Yonex Astrox 88D Badminton Racket
Hi Steemit
I bought myself a new racket. I was confused as there is also an 88S model. After reading some reviews I decided to buy the 88D as i like smashing more in Badminton. 88S is better for the net play. And there are 2 different weights, 3U which is 88 Grams, or 4U which is 81 grams.
D stands for Dominate and S stands for skill !!
The new Yonex Astrox 88D, 3U
I have tried a few hits with it, but may need more practice to get used to it
It took me a few months to get used to my previous racket. Let's see how I go with this one
Cost around 190 US dollar including the string and delivery.
@djohan,
Not this one, but I have used Yonex series before! When I was at my university I was a Badminton player! Yonex is one of the best brand we had! It was really amazing, I hope you might get that feeling when you are in a match!
Cheers~
thank you theguruasia, Yonex is most popular brand for badminton, but other brands like Victor also have few good rackets now
Wow, such expensive racket. I am using 10 dollars one:)
thank you emilymichelle, 10 dollars one actually cannot be used except for playing in the backyard
I like to smash to badminton is fun I tried playing tenis before and my firend had old wooden rackets after hitting my leg hard a few times I realized its not the sport for me lol
thank you bitcoinman, Yes i tried tennis before and sometimes it's raining and too hot or too cold, badminton is indoor so the game goes on regardless of weather
I did not know you were a serious badminton player. You must be a good tennis player as well?
thank you floridanow, not good at tennis actually, the racket feels very different too. I play badminton twice or 3 times a week
A good racket @djohan, the price is slightly more expensive than normal. There must be many advantages of yonex racket Astrox 88D.h
thank you amuchtar, sometimes it depends on the preference of each player, but the racket must be the top end to be able to compete. This one suppose to be a smashing racket in doubles
Your welcome
thank you @djohan, for the explanation :)
Wow! You amaze me with your interests and energy! I am not familiar with badminton, but, it seems to be expensive.
thank you freedomshift, yes this racket is at the top range, a little advantage has big impact on the court, so it is worth the price
I am sure that it is worth the price.
I'm pretty decent with this sport. I would challenge you if I could. That's a sweet, light racket.
thank you kevbot, i will try to post some videos when i am playing to compare with other people on steemit, my older racket was extra stiff, this one has less power and more control it seems
LOL you know how many Litecoins you coulda bought with that money :P
I haven't played badminton in so long- I remember it being super fun as a kid though!
thank you hotsauceislethal. Just looked at litecoin graph, it was 24 dollars this time last year. So litecoin is better investment than this racket. lol
Wow wonderful badminton racket.
Thanks @djohan
Have a great day
thank you goldcoin, hopefully as good as the price
I have played badminton afew times using several rackets. Am not sure whether i have ever tried out that particular one But what i know is that Yonex is a good brand that produces good badminton rackets therefore, It must be a good original one.
As for me am into tennis who uses more of tennis rackets for playing.
@djohan its Great to know that you enjoy playing badminton. Its a great sport. Good for physical fittness.
thank you yohan2on, this is pretty new racket, just out for few months, i was curious after looking at the advertising and decided to try it. Tennis is also a good sport but sometimes cannot play when raining
Yes, when it rains it becomes tough to play because most tennis courts are outdoor ones.
