I've played with 98" frames for a few years now. As my technique's improved I actually feel like I can control more power effectively, and tried going back and testing my old ezone 100 from a few years back. I played surprisingly well with it.

Now where I seemed to struggle a bit was redirecting pace and defending when stretched out in corners. I just felt like I couldn't really enough on the ball to get it going where I wanted, not really power but direction. I have a Percept 100D and felt it did a much better job in these scenarios.

So mostly wondering if what I'm experiencing is expected, or maybe I was just a bit late to the ball and not getting my weight through properly.

I saw the new vCore have a 98L version. I thought this was pretty interesting. From the specs it seems they largely took weight out of the handle and a tiny bit off the hoop, so the balance is a whole 1cm higher but the swingweight is only 3g lower.

Obviously this is nice for customisation but I was curious what it actually feels like to hit with. I'd fully expect it to be less stable on volleys, but what about ground strokes?
