The third generation of the Astrox 99 Pro, released in September 2025, is the most head-heavy Astrox in the current lineup, thanks to the new lighter butt cap and the Power-Assist Bumper. It uses 2G-Namd Flex Force in the frame and shaft, which is stiff, and measures 675 mm. The 4U weighs an average of 83 g and takes 20 to 28 lbs. It is made for players who want a heavy smash from the back of the court, with more shuttle feel in the stringbed than the previous generation.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%55
Approval from players35%65

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
