YONEX - ASTROX 99 PRO BADMINTON RACKET - WHITE TIGER

MADE IN JAPAN

You can have it strung to A STRING OF YOUR CHOICE @ YOUR DESIRED TENSION at a discounted rate with priority pick up time! Strung on THE ONLY YONEX PROTECH 8 electronic stringing machine in NZ to the highest standard by an OFFICIAL YONEX STRINGER with experience since 1993. We specialise in stringing @ high tensions! If you are unsure, our stringer is actually a Yonex Official stringer and a high performance coach, we are more than happy to give some advice if you would like. Just let us know what level you play at.

NAMD

ASTROX 77 uses a world’s-first, new dimension graphite material, Namd, which greatly improves the adhesion of the graphite fibers and resin by attaching nanomaterial directly to the graphite fiber.In high performance racquets, it is common to combine nanomaterials with resin that connects graphite fibers, but in Namd, nanomaterials are directly adhered to the graphite fibers and resin is greatly increased. This major improvement produces a shaft that flexes and stores energy, delivering explosive force on impact with the shuttle.   Revolutionary GraphiteA world-first, new dimension graphite material, Namd, greatly improves the adhesion of the graphite fibers and resin by attaching nanomaterial directly to the graphite fiber.In high performance racquets, it is common to combine nanomaterials with resin that connects graphite fibers, but in Namd, nanomaterials are directly adhered to the graphite fibers and resin is greatly increased.

AERO+BOX FRAME

Combines solid hitting feel and quick swing.

ISOMETRIC

Enlarged Sweet Spot ISOMETRIC^TM technology continues to help the world’s greatest players achieve global success. Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC^TM design increases the sweet spot by 7%*. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC^TM racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings. ISOMETRIC^TM delivers greater control without sacrificing power. ISOMETRIC^TM is a Trademark of Yonex CO., LTD. *Tested by Yonex

ROTATIONAL GENERATOR SYSTEM

Counterbalanced Weight Distribution By applying the counterbalance theory, weight is distributed throughout the grip end, frame top and the joint for maximum control. The transition to the next shot can be performed smoothly with a rapid succession.

SOLID FEEL CORE

Cuts VibrationThe built-in solid feel core cuts harmful miscellaneous vibration at impact. Solid feel core is carried in all racquets manufactured in Japan.

EXTRA SLIM SHAFT

Thinnest, Strongest Ever Produced by YonexCutting edge NANOMETRIC carbon technology is used to produce an ultra-thin, ultra-tough, aerodynamic shaft, created for a stronger and more intense shot.

ENGERY BOOST CAP PLUS

Uniquely shaped cap which maximizes shaft performance.The front allows the shaft to flex, while the sides arch-shaped curve stabilizes the racquet face by preventing the shaft from twisting.

VOLUME CUT RESIN

Improvements*¹ from the VOLUME CUT RESIN can also be seen in the frame and grommets. The frame structure is evolved with a larger sweet spot made possible by the strength-reinforced Isometric head shape. The grommets are improved with a new pattern that uses larger, strategically-placed grommets, a technology that allows more string movement at impact and ultimately increasing shuttle hold for assertive shot-making. The 88 S models, designed for front-court players, will have longer shuttle hold for precise net control and the 88 D models, designed for back-court players, will balance repulsion and shuttle hold for maximum power.

NEW ISOMETRIC HEAD SHAPE

NEW BUILT-IN T-JOINT

The lightweight T-joint increses stability of the shuttle on the strings, maximising power and control.

POWER ASSIST BUMPER

Attached to enforce heavier, increased power by configuring the weight directed into the shuttlecock with a tungsten-infused nylon bumper.
