EZONE 98 2025

The EZONE 98 2025 succeeds the 2022 edition as an incremental refinement — playtesters found it plays very similarly with slight enhancements to user-friendliness. Power was characterized as one of the frame's standout traits, with the thick hoop and fast swing combining to produce one of the easiest 98-square-inch racquets to generate pace with. Feel was described as dampened and muted but more coherent than the previous generation, whose stiffer-yet-muted character struck reviewers as less natural. Spin production was not considered a primary strength — playtesters reported a low launch angle and noted the frame favors flatter, more penetrating ball trajectories over heavy topspin. The aerodynamic beam produced a fast, whippy feel through the air on groundstrokes, and the isometric head shape contributed a large sweet spot that improved forgiveness on off-center hits. Stability improved over the previous generation according to playtesters, volleys drew praise for solidity at the net, and the quick swing gave the frame strong serving potential. Control drew mixed assessments — several reviewers found it surprisingly precise for a power-oriented frame, while others reported the racquet could feel hard to manage when not fully set up for the shot.
