Probably on nex restring gotta emphasize on those fragile stickers, bad approach by yonex

Thx for sharing bro.

If it comes down to N90 or the VT-ZF, I'm personally still going to go with N90 just because it feels almost identical to the AT700 and won't require any further training efforts by me. That may change if I play more with the ZF, but the AT700 line was like a drug and I'm forever hooked!

It's like eating McDonalds french fries, it'll ruin you for any other fries!

I hope this helps.

Optiblue, thank you very much for your time spent on writing such a detailed & concise comparison review on VTZF, N90 & AT700 1st gen..I have been longing for this review ... haha..
Finally YY has made a racket other than AT700 1st that put a smile on your face

As times goes by , please do share with us, if you do have other opinion on VTZF ..

It is clearly described the conflict that i have to dealt with every time i am in MC-D, either take a package or none

Having one or two bites of french fries will torture me inside out

Yup, exact same thing happened to mine in the same spot. I'll be using mine so not too big of an issue! You might be better off with a 4U version as it'll be lighter for you if you're having problems with ZF. Otherwise it just wasn't meant to be!

Sure I'll post again if my opinion vastly differs as I play with it! As of right now though, it's probably yonex's only successor to the AT700.

What is the cause of your racket to be broken? What is the tension you strung it at?

**kcjxs** · 03-20-2012, 10:17 AM

Strung at 23lb only. My zf hit my partner racket. No damage to his racket (low end racket). Any chance that I could claim warranty?

I don't think you could if it is due to mishit...You might try your luck though.. YY team would know that the breakage of the racket is due to mishit or defect product..

I doubt it since it was a racket clash that broke it. I think Yonex would be able to see the damage and conclude it was broken by a racket clash. You can always try and hope but I wouldn't bet money on it.
