Astrox 88D Pro • 3rd Generation

Back-Court Power. Your Choice of Weight.

The Yonex Astrox 88D Pro pairs a stiff shaft with a head-heavy balance for experienced players who build their game around overhead attacks. Its third-generation design focuses on power from the rear court.

Choose 3U/G5 or 4U/G5. Both options have the same G5 grip size; select the weight that suits your swing and handling preferences.

Attacking Performance

Designed for doubles players who want to apply pressure from the back court.

Two Weight Choices

3U offers more overall mass; 4U offers a lighter setup for quick exchanges.

Made in Japan

Premium Yonex construction with a stiff shaft and 2G-Namd™ FLEX FORCE.

Technologies & Benefits

Scroll to explore the technologies.

2G-Namd™ FLEX FORCE

Shaft graphite designed for quick flex and recovery during repeated attacking shots.

Enhanced Rotational Generator System

Weight distribution through the grip end, joint and frame supports recovery between attacks.

POWER-ASSIST BUMPER

The shaped bumper adds weight at the top of the frame to support power transfer.

Stability Weight Distribution

Additional weight at the frame sides improves stability at impact.

Focused Sweet Spot

The 88D design concentrates its attacking response for back-court play.

Choosing 3U/G5 or 4U/G5

3U / G5 — 85–89 g

Consider 3U if you prefer more racket mass and feel comfortable maintaining swing speed through longer rallies.

4U / G5 — 80–84 g

Consider 4U if you prefer a lighter racket for defensive reactions and frequent changes of direction.

Same grip, different weight: both variants use G5. Weight classes describe approximate unstrung weight; strings and additional grips increase playing weight.
