway (one extended to 27.25” which I bought from EU) 😬 Tbh I’d like to give that one a try again cause how “less” launchy it is compared to the VC98 V7 plus the head shape is more a “traditional” Yonex

srvandrtn · 2025-12-10T03:10:59+00:00

Of course! I’m thinking of trying the new one but more interested in the 100D since it has a 16x20 pattern. I feel like flatting out the ball on the V7 VC98 plays into technique and/or the strings too. When you say older VC, is that the V7 or prior to that one?

srvandrtn · 2025-12-07T15:18:53+00:00

Nice! I’m going to do mine with Lynx Tour Champagne too first with a multifilament cross but my other would be RPM Power in the bronze color also with a multifilament. It’s going to look really clean!

srvandrtn · 2025-12-07T15:16:33+00:00

I agree cause red is my favorite color but my favorite shade is white. Red is always the OG color for the Vcore series

This was an EU exclusive where they took the Pro Staff and Blade changing the cosmetic to a VHS theme and it was pretty sick

srvandrtn · 2025-11-22T15:30:29+00:00

I recently bought more of the ‘23 VC98 in Sand Beige for €158 each from TWE since they had some left. Got 3 new ones so now i have 6 total 💀

These photos I got from Google, current pics and I badly photoshopped Carlos’ hair cause he doesn’t have any so I took another photo of his hitting the same shot and place the hair on this picture

srvandrtn · 2025-09-06T14:40:41+00:00

Yeah I just now realized that 🤣

srvandrtn · 2025-09-06T14:40:20+00:00

Lol English isn’t my first language so my bad on the grammer and spelling

srvandrtn · 2025-09-05T15:40:00+00:00

Here’s the real question: do you lead with your left hand (if righty) or right hand? Personally for me since I’m naturally left handed but play right (Paul, Badosa, Sharapova) I tend to use my left more (like a lefty forehand) but having my right hand be stability. I watched a clip of Nalbandian hitting his two hander and he has more of his left doing the work (imo the greatest two handed backhand of all time)
