YONEX ASTROX NEXTAGE Badminton Racket
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 colourway consisting of a black base with dark green accents, finished off with a matte finish, creating a luxurious and chic aesthetic.

YONEX Co. Ltc. A major racket sporting goods global brand, that was founded originally in Japan in 1946 by Minoru Yoneyama. By 1961, the first Yoneyama-branded racquet was introduced, and within another two years an export company was created for the worldwide distribution. After the company began to make aluminium badminton racquets in 1969, it found that the same technology could be applied to the tennis racket which the company introduced in 1971. The company began to experiment with graphite shafts for both types of rackets and found that these would also be useful for golf clubs.
Yonex has become the dominant corporate player in badminton. Yonex sponsors the All England Open Badminton Championships and is a partner of the Badminton World Federation which organizes the World Championships.[4] Upwards of 80% of competitive players use their racquets, as it is the preferred choice amongst professionals.[5] Yonex is significant in the tennis and golf industries as well and is a major sponsor of professional athletes in all three sports.[6]
With headquarters in Tokyo, Yonex continues to be driven to produce the most technologically advanced sports equipment to enable players, both amateur and professional, to play their sport at a higher level.
