Astrox 100 Game VA

Yonex Astrox 100 Game VA Badminton Racket

The Yonex Astrox 100 Game VA is a head-heavy badminton racket from the ASTROX range, developed as part of the Viktor Axelsen Collection. It is designed for intermediate players and doubles specialists who want a combination of power, control and speed, with a medium-flex shaft providing a more accessible feel than the stiffer models in the ASTROX 100 family.

The racket uses a High Modulus Graphite frame with NANOMESH NEO, VOLUME CUT RESIN and Tungsten, while the shaft combines HM Graphite with NANOMESH NEO. The NANOMESH NEO construction is intended to support the racket’s flex and responsiveness, while Tungsten is incorporated into the frame to help create the ASTROX series’ characteristic weight distribution.

Yonex’s Rotational Generator System distributes weight through the racket to help the frame transition smoothly between different shots. The 100 Game VA also features a built-in T-Joint for stability and is 10 mm longer than a standard badminton racket. Its head-heavy balance is suited to players who want additional weight towards the racket head when attacking.

The Astrox 100 Game VA is available in both 4U and 3U weight classes. The 4U version weighs approximately 83 g and accepts G5 and G6 grips, while the 3U version weighs approximately 88 g and is available in G4, G5 and G6. Yonex recommends 20–28 lb for 4U and 21–29 lb for 3U.

Finished in Grayish Beige, the Astrox 100 Game VA combines the performance characteristics of the ASTROX 100 concept with a medium-flex construction aimed at intermediate players. It is a suitable option for players wanting a head-heavy racket for attacking play while retaining a more manageable feel than an extra-stiff racket.
