New Astrox Frame (with Yonex's Rotational Generator System)
The new Astrox frame provides this entry level-intermediate racquet the hybrid feel in terms of balance. With the technology, the racquet feels even balance when you're not swinging, and feels head heavy only when you're swinging.
High Modulus Graphite; High Tension Frame up to 35lbs
Not very often you see Yonex guarantee their rackets up to 35lbs of string tension. Using high modulus graphite in this mid range series, the Yonex Astrox 1DG offers you lightweight yet a very strong and responsive racket frame.
The lightweight (83 grams) yet Head Heavy balance could be the right combination for players seeking light rackets but still wants to deliver strong powerful smashes.
Some Head Heavy rackets could be difficult to use. But the Yonex Astrox 1DG is just nice in terms of Balance Point. Especially with the new rotational generator system (hybrid function) from the Astrox frame, you'll get good amount of control in the racquet. The balance just 'feels nice on hand' for an attacking player who loves to smash a lot whilst having some control as well in the overall 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.
