Version · 42 optionsAstrox 100 KurenaiChange

The Yonex Astrox 100 ZZ (Kurenai edition) is a top-tier badminton racket, with a very stiff profile in the upper part of the frame for maximum attacking power. It uses Namd graphite, which generates extra power, combined with Nanometric for more explosive shots. The Rotational Generator System distributes weight at the top of the frame, in the T-joint and in the Butt Cap, which gives very powerful smashes. The Aerobox frame and the Solid Feel Core with Black Micro Core absorb vibrations. It is powerful and versatile, but demanding.

How the RR Score was calculated

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.
