The Yonex PERCEPT 100L in Midnight Navy is aimed at players who want the feedback and accuracy associated with PERCEPT without handling the full mass of the standard 100. Its 280 g nominal weight can make preparation more manageable during fast exchanges, particularly for progressing players and all-court doubles tennis. Importantly, it retains the generous 100-square-inch head rather than reducing the hitting area to achieve a lighter feel.


Less total mass, a purposeful balance


With a 335 mm balance, this is not simply the regular PERCEPT 100 with 20 grams removed. The distribution of weight helps preserve some presence through the ball, while the lighter frame encourages quicker changes of position. A 16/19 pattern lets players work with height, spin and touch, and the ISOMETRIC head geometry helps when contact is not perfectly central.


Yonex uses FlexCon System, 2G-Namd Flex Force and SERVO FILTER to build a connected impact response. Midnight Navy brings an understated visual identity to that same platform. Choose the 100L if you want to move the racquet with confidence and develop precise placement, rather than commit to the greater frame mass of a more demanding control option.

Technologies

2G-Namd Flex Force

2G-Namd Flex Force is a highly elastic graphite material that allows the frame to flex and snap back quickly during impact. It is designed to support ball pocketing and spin potential while retaining a responsive feel.

FlexCon System

The shaped, elongated shaft is engineered for controlled flex through contact, extending the ball-pocketing sensation and supporting deliberate placement on well-executed strokes.

ISOMETRIC

Yonex ISOMETRIC uses a more squared-off head geometry that optimizes main and cross string intersections. Yonex reports an approximately 7% larger sweet spot than a comparable conventional round head, supporting a more forgiving response when contact is off centre.

Servo Filter

SERVO FILTER is an elastic film integrated between graphite layers in the frame. It is designed to reduce unwanted vibrations while preserving useful feedback to the hand for a more precise impact feel.

Stiff Racquet Face Design

Additional graphite layers reinforce the racquet face during impact. Yonex positions this as a way to stabilize ball trajectory and improve shot-to-shot consistency while allowing the shaft to retain its designed flex.
