Yonex Astrox 55 Badminton Racket, from the ASTROX series, which is quickly gaining a strong following among the world’s top players, including Akane Yamaguchi, is specifically designed for intermediate players.

Yonex has developed a racket that allows players to maximize their power and increase smash speed. By combining the Rotational Generator System, a technology shared by all rackets in the ASTROX line, with an overall reduction in weight, to perfectly match the swing speeds of intermediate players, the ASTROX 55 increases maneuverability during power shots, such as smashes, ultimately increasing smash speed. Additionally, the shaft employs the next-generation graphite material Namd, which helps it to quickly flex and return to normal, further increasing smash speeds.

Please note, where applicable, we will relogo the strings on rackets which have been restrung.

The ISOMETRIC™ equalizes the length of the main and cross strings in the string-bed, enlarging the sweet spot for more consistent accuracy even on off-centre hits.

Some Yonex rackets include this 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.

‘NEW’ Built-in T-Joint is manufactured from a special lightweight plastic combined with epoxy resin and foaming agent that enhances quality and performance by increasing the stability of the shuttle on the string bed and through the air.

The single-pass grommet hole construction provides more grommet holes for a more high-performance stringing pattern.

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.
