YONEXAstrox Lite 21i Graphite Strung Badminton Racket with Full Racket Cover (Black) | for Intermediate Players | 77 Grams | Maximum String Tension - 30lbs

I owned my first Yonex badminton racket in 1992--a Carbonex 8. This Astrox Lite model has a more squared head that the perfectly oblong head of the Carbonex. In some ways, it helps the head slice through the air much smoother and grants great speed and power on the down stroke, especially during a smash. I live the coloration and how sturdy it felt in my hand. It is a gift for my son who has picked up badminton this summer while visiting his cousins. It worked well--judging for the price, this must be an entry-level model. Regardless, it works well for a new hobbyist and will stay as a family heirloom, hopefully, for a long time.

I’ve used this racket for a couple months and I love how lightweight it is. My wrists are weak so I was able to play comfortably using this racket, It’s definitely beginner friendly and affordable.

The racket is light in weight. And I like its string strength and its durability. I purchased one earlier this year. I played a couple of times a week and it had lasted more than 7 months, with the original string, until i clashed it with another player's racket. so i bought it again!

The media could not be loaded. Satisfied with this product... good product for beginners and average players... worth for money

Purchased the first one in February, it snapped in half after a couple months use. Outside the return window, so couldn't get a refund. Purchased a second one, the strings broke within a day. Luckily I'm able to return the second one.

Good for intermediate level players

Light and well balanced racquet for beginners.

The product is great
