Astrox 99 Play Green: Geoffrey's review
The Astrox 99 Play is the easiest way to discover the 99 range. It features the style of its big sister and provides power very easily.
What you will feel
It is flexible and head-heavy: the shaft creates a real spring effect, and the weight in the head does the rest. Your clears reach the back of the court and your smashes have weight, even if your technique isn't perfect yet.
For whom?
Beginners and recreational players who love to attack, and players who want an offensive racket that is comfortable on the arm. 4U weight (83 g).
My advice
Keep the tension between 9.5 and 10.5 kg to take full advantage of its flexibility. A BG65 Titanium works very well with it.
You choose your string, your tension, the color of your overgrip, and even your name on the shaft right above: I prepare it in the workshop and it ships ready to play.
