Description: Astrox 88DP AX88DP was launched in 2022. The racket features an evolved weight distribution design that enhances the racket’s rotation power. The weight distribution of the Astrox series rackets has been fully upgraded. By using high-strength new material volume compression resin throughout the entire frame, a more nuanced weight distribution is achieved, providing the necessary rotation power for continuous strong attacks. This design is aimed at high-speed evolving doubles, offering smoother controllability.
The new grommet design incorporates high-strength new material volume compression resin, with a coarse hole design on both sides of the frame for the first time. This improves the deformable range of the string and increases the racket face contact time during impact, enhancing the ball holding ability. Based on the characteristics of the S and D versions, the optimal number of coarse holes are positioned in the most suitable locations to deliver performance tailored to both front and back court players.
The new frame design increases the frame rigidity and enlarges the sweet spot. Compared to the previous model, the frame is closer to a square shape, and by adopting the upgraded YONEX exclusive frame design square head, the sweet spot is enlarged. The thicker sides of the frame enhance the frame rigidity, which improves the ball exit speed.
