Yonex Astrox 99Pro (3rd Gen) Badminton Racquet

Rotational Generator System

Quick Benefit:

Delivers continuous and powerful attacks.

Properties:

• The weight is strategically distributed across the grip end, frame top, and joint to generate consistent, powerful shots.

• The Power-Assist Bumper adds mass to the frame top, boosting power transfer to the shuttle while minimizing air resistance.

• The Lightweight End Cap allows for an extremely head-heavy balance, maximizing momentum and power.

Result:

An enhanced Rotational Generator System that enables smooth, seamless transitions between shots for greater control and attack precision.

2G Namd Flex Force

Quick Benefit:

Delivers uncompromised shot power with enhanced shuttle feedback.

Properties:

• Advanced Graphite Composition: Features graphite material engineered for rapid flex and quick snapback, optimizing energy return during impact.

• Carbon Nanotube Reinforcement: Nanotubes tightly bind the graphite layers, minimizing energy loss and improving structural resilience for consistent performance.

Result:

When integrated throughout the racquet, the rapid flex and rebound characteristics allow greater shuttle hold, providing superior feel and maximum power transmission.

Exclusive to PRO and TOUR models.

Lightweight End Cap

Quick Benefit:

Enhanced power through optimized balance distribution.

Properties:

• Redesigned End Cap: Constructed with reduced internal material to significantly decrease overall handle weight.

• Lightweight Construction: The reduced mass in the handle allows for greater maneuverability without compromising structural integrity.

Result:

By shifting the balance point toward the racquet head, this design produces the most head-heavy configuration in the current lineup, enabling powerful, momentum-driven shots with improved shuttle penetration.

Concentrated Sweet Spot for Power

Quick Benefit:

Increased shot power and striking efficiency.

Properties:

• Optimized Frame Geometry: The frame shape has been precisely redesigned to concentrate energy in the sweet spot area.

• Enhanced Energy Focus: This refinement maximizes power transfer at the point of impact for improved shot penetration.

Result:

Engineered to meet the demands of heavy smashers, the concentrated sweet spot delivers greater power output and consistent performance during aggressive play.

Shot Information Connector

Quick Benefit:

Enhanced shot feedback and precision control.

Properties:

• Optimized Weight Distribution: Mass is concentrated in the racquet head by reducing weight in the shaft and end cap, increasing shaft flex and improving response.

• Anti-Torsion Shaft: Constructed with high-rigidity graphite to minimize torque, maintaining a stable racquet face during impact for superior directional accuracy.

Result:

Delivers increased shot information and confidence by extending shuttle contact time with the strings, allowing precise feedback and efficient energy transfer without performance loss.
