Yonex Vcore 95 Review by Gladiators (Denis Shapovalov) 

Before i start watching this video, let me appreciate these guys and this channel. Thank you guys so much for giving us what we need. Merry Christmas to you all ❤

AYYYY LETS GOOOO glad to see my comment got featured in the intro😂 “in yonex we trust” is truly a quote for the ages. nice video, high quality as always. you guys did not disappoint on this highly anticipated review🙌🙌 anyways, i’m a college player who recently started playing with the 2018 vcore 95. my fellow teammates and i call this racquet the “banger machine” because you’re able to flatten the sh!t out of the ball and it STILL stays in the lines. but yes, you guys are correct: the 95 sq inch head and the 16/20 string pattern is perfect for attacking players who want to stay in control of the point and don’t want the racquet to give them any free power... and although it isn’t a spin machine, you can still get away with some topspin. plus, the sweet spot feels pretty generous for a 95. however, the fact that this racquet is very unforgiving with the sweet spot (especially on defense where extra power is needed), and at this level where everyone is a spin machine... i’m considering using the new 2022 ezone 98. p.s. i love your guy’s channel (honestly my favorite) because you’re not biased to sell a product like tennis warehouse, and you guys are actually high skilled players which bridges that gap for viewers like me to be able to hear opinions from people like you who play that modern power game and aren’t just recreational players, elderly players, or people who think they’re good just because they have a youtube channel #NoShade #AllLove 😂😂. plus you guys are really funny. keep it up! 🤝👍

You guys are awesome!!! Finally my racquet of choice VCORE 95!!!! :)

I don’t know whether you guys realize this or not, but your channel is the most entertaining video to the point where it doesn’t feel like watching a tennis racket review video. You guys succeeded in creating videos that go beyond tennis! That’s how good your channel is! Keep going! Cheers from Indo! 🇮🇩

Still don't know how you guys can only have around 5k subscriber 🤦🏻‍♂️ you're better than most tennis channels on YT

This channel's dedication is the best!! 😍 I'm manifesting those 10k views (and many more subscribers)! 💪🏼

I admit i don t care too much about the racquets (too happy with my current one and too broke to change), im mostly here for the humor and the highlights. Great job!

I hit this stick, it is BEAST. Using multi for more feel, serving is so confident. Agree with negative points, it is demanding..95sq is not forgiving.

Great review and thanks for the early Xmas present! I totally agree with all the points by both of you. It is a demanding racquet which forces the player to be very dedicated with their training to ensure they have very good footwork and technique. I find it is a frame that requires customisation, I have tried several setups and find 1.5g of lead tape at 9 and 3 for stability with volleys and only 1g at 12 position for jut a bit more pop and plough through. Lastly a hybrid string setup with this works best at about 48lbs tension as it is a stiff frame and no dampener but a rubber band works best for feedback. Anyway all in all a good objective review, top job and enjoy the Xmas period!

Yes, we do read the descriptions. You are a legend Grisha and so is Areg too! Been waiting for this review forever. Cheers boys.

In Yonex we trust, with Head we play. At least it seems to work with you guys, and me, by coincidence. I've tried the 2018 Vcore 95, but preferred to stick to my 2019 Head Prestige Pro. Both are not forgiving at all, but the Prestige with a bit of lead at 12 o'clock had way more spin and power. Sweetspot is still small for sure. Anyway, you should be 4.5 and up to use both in the match play. And, for my flat OH BH, both felt great, with more precision on the side of Head. Guys, keep up the good work! С наступающим :)

Finally! Been waiting for this for so long! Thanks guys.

You guys do the best reviews as you give honest feedbacks. This is the most entertaining tennis channel

Missed this as well 😰! On the other hand, I CANT STOP LAUGHING🤣🤣🤣🤣!! The humor in these videos are illegally funny! 😄 I tried this racquet because my coach uses this, and boy is it a great stick! Also the dedication is amazing, and I praise you and Areg!! I gotta start putting a reminder on my phone for every sunday, so I don’t miss these!!😅😅 Keep up the wonderful work guys!! (Also heard of the Yonex Regna? THE MOST UNNECESSARILY EXPENSIVE FRAME EVER!!😵😲)

This racket needs some customization, I put around 4gr of leqad tape at 3and9 and around 1.5g to 12 and that was a completely different racket, a real weapon....but you are right it's demanding anyways, for advanced players would work well... Spectacular intro guys 😃😂👍🏻

Have been looking forward to this review for a while! Great review guys, love the dedication you have to the channel. I’ve seen a response to every single comment on every video, Kudos! 👏🏼👏🏼

Bang on review! This frame (with a few grams of lead) got me playing a very forward leaning agressive game that Grisha is talking about. Being able to go for it without fear of overhitting time and time again really has taken my game to the next level.

Right in time when Shapovalov starts playing an Ezone ;) - love you guys regardless!

I feel that everyone harps on the 95 inch aspect too much. Lay it directly over a 100” Pure Aero. You’ll see it’s actually slightly wider at one point near the top and almost identical everywhere else above the 9-3 line. Only in the lower half is it actually narrower. I feel like if you’re hitting the ball that far down the string bed on any racquet you’re likely going to lose the point. As Grisha said, he normally plays with a dampener but doesn’t with the Vcore 95. When you add up the wasted space with a dampener on a Pure Aero, vs a Vcore 95 without one, the 95 actually has way more useable space. Serious request Can someone please take a look at an overlay of this 95 vs any traditional 100” racquet and share why the lower half of the string bed is contributing so much to the skill threshold of using this racquet?

You guys are so talented into making videos with those great videofragments with its effects.

Great video! I’m my opinion this stick it’s quite forgiving for a 95, I move to this from a blade 98 (18x20) so I find this thing more powerful than the blade… Also for me the balance has done wanders to my one hand backhand… But yeah…. Is a demanding stick, demand that you move well and not meet the ball late all the time, so if you want to end the match very tired, you need this racket, if not, better the ezone or the 98/100 But overall, the sweetspot it’s about the as big as the vcore pro 97 (in my opinion)

best tennis channel ever..imo 🤩🤩

Recently switched to this racket and glad to see you liked it Grisha. Did you guys like it in stock form or feel like you could’ve customised it? Great vid as always 👍🏻

Good review. Y'all might want to flip the colors on your ratings graph. With the white on the right side and the white letters on the left, it makes it look like you're giving the racquet really low ratings, when actually the negative spaces are the ratings for fh, bh, serve, volley.

Thanks guys! This is an excellent fun review and I believe spot on, very interesting thoughts on what exactly you are gaining with this one over a bigger Yonex head having said that I think this would be a great racquet for some "old school" fun haha although the joke might be on me! Thanks again! 👍🙏♥️🎾 Happy holidays

Everybody who wanted you to review it, already plays with the racket. Why? Do you need confirmation for your choice? I liked the SV95, Shapo‘s racket until a week ago, but it gave me arm pain. I’ve moved on to the 97H (330). Mine is 345 unstrung, including a heavy leather grip. And no, you don’t need to review it, it’s just the best racket ever made, for me.

The intros get better and every time 😂

Lol, that low budget heist scene in the beginning actually cracked me up. Well played good sirs.

you guys definitely deserve more subs

which do you recommend more, this racket or pure aero 98 2023 ? does the head size feel similar?

YEEESSS finally:) lol now lets watch the video

Love it. Giving the people what they want!

Always appreciate your reviews, even if I will never get this racquet. In fact, thanks to your review on this racquet, I know it's not for me lol.

Nice video! Salutes from Brasil 🇧🇷

Right as Shapo switches, great timing lads

YES! Great idea. I'm going to steal a VCORE racquet too 🤗

Hi Glads! Big fan here. Thanks for reviewing all those popular frames. Is it possible for you Glads to also review Dunlop CX 200? It is a super underrated racquet that is very solid and deserve more coverage (kinda like you guys). I really want to hear how you guys review it!! PLEASE!!

Could you guys possibly review the Technifibre T-Rebound 298. I know it’s technically a “WTA” racket, but the Iga racket seems pretty solid

I also love the vcore 95 but too demanding! I switched to the 2021 vcore pro 97 and am happy! Wondering what you guys think.

Shapo used to play with this frame! I think for the next year he is switching to an Ezone

Yonex 95 Vcore teaches you the energetics of tennis.. it's the 2nd law of Tennis dynamics.

That intro though 😂

I saw Shapovalov playing against Nadal the other day and I think he switched to the new ezone or it could be a paint job.

I'd agree. The racquet isn't special unless you're willing to customize and possess all the qualities mentioned by the boys. If you're not a legit 4.5 NTRP look elsewhere

My favorite channel!!!!

Are you going to be reviewing the new Yonex Ezone 98 2022 when its released in Jan?

24kg of tension is too high, and thats because u feel the small sweetspot. This racquet needs low tension, or u have to add some lead tape.

Гриша привет)) что выбрал бы для себя? vcore 98 или vcore 95 или Wilson pro stuff 97 315g

Hey Glads, I currently use a Pure Drive 2018 and I hit with a lot of spin in my shots. As I've progressed, I feel the power is too much for me and I'd like to shift to a more control-oriented racquet that would still support my highly-western topspinny (if that’s a word, but u know what i mean 🤦🏽😆) forehand. I have a flat backhand tho, so am a little bit worried to shift to the Aero. I am currently looking at the 2022 Boom MP and Speed MP, also Pure Aero *VS* and Vcore 98 on the side. A general suggestion for a frame would be good from you guys 😄 Thank you!

Most channels have terrible editing in the beginning but you guys edit your videos better than even the youtubers who are on yt for years even though you started your channels a few months ago.

Again, nice review. Entertaining and enlightening. Understanding that this is a difficult racquet to use, wouldn’t it be an advantage to someone trying to elevate their game? It occurs to me that perhaps a smaller head would encourage a quicker improvement?

any difference between the old and the new vcore 95?

thanks for the review, can you recommend a string for spin & low in power?

Great video. An interesting suggestion. Give the Wilson Ultra Pro V.3 a try. One of the best feeling rackets Wilson makes now in my opinion.

Hi. Do you have the 2 piece stringing instructions for the new Yonex VCore 95?

The music in the intro is really good. How do they have that as a broll library choice?

How would you compare it to the prostaff 97 v13 (not the RF version)? especially in terms of forgiveness? btw: love your reviews! keep it going.

I had the exact same experience as you (Grisha) word for word. This racket produces a good ball but demands you move your feet or be punished. I bought into the hype and im experiencing buyers remorse. The forgiveness was exaggerated. And if it's for the attacking player, why does it feel so bad on volleys ?? If it needs customization, there are better rackets to lead up.

I just bought the racquet after watching your video. you guys are better than Yonex PR team 😂 any recommendation for string set ups?(strings, tension) I am aggressive flat hitting baseliner.

Shapovalov was using an eZone recently, no? At least the paint job is the new eZone model.

There is a new Vcore 95 model on the market. You know what to do...

OMG!!!i love u guys!!

hi, pls suggest a racquet similar to wilson pro staff classic 6.1 , 95 square head size.

Hey guys, had a question for you, hope you can let me know. I've been wondering what racket does the other player use, while the reviewer is playing with the subject racket. In this case is it another vcore95, or is it your usual, main ones? Thanks, xoxo

hey please could you review the Yonex Ezone Ace?

Will you guys review the Gravity Tour?

Really nice💪🏻

Finally👍

how do you compare this to gravity pro?

Pls do the new ezone

Have you guys ever thought about reviewing string

He play with sv95

"Arigato arigato" BAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHSHAHA

Yonex Vcore 95 or Wilson Pro Staff 97?

This racquet is not sth special. It plays harsh. No sweet spot. Power and spin are ok. The swing motion is unatural…. no fluidity….Like one piece. Previous version was better and had more feel. Great on serves like most yonexes. In general after VDM yonex sticks are mediocre on ball feedback/connection. Only the latest VCP97 has decent feel despite VDM.

Old stuff Shapo has new racquet...

Гриша, адреналин на 1.30 в ракетке на 95 на 24 кг оторвет руку любому любителю, а профессионала лишит профессии😂😂😂.
