This powerful racket is used by many top international country players and has gained them victory including World Ranked No. 1 Kento Momota.
This is the first racket from Astrox series that has adopted full frame NAMD, which doubles the contact time with the shuttles, then frame regains to its original position faster than any rackets in the world.
Yonex ASTROX 99 racket is also built using with Rotational Generator System.The counter balanced head adapts to each shot, helping you to control the drive and attack the opposition with increased acceleration, steeper angle and power on the smash.
This racket helps you to lead the attack with increased power and control.
- Smash power up 7.1% (The difference between the initial speed and the final speed is minimized in order to be launched strongly)
- Smash angle is 2.3° steeper *Tested by Yonex (Measurements by swing robot)

Special Features |
New Full Frame NAMD
In high performance rackets, it is common to combine nanomaterials with resin that connects graphite fibers, but in Namd, nanomaterials are directly adhered to the graphite fibers and resin is greatly increased. This major improvement produces a shaft that flexes and stores energy, delivering explosive force on impact with the shuttle. |
Nanometric
NANOMETRIC* improves the bonding strength between the carbon fibres enabling us to take racquet shaft construction to another level. By reducing the amount of carbon in the shaft to make it 60%* thinner than a conventional racquet whilst retaining stiffness, YONEX has created a revolutionary lightweight racquet with lightening head speed and control. *NANOMETRIC is the new material which applies the NANOALLOYTM Technology of Toray Industries, Inc. |
Rotational Generator System
|
Energy Boost Cap The new shape allows the shaft to flex, which ensures the maximum effect of “Namd(more flex and faster kick-back graphite material)” and stabilizes the racquet face by preventing the shaft twisting, increasing control |
New Grommet Pattern The single-pass grommet hole construction provides more grommet holes for a more high-performance stringing pattern. |
Isometric |
New Build-in T-Joint |
Super Slim Long Shaft |
Solid Feel Core The built-in solid feel core cuts harmful miscellaneous vibration at impact. Solid feel core is carried in all racquets manufactured in Japan. |
Aero + Box Frame Combines solid hitting feel and quick swing. |
