A Japan-made, very flexible Astrox that succeeds the Astrox 66. The soft Namd shaft and head-heavy balance make smashes and clears come easily at moderate swing speeds, and the maximum tension is deliberately low.
- Very flexible shaft that helps players with modest swing speed
- Japan-made quality with Namd shaft
- Head-heavy balance for easy clears and smashes
- Low 26 lb maximum tension limits crisp feel for strong hitters
- Not widely sold in the UK
- Soft shaft can feel imprecise at speed
Where to buy
