Yonex Astrox 88D Pro Badminton Racket (Camel Gold) with a stiff, 10mm longer shaft and head-heavy balance, has been designed for the Dominant, back-court player. This longer shaft attribute results in a racket that gives lots of attacking power and is great for those who want to deliver a powerful smash.
The Astrox 88D Pro features Yonex’s new Energy Boost Cap, which provides a boost in energy transfer from the player to the racket by way of flexing the shaft in a single direction, reducing torsion of the shaft and energy loss. Combined with the new and innovative Namd graphite technology which produces extra flex and snap-back, this racket gives additional power without the loss of control.
The point of flex on the Yonex Astrox 88D Pro is at the mid-point of the frame, allowing only the upper half to flex and the player to accumulate energy and momentum enabling the stringbed to transmit power to the shuttle as efficiently as is possible.
