Created with South Korean star & a former Olympic Champion, Lee Yong Dae, the Yonex Astrox 88 D badminton racket is best suited to the dominant back-court player. The Astrox 88 Dominate provides whipping power, as well as steep angled & devastating smashes & has been made using unique Namd material to produce more flex with a faster snapback. Plus, there is Energy Boost Cap technology to ensure the maximum effect of Namd & increased control. Unmatched power is delivered by a 10mm longer shaft & the use of Rotational Generator System technology results in great weight distribution & a smooth transition to the next shot without losing the force & control of the stroke. Also, the 88 D boasts Super Slim Long Shaft technology to significantly reduce air resistance & to increase the stability of the shuttle on the string bed & through the air, it features New Built-in T-Joint. An included full-length cover protects the racket when not in use.
