The Yonex Astrox 88S Tour (2nd generation) is an attack-profile badminton racket, at about 83 g (4U), with a head-heavy balance (point 6) and medium-to-high rigidity, similar to the Pro version in balance and feel. The NAMD shaft creates fast flex and return, which maximizes shot power and improves the Rotational Generator System. Weight is distributed between the end of the handle, the top of the frame and the joint, for control and quick transitions between shots, with powerful, sharp-angle smashes.

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.
