Balance determines whether your racket is head heavy, even or head light.
Flexibility ranges from 0 – 100%, the higher the percentage, the chance of generating power in your shot.
Total Weight is the unstrung weight of the racket as measured by Yonex Precision Scan. Heavier rackets generate more power.
Swing Weight is measured by the swinging of the racket at a specific speed. A lighter swing weight can lead to more control.
Performance Swing Weight considers the weight, balance and swing weight to give you an effective estimate of the power behind your racket.

- Full graphite shaft with aluminium head – a balance of power and manoeuvrability that gives players a solid platform to develop their skills.

Performance Overview
The Astrox E13 brings key features from the wider Astrox range into a beginners' racket. A medium head-heavy balance and medium-stiffness shaft help newer players generate power without much effort, while the isometric head keeps off-centre hits playable. It blends traditional qualities with modern technology in a racket that is approachable for beginners.
Who Is It For?
All-round beginners starting their badminton journey, and casual or social players looking for an upgrade from a heavy entry-level racket to help them develop their skills.
