Astrox 100 Tour NA: Geoffrey's review
Dreaming of the power of an Astrox 100, but find the ZZ too demanding? The Astrox 100 Tour is exactly in between. And in black and green, it looks seriously good.
What you'll feel
It remains a very stiff, head-heavy racket made for attacking: your smashes carry weight, and your clears travel the entire length of the court. But it is a bit more forgiving than the ZZ when your shot isn't perfect, making it playable throughout an entire match, even as fatigue sets in.
Who is it for?
Advanced players with an attacking profile who want to upgrade, or competitors looking for an attacking racket without paying top-tier prices. 4U weight (83g).
My advice
A tension of 11 to 12 kg with a BG80 or an Exbolt 65, and you've got a real smashing machine.
You choose your string, your tension, the color of your overgrip, and even your name on the shaft directly above: I'll prepare it in the workshop and it will ship ready to play.
