Technology:
AERO + BOX Frame
The unique Yonex badminton racket frame delivers a perfect blend of faster swings and a robust feeling upon contact.
ISOMETRIC Frame Shape
The 3AX88D-Pro has an isometric design for an enhanced sweet spot. The overall frame size is slightly smaller and more compact than its predecessors to concentrate extra power in the sweet spot. It enables the backcourt players to play explosive shots in quick succession.
Rotational Generator System + 2G-NANOMESH NEO
In addition to the counterbalance theory called the Rotational Generator System (for powerful and more rapid attacks), the company has used 2nd generation graphite technology called "2G-NANOMESH NEO" in the shaft. It improves upon the benefits of the Rotational Generator System by enhancing power and delivering a faster snapback.
2G-Namd Flex Force
Did you know the 2024 Yonex Astrox 88D Pro badminton racket includes innovative graphite "2G-NamdTM Flex Force" in the shaft? It works similarly to the 2G- NANOMESH NEO and further advances your domination on the court.
STABILITY WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
Yonex has added weight on frame sides to dominate the game with powerful smashes. It allows you to break down the evolving defense strategies of your opponents and play a more attacking game to win quick points.
Ultra PE Fiber
The core of the racket shaft has lightweight fibers/Ultra PEF to absorb shock and vibrations. It ensures that you have total control over your shots during the game.
Ultra Slim Shaft
This is the thinnest ever shaft (with epoxy resin) to generate power like never before. It will cut down wind resistance to add extra speed to your smashes.
Energy Boost CAP PLUS
Designed to improve the performance and stability of the shaft, the Energy Boost CAP PLUS allows advanced players to play a powerful game without worrying about torsion.
Power Assist Bumper
The special tungsten-infused nylon bumper attached to the top of the racket frame will ensure more weight transfer to the shuttlecock for additional strength.
