The racquet has a head size of 95 sq. inches and weighs around 310 grams. The length of the racquet is 27 inches and the string pattern is 16×20. Evidently, Denis has modified the racquet to suit his style of play and the details of the modifications are not disclosed by Yonex and Denis.

Yonex markets the racquet as the best-spin racquet in Yonex tennis history. The ISOMETRIC frame in combination with the latest innovative Japanese technology makes the VCORE perfect for a higher spin. Moreover, the new Aero Fin technology above the throat creates a faster, thinner frame for increased ball-pocketing.

Also, the Aero Trench reduces air resistance which makes it easier to maneuver the ball according to the will of the player using this amazing racquet.
