YONEX Percept 97D 4 1/2" (G4) Tennis Racquet for Advanced Players | Stiff Racquet Face Design, Pinpoint Precision, Feel, and Flex, Olive Green

The YONEX Percept 97D Tennis Racquet is built for advanced players seeking ultimate precision, control, and feel. Engineered with a 97 sq in head and a dense 18x20 string pattern, it rewards clean ball striking with unmatched directional accuracy. A standout feature is the stiff racquet face design, which incorporates additional layers of graphite to boost rigidity. This delivers 3% greater face stability, ensuring more consistent shot trajectories even under heavy pace. Equipped with 2G-Namd Flex Force, developed by Nitta Co., Ltd., the racquet binds graphite fibers with carbon nanotubes to create a resilient, energy-efficient structure. This innovation reduces energy loss and provides explosive snapback, giving players the ability to generate aggressive, attacking spin without sacrificing precision. The frame also integrates Yonex's iconic ISOMETRIC technology, which enlarges the sweet spot by 7% compared to conventional round frames. By optimizing the intersection of main and cross strings, the ISOMETRIC shape increases forgiveness and enhances control, allowing for steadier responses across the hitting zone.Combining modern materials with a heritage of craftsmanship, the Percept 97D delivers a plush yet connected feel, making it an exceptional choice for strong, strategic players who thrive on consistency, controlled spin, and all-court command.

• STIFF RACQUET FACE DESIGN - Engineered with additional layers of graphite, the Percept 97D strengthens its racquet face for enhanced rigidity; this structural upgrade delivers a 3% increase in face stability, ensuring a more reliable response at contact; players benefit from improved shot consistency and steadier ball trajectories, especially during high-intensity rallies
• PLAYER'S PRECISION FRAME - Designed for intermediate to advanced players, the 97 sq in head, dense 18×20 string pattern, and 21 mm thin beam prioritize pinpoint accuracy and stability; at approximately 320 g / 11.3 oz (unstrung), it offers serious mass without sacrificing racket maneuverability - a true player's control frame
• SERVO FILTER - A transparent and elastic film placed between graphite layers helps bond the layers while maintaining its elastic characteristics even after the molding 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
• 2G-NAMD FLEX FORCE - The Percept 97D incorporates 2G-Namd Flex Force, a breakthrough material innovation where carbon nanotubes are uniformly dispersed within the graphite fibers; this advanced structure, developed by Nitta Co., Ltd., enhances resilience, reduces energy loss, and generates rapid snapback; the result is aggressive, attacking spin potential paired with pinpoint shot control
• ISOMETRIC DESIGN - EXPANDED SWEET SPOT - The Percept 97D features Yonex's signature ISOMETRIC frame, engineered to enlarge the sweet spot by 7% compared to conventional round racquets; Its square-shaped geometry optimizes the alignment of main and cross strings, producing a more forgiving response; this technology enhances control and consistency while preserving the racquet's inherent power
