Astrox 100ZZ VA

Yonex Astrox 100ZZ VA Badminton Racket

The Yonex Astrox 100ZZ VA is a head-heavy, extra-stiff badminton racket from the Viktor Axelsen Collection, combining the established performance platform of the Astrox 100ZZ with the collection’s distinctive Grayish Beige finish. It is aimed at intermediate to advanced players who want a responsive attacking racket with a firm, precise feel and the ability to generate powerful, fast shots when their technique is up to the task.

Yonex’s Rotational Generator System distributes weight through the frame, joint and grip to support controlled racket movement through consecutive shots. The frame uses HM Graphite with Namd™, Tungsten, Black Micro Core and NANOMETRIC, while the shaft combines HM Graphite and Namd™. Namd™ is designed to improve shaft snapback, helping the racket respond quickly during demanding attacking exchanges.

The familiar ISOMETRIC™ head shape is designed to increase the effective sweet spot, while the AERO+BOX frame combines aerodynamic handling with a solid hitting feel. A Hyper Slim Shaft, Energy Boost Cap Plus and built-in T-joint are also part of the 100ZZ construction. The racket is 10 mm longer than standard, providing additional reach and leverage while retaining the distinctive playing characteristics of the Astrox 100 series.

With its head-heavy balance and extra-stiff shaft, the Astrox 100ZZ VA is best suited to players with developed timing and swing speed rather than those wanting a softer or more forgiving response. It is a strong option for experienced club and competitive players who favour an attack-focused setup, direct feedback and a racket designed to reward committed technique.
