Rotational Generator System

By applying counterbalance theory, weight is distributed throughout the grip end, frame top and the joint for maximum control. The transition to the next shot can be performed smoothly with a rapid succession. Available in the Astrox Series Racket.

Rotational Generator System Smash Angle

The weight distribution enable the player to generate 2.3° Steeper Smash Angle.

 
 
Namd

A new dimension graphite, NAMD, is created by attaching nano material directly to the graphite fibre to produce a greatly improved adhesion of the graphite fibre and resin.

This major improvement produces a shaft that flexes and stores energy, delivering explosive force on impact with the shuttlecock.

On high speed video smash comparision, the racket with NAMD shaft makes a longer stroke compare to normal shaft. The result is shuttlecock speed is increased by 7.1%.
