About this product
Play Badminton Racket High – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Dar es Salaam.
The Astrox 77 Play is the entry-level member of Yonex-s Astrox family, and the Astrox family exists for one purpose: to put the weight at the front of the racket so the shuttle gets hit harder.
That is the honest physics of a smash. A head-heavy racket carries more mass at the point of contact, so more energy arrives at the shuttle for the same swing. The catch on the flagship Astrox rackets is a stiff shaft, which only loads properly if you can swing fast enough – give one to a club player and it feels dead.
The Play solves that. It keeps the head-heavy balance and the Aero+Box frame, and pairs them with a Hi-Flex shaft that bends and springs back at ordinary club swing speeds. You get the extra weight behind the shuttle without needing the arm of a national player to use it.
The frame is Aero+Box, which is Yonex-s name for a cross-section that is aerodynamic through part of the head and squared off through the rest. The aerodynamic section cuts drag on the way through the swing; the boxed section resists twisting on contact. It is a genuine compromise design rather than marketing, and it is why this frame feels stable on an off-centre hit.
At 4U it weighs 80 to 84 g unstrung, and G5 is the smallest common grip – a combination that suits most players here, where the heat makes a heavy racket feel heavier still by the third game.
