ISOMETRIC
Enlarged Sweet Spot
ISOMETRIC technology continues to help the worldss greatest players achieve global success. Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC design increases the sweet spot by 7%*. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings. It delivers greater control without sacrificing power.
STABILITY WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
The added weight distribution on the sides of the frame enhances stability during the swing, resulting in maximized smash power. And allowing for the effective breakdown of defenses during back-court attacks.
2G-Namd Flex Force
ASTROX 88 SERIES TECHNOLOGIES

The innovative graphite “2G-NamdTM Flex Force” used in the shaft, characterized by its quick flex and snapback, maximizes shot power and advances the performance of the Rotational Generator System.
