On right this moment’s video I’m reviewing the third era Yonex Astrox 88s Professional.
As you possibly can see that is kind of metallic silver, black and like an aquamarine decals. It’s a stiff flex head heavy racket, however I’d say the top weight is extra in the direction of this a part of the racket than it’s, distributed on the high finish.
This can be a 4u g5 model and the UK there’s additionally a 3u g4, however in different nations there can be probably the complete vary with the 3u and the 4u and the totally different grip sizes. As you’d think about with these rackets now and Yonex there’s additionally a Tour model, the Sport model and the Play model.
So how does this racket play?
Effectively I discovered it actually good enjoyable to play with. It’s weighty sufficient that you may really feel the top and you may management it, however to not the extent that it could be thought of a little bit of a hindrance or a fatiguing racket.
I discovered it nice for all of the kind of web work, once I’m doing plenty of feeding there or once I’m feeding for defence. It’s been completely excellent for that.
It’s additionally actually highly effective too. So there are some individuals who simply can’t swing a very head heavy racket and get the very best from it. So this can be the reply for you. In case you are on the lookout for one thing the place it’s good to really feel the top weight, however you simply don’t just like the actually heavy obligation rackets, then this may occasionally slot in your class rather well.
That is additionally very very totally different from the 2nd era and extra in step with the first era in respect of the top form itself. And so it’s virtually gone again to the unique head form. I additionally really feel that there’s a kind of change right here within the aerodynamics, and the carbon feels very totally different to that utilized in earlier variations of this racket and possibly extra in step with that we discovered within the Arcsaber 11 Professional.
It’s obtained a kind of sharpness to it, a sleekness to it, and that every one helps very properly within the precise hitting of your shuttle. So for me I discovered it very very maneuverable. I’d say it’s a bit bit heavier than the Arcsaber 11 Professional, so in the event you needed one thing a bit bit lighter then possibly that can be your go to racket.
However for me I do like a bit little bit of head weight and I discovered this to be a very good good friend. I’ve used it for fairly a while now, it’s strung in Exbolt 68 at a rigidity of 28lbs and it strung up fantastically as you’d think about it will do, and has carried out admirably for each job I’ve set it. A lot in order that this has been a relentless companion in my bag because it was launched in March 2024.
So in case you are on the lookout for that sort of head heavy racket which is nice in protection, nice across the web as effectively, however you need some head weight for the rear court docket then this can be your go to racket, and I’d strongly advocate you give it a take a look at at one in every of your centres as quickly as you possibly can.
Unbelievable racket and I can’t think about this not being in my bag for a while to come back.
