Astral 9000 is a mid-range 4U (about 84 g) racket in the Apacs Astral range with a near-even balance (288 mm) and a medium-flex shaft. A handy all-round feel for club doubles.
- Near-even balance keeps the head quick through drives and blocks
- Medium flex is forgiving yet still responsive
- Slim 6.4 mm shaft cuts air resistance for faster swings
- Mid-range materials give a less refined feel than pro-level frames
- Specs come from retailer listings, not an independent test
Where to buy
