🎵 String strategy for each frame

These are different rackets — they deserve different string setups.

EZONE 98 Tour (2025)

Very flexible frame (RA 62) — arm-friendly. Pair with a crisp co-poly like Luxilon ALU Power Rough at 54–58 lbs to add control and prevent the string bed feeling too elastic.

EZONE 98 (2025)

Balanced stiffness (RA 63). A mid-stiffness co-poly like Babolat RPM Team or Wilson Revolve at 52–56 lbs gives a comfortable all-court setup without sacrificing spin or control.

⚖️ Specs Equalizer

Can I make these specs match?

To match the swingweight of the EZONE 98 Tour (2025) (SW 335), add 12g of lead tape at the 12 o'clock position on the EZONE 98 (2025). This raises its swingweight from 320 to approximately 336 kg·cm².
