Yonex has always taken a different engineering approach from European manufacturers — isometric head geometry, specific layup philosophies, and construction priorities that produce a distinctive feel that either resonates strongly with a player or doesn't. The Percept series represents Yonex's current flagship for advanced club and competitive players, and the Percept 97 at 310g is the standard competitive entry point into the line.
The 97 sq in head and 16x19 pattern produce a setup focused on spin-assisted baseline play — more open than the denser 97D, more spin-friendly than the heavier 97H. RA 60 stiffness is notably flexible for a competitive frame, which contributes to the arm comfort reputation the Percept has built. Swingweight at 315 puts it squarely in the mainstream advanced category — enough mass for stability, not so heavy as to restrict swing speed on faster exchanges.
For advanced club and competitive players who prefer a flexible, spin-oriented setup with genuine arm comfort, and who want the distinctive Yonex construction quality without compromising on competitive specifications.
