Yonex Astrox 77 Tour Badminton Racket - High Orange

• Nanomesh Neo: Ensures a stronger more flexible frame, while increased shaft flex creates maximum power.

• Isometric™: Square shaped head increases the size of your sweet spot by optimising the intersection of the main and cross strings.

• Rotational Generator System: 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 rapid succession.

• Energy Boost Cap: Uniquely shaped cap which maximizes shaft performance. The front allows the shaft to flex, while the sides arch-shaped curve stabilizes the racket face by preventing the shaft from twisting.

• Super Slim Shaft: The slimmest racket ever produced by YONEX vastly reduces air resistance whilst providing maximum feel.

• Light feel Carbon Neo: Combining gum particles with carbon fibre generates a light feel and flexibility at impact.

Badminton Rackets are labelled with two parts that indicate their size:

• Weight (U number): tells you how heavy the racket is.

• Grip Size (G number): tells you how thick the handle is.

The grip size will come immediately after the weight code. For example, in 4U5: 4U = racket weight & 5 = Grip Size (circumference).

Racket Weights

Choosing the right racket weight makes a big difference to how you play. Here is a simple breakdown to help you pick the right fit.

• 3F (60-64g): Super light, fastest handling - great for players wanting maximum manoeuvrability.

• 2F (65-69g): Ultra-light, quick reactions - suits defensive or control-focused play.

• 5U (75-79g): Very Light, easy manoeuvring - great for defensive or all-round styles.

• 4U (80-84g): Light and quick - Ideal for doubles and fast rallies.

• 3U (85-89g): Balanced weight - all-round styles and the most popular option traditionally.

Grip Sizes

Badminton racket grips should be big enough so that when holding the handle correctly (like shaking someone's hand), the tip of your ring finger shouldn't touch your palm.

• G4 - 86mm circumferential grip size.

• G5 - 83mm circumferential grip size.

• G6 - 80mm circumferential grip size.

If you are unsure of your racket grip size, you can always opt for the smaller option and make it bigger with the addition of an overgrip.

Please note: racket weights and grip sizes can vary slightly between brands.
