The Astrox 2 is an entry-level Astrox made in Taiwan, light and with a Hi-Flex shaft, designed for those moving from the beginner to the intermediate level. It weighs 78 g on average (5U), has a graphite frame with tungsten, a graphite shaft with Nanomesh Neo and the Rotational Generator system, which distributes weight between the tip, the joint and the handle. Yonex recommends 19 to 24 lbs. It is fast on defense and generates power with little effort, but does not have the firmness of the more expensive Astrox models.

How the RR Score was calculated

Specs65%50
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.
