Yonex Astrox 100 Game - Overview & Performance Highlights
The Yonex Astrox 100 Game (item code AX100G) is designed for players seeking a strong attacking setup with balanced handling. According to Yonex's official site, it features a medium flex shaft.
The racquet is available in both 4U (G5,G6) and 3U (G4,G5,G6) variants, with recommended stringing tensions up to 20-28 lbs (4U) and 21-29 lbs (3U).
Although the official specification page does not explicitly label the balance as head-heavy, independent sources list this model's balance point as leaning toward a stronger head bias—giving it a head-heavy balance feel, suited to attacking play.
Key construction features include a frame made of HM Graphite, Nanomesh NEO, Tungsten and a shaft of HM Graphite/Nanomesh NEO, plus it is 10 mm longer than a standard racquet, enhancing shuttle hold and attacking leverage.
