YONEX PERCEPT 97 TENNIS RACKET

The Yonex Percept 97 is a control-oriented tennis racquet built for players who want heavy spin without giving up accuracy. Its frame design improves string snapback, so every stroke produces more ball rotation, a better trajectory and sharper shot placement. It marks a new benchmark for spin in Yonex’s tennis range.

Made for intermediate and advanced players, the Percept 97 feels flexible yet stable. It transfers energy efficiently from racquet to ball, helping you stay in control during fast baseline rallies and tactical net approaches. You get power, comfort and clear feedback on every shot.

Unstrung: This racket comes without strings. Stringing must be done separately before use.

Key Technologies

Isometric Frame: Larger Sweet Spot
The square-shaped Isometric head increases the sweet spot by 7%*. It improves the intersection of the main and cross strings, giving you more consistent contact, better accuracy and added control without losing power.

2G-Namd Flex Force: Precision Spin
Carbon nanotubes bind the graphite fibres together, which reduces energy loss and speeds up snapback. The result is aggressive spin, accurate shots and a lightweight, maneuverable feel with excellent durability. The technology was developed by Nitta Co., Ltd.

Servo Filter: Vibration Control
A transparent, elastic film between the graphite layers absorbs unwanted vibration. It gives you a comfortable arm feel and clear feedback from ball to hand. It was developed by the Mitsubishi Chemical Group.

Flexcon System: Better Feel and Control
The tapered, elongated box frame lets the shaft flex naturally and holds the ball on the strings longer. Combined with 2G-Namd Flex Force, shaft flexibility increases by 15%*, so you get a responsive yet stable racquet.

Stiff Racquet Face: Added Stability
Extra graphite layers* stiffen the racquet face for 3% greater stability than previous control-oriented models. This keeps your shot trajectory and accuracy consistent across strokes.
