The Yonex Astrox Nextage is suitable for all levels of play. Mid range intermediate players will find this racquet to be a good addition to their game. Not only it is budget friendly, the specs are designed for mid performance regular players.
A special Vibration Dampening Mesh is wrapped around the inside of the frame to reduce unwanted shock. This not only improves your comfort when hitting, most injuries associated with shock may also be eliminated.
The Astrox Nextage features the Rotational Generator System. This simple technology allows the very same racket to feel like a control racket and a power racket in your game. When stationary, the Astrox feels like a Balanced Racket. When attacking (usually when smashing), the Astrox feels like a Head Heavy racket.

This is a guide for those who are not sure of your stringing tension, based on average figures for men and women. Higher tension gives you more control, lower tension gives you more power. Higher tension makes the string less durable.
