The specification of this racquet would suit a front court doubles player.
The Astrox 88 S GAME is still head heavy to help generate enough power in your doubles games. However it is not extremely head heavy and is designed to help you with an advantage at the front and mid court.
The new Astrox 88 D GAME is forged with a new material, the 2G-Nanomesh Neo that can maintain the strength of the material whilst reducing the weight. This provides further flexibility to enhance the Rotational Generator system.
This technology enables the racquet to feel even balance when stationary, but becomes head heavy when you're swinging it.
Designed for an aggressive player. The Yonex Astrox 88 D GAME is very user friendly, yet able to be customised with high tension (up to 28 lbs) especially for intermediate players to take on a more serious game.

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.
