Noteworthy features include an elongated shaft for increased pocketing, flexibility, and command, plus more graphite added to the racquet face for added  stability and power. To enhance comfort, Yonex adds a Servo Filter, with a thin elastic layer in the shaft to filter out sharp vibrations. Like its antecedent, this racket's graphite layup is advanced by 2G-NAMD Flex Force, a material technology that lets the frame flex suitably upon impact. Ultimately, the Percept 97, with its tasteful blend of speed, spin, and feel, is a magnificent choice for those after a lightweight, spin-friendly players racket with exemplary control and comfort.

Technologies

Isometric > Enlarges your sweet spot by 7%. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped Isometric racket optimises the intersection of the main and cross strings

Servo Filter > A transparent film placed between graphite enhances flexibility when pressure is applied and filters out unnecessary vibration. Allowing for 60%* more flexible and 500%* faster vibration dampening than graphite

Flexcon System > This system helps the racquet to flex and extend the ball pocketing duration at the impact

2G-NAMD Flex Force > Flex Force graphite allows the racquet to quickly flex and snap back for greater spin and faster ball acceleration off the string bed

Stiff Racket Face Design > Increase the graphite content of the racquet face. This improves ball control by stabilizing the racquet face at impact. Resulting in 3%* more stability on the racquet face

Lock Booster > An improved grommet design that promotes string contact for efficient energy transfer and ball crushing power
