YONEX ASTROX NEXTAGE

ASTROX racquets are revered for power, but strength is required to unlock the full potential. Strength is easier to unlock when the shot feeling is comfortable and requires less strain. The brand new ASTROX NEXTAGE is the key to unfiltered power with an addictive hitting feel. The racquet is designed for intermediate players looking for more power with a comfortable hitting feel, while advancing their game to the next level.

This new addition to the ASTROX series is designed with a newly innovated frame that absorbs impact, providing a revolutionary hitting feel with controlled shots. In addition to the Rotational Generator System that enables quick recovery for a continuous stream of powerful attacks, the bottom of the newly innovated frame is lined with Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM). This absorbs impact, making the shot feel softer and resulting in less strain. Wide diameter grommets have also been imbedded on the sides to hold the shuttlecock at impact and allow the player more control over their attacks. Overall, the shape and flexibility of the frame are precisely developed to enhance the speed and power performance of the racquet. The slim Aero Frame shape on top reduces air resistance, adding speed to each shot, and the flexibility of the frame sides result in energy transfer from the user into the shot, providing more power with ease. The overall frame construction creates the addictive feel of this racquet, enticing players to smash harder more frequently.

ASTROX NEXTAGE is designed in a muted colorway consisting of a black base with dark green accents, finished off with a matte finish, creating a luxurious and chic aesthetic. For more details on this one-of-a-kind racquet ask your local retailers and stringers.

INNOVATION

Rotational Generator System

Intricate weight distribution technology designed with the counterbalance theory that allows head-heavy racquets to recover faster between shots.

Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM)

Vibration Dampening Mesh is a stretchy material rolled with graphite to greatly reduce unwanted vibrations.

Wide Diameter Grommets

Control the shuttle-release timing with larger grommets designed for more string movement, extending the shuttle contact time.

E.B. CAP PLUS

The utilization of the E.B. CAP PLUS (Energy Boost Cap Plus) is to increase snapback.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

TECHNOLOGY

Namd

Revolutionary Graphite

A world-first, new dimension graphite material, Namd, greatly improves the adhesion of the graphite fibers and resin by attaching nanomaterial directly to the graphite fiber.In high performance racquets, it is common to combine nanomaterials with resin that connects graphite fibers, but in Namd, nanomaterials are directly adhered to the graphite fibers and resin is greatly increased. This major improvement produces a shaft that flexes and stores energy, delivering explosive force on impact with the shuttle.

AERO + BOX Frame

Combines solid hitting feel and quick swing.

ISOMETRIC

Enlarged Sweet Spot

ISOMETRIC^TMtechnology continues to help the worlds greatest players achieve global success.

Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC^TMdesign increases the sweet spot by 7%*. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC^TMracquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings.

ISOMETRIC^TMdelivers greater control without sacrificing power. ISOMETRIC^TMis a Trademark of Yonex CO., LTD.

Rotational Generator System

Counterbalanced Weight Distribution

By applying the counterbalance theory, weight is distributed throughout the grip end, frame top and the joint for maximum control. The transition to the next shot can be performed smoothly, with rapid succession

Control Support CAP

Sharp Maneuverability

The control support cap provides an 88% wider flat surface compared with an ordinary racquet for easier gripping, fast follow-through and the sharpest maneuverability.
