Yonex EZONE tennis racquets!

Tuesday, February 8th, 2011

For anyone that watched Ana Ivanovic at this year’s US Open, you caught one of the first glimpses of the new Yonex racquets that were later released on October 1.  The initial line consisted of three racquets, all under theEZONE label, none of which were actually in her hands. Starting at the Western and Southern Financial Group Women’s Open, Ivanovic began using a new frame, which was painted entirely black leading up to the US Open.  The appearance of her racquet now resembles the new EZONE 100, but underneath the paint, the frame is still in its prototype stages.

The Importance of Strings

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

Strings are the only part of our gear that touches the ball during play. There are many resources on the web that do a fine job of describing the different string types and their physical properties so there’s no sense in rehashing the basics of that information. What I hope to do is to explain in greater depth some of the finer points of string technology and science, provide some examples that help explain areas that seem to confuse many people, and show how we can then use this information to make choices to best help our tennis abilities. Hang in there for a little bit, and we’ll soon see how it all works together. (more…)
