Quick Badminton Racket Guide

Not in a rush? Check out our detailed racket guide.

Beginners: opt for even-balanced rackets — easier to learn on and versatile across shots.
Intermediate players: consider a slightly head-heavy racket for power, or head-light for speed, depending on your style.
Advanced players: usually have specific preferences — power, speed, or control — matched to their playing style.

Ultralight (5U/6U/7U): easiest to control, quick swing — good for beginners and defensive players.
Standard (4U): balanced feel — good for intermediate players.
Heavy (3U): emphasises power, harder to manoeuvre — preferred by advanced players.

Head-Heavy: emphasises power, ideal for smashing.
Even Balance: a mix of power and speed, good for all-court play.
Head-Light: emphasises speed and quick reflexes, ideal for the front court and doubles.

Beginners: lower end of the range — a larger, more forgiving sweet spot.
Intermediate: mid-range — a good mix of power and control.
Advanced: higher end of the range — precise control, but needs consistent technique.

Flexible: easier for beginners, generates power with less effort but can compromise accuracy.
Medium: balanced flex, suits most intermediate players.
Stiff: preferred by advanced players — precise, but needs good technique to generate power.

Smaller hands: G5 or smaller.
Average hands: G4.
Larger hands: G3.

The Astrox 100 Tour brings the highest level of specifications similar to the Astrox 100 ZZ, but at a lower price due to the racket being produced outside of Japan.

Rotational Generator System : Employing the counterbalance theory, weight is distributed throughout the grip end,fram top and the joint for maximum control. This allows players to easily transition to the next shot during fast rallies.

Namd: Premium Namd Graphite is utilized throughout the frame for increased flex and explosive power.

Energy Boost Cap : Revolutionary cap which maximizes shaft performance. The front allows the shaft to flex while the side arch-shaped curve stabilises the racket face by preventing the shaft from twisting.

Isometric : increases the size of your sweet spot New Grommet Pattern : single pass grommet holes for reduced string stress, maximising performance

Solid Feel Core : reduces vibrations travelling down the shaft for improved comfort AEROBOX Frame : a combination of faster swing speeds and a solid feel

Extra Slim Shafts : designed to slice through the air, generating speedy power

Bult In T-Joint : increases strength between the frame and the shaft eliminating head twist for more control
