Great review, so much detail! Also love the shots you took, look really good (and I understand how painstaking and time consuming it takes 😂)
Hi your smashing secrets book has helped me a lot to improve my game. Thank you very very much
Swift Badminton School thanks a lot bro 💥💯
Which racket is the best one and the light. Am looking for one.😐
@@KenKarsaputra are head rackets more stronger in durability than lighter rackets?

Make a video on astrox 88D vs astrox 99
12:20 that backhand is just sweeeeetttt👌
Hey Ken, ken you please make a comparison review between the 88D and the 99 please. Your comparison video are bomb💣💣💣💣
i think this is not a revolutional racket like duora 10 and z force 2 were... yonex already made the best rackets than they can make, the rest is marketing. li-ning is becoming better and better, my favourite single racket is the airstream n99 and i think the airstream system is well more effective than the GRS from yonex
Airstream make it feel less punchy
lung tang is a busy store and they dont reply on inquiries
oh boy it was
Did u put on lipstick?
no i didn't XD it’s vaseline
I so thought that too! lols, i was like why does ken have lipstick on haha xD
Yes you did bruv it is so obvious
@@hotchillisauce5636 he just clearly said it was a vaseline
@@hotchillisauce5636 What were you guys looking at his lips for???
You suspect! 😂
Make sense. That’s why Kento Momota used Astrox 99 for control in single and also want more power.
IP players' rackets may vary from retail ones
good video :)
thank you!
Thanks for the nice review. :) I wish for a comparison video between brands, say the Victor thruster F vs 88D or 99D. Thanks.
Are you going to do the "steep attack!" challenge on video?
Really good review. Keep up the good work! You also mentioned something about hybrid strings. Think it'd be a really cool video if you could compare and review the strings that you've used over the years? Give us idea of what you look for in strings, like you do with racquets and shoes.
yonex astrox 77 vs 99 PLSSSS
Quality of your videos have really been stepping up recently.
Hey guys, for playing both doubles and singles which one would you buy? Astrox 99, 88D, 88S, 77?
88D i think. Its good at both.
@@Han9509 Thanks
I already bought mine!!!
What I can say that it s the best around racket it has all of this it has power,control ,speed,handling,consistency,sweet spot,user friendliness
You probably don’t like the colour but orange is my favourite colour it is a singles racket which is good for me cause I don’t like playing doubles I like both ambassadors bit this is a very expensive racket and it sounds so good my friends always compliments the sounds of my shots and my couch.
I am mad at him but it’s his opinion to review this racket so am not mad. This is good with the new aerus 3 another brand new product from yonex am waiting for mine.
Nice song its mu favourite from DJ Quads
How about a review of worthwhile racquets costing under £50?
If you like balanced racquets I recommend the Oliver titanium 3

I'll have a look.
Current favourites are

Amazing review ! Keep it up !
Hope you’ll be also doing more review on other different racquet brand in the future too, especially Victor.
Hello
Great review
First comment Bro
do Dive Challenge
If you could have one racket, would it be the Astrox 99 or the Z Force 2? Any more comparison comments between these two rackets would be appreciated as I'm looking to upgrade my Voltric 80 to one of these :)
I want to know too! I've heard that the Astrox 99 is meant to be the successor of the Z Force 2.
I’ve both, the Voltric has a solid feel, the smash can be very powerful...ax99 takes time and the shuttle hold makes the feeling softer but there’s a lot of power in it too
I am using the 102EX also. It is the best option for a person like me who sweats a lot on my palm. I have been trying various grips and this is one of the best I have tried so far. It grips very well and it is not slippery and it is better than I have to change the towel grip. 😁 Btw. Thank you ken for your review. You have saved me from buying this. I play doubles more than single😁
Try the Wilson pro overgrip white. I'd say it's more superior to the yonex grips
@@wijardwong Thank you bro. Will try it. Which type do you recommend for me?? I see there are some types of it. Will it be the pro soft with absorbent type on the packaging or else? Thank you Bro
@@ericsuryajaya_dds the simple pro overgrip is enough I'd say. I don't have enough budget to try their more expensive models. The pro overgrip is most similar to the yonex you use, but it's better from my point of view. I have super sweaty hands and this grip lasts the longest out of all of them I've tried.

@@wijardwong I will do it bro. Thank you for your info. 😁😁😁
Filipus Eric Suryajaya I get really sweaty palms too. I always used the supergrap but I’ve recently been using the mesh grap and it allows my grips to dry after playing and not get too slippery when playing for a long time. The breathability of it truly helps keep it dry!
Please makes review of yonex z force 2 Lin Dan edition
Yes please
I like hybrid stringing too. Currently, use BG65 and BG66 Force combination. I feel that it has solid durability combined with good repulsion power.
I want to ask you ken , what string do you use for yonex astrox 88D?? 👀👀👇
I just realize you have a different string color in one racquet.. How can it be? ... And as usual, this is a good review.. I'm always waiting for your updates 😉
Saraswati Prima he explained it in the end of vid
Yo can't you like make a portion of your video where your like playing with the racket? Like back in your old videos where there's like a huge part of your video where it's juts you and your partner playing.
Yeah and really liked it
Ohh you use 66 ultimax and 80 power??
ZF2 Vs Li Ning 3D caliber 900C? Ultimate comparison‼️
yess !! i still cant decide which one to get between the two
Im really shocked at lung tang as in phillipines our astrox 99 price range for the genuine is 15, 000 which is really expensive i really recommend lung tang as they sell the astrox 99 at only 8,000 phillipine pesos which is really low
How much was shipping and taxes when bought from Lung Tang? Fellow Filipino here 👋
I've been waiting for this review for ages.
That was a really good review ✌
Will be waiting for your grip review😃😃😃
will you do a top 10 racket at the end of the year?
Hi bro, very good video once again ! What do you think about playing this racket in mixed double ? Better than 88D ?
I am wondering about this too
I've read some reviews and some says this one is more sluggish than 88d and 3u 99 models has more head weight than 3u 88d. If you are an advanced level in doubles then you might opt for the 4u version. Some says if you like fast rackets then this is not for you and might want to stick to duora.
But who knows you might have the strongest arms and you might able to tame it at doubles.
Edward Brian Reyes that‘s surely right for men double but i guess that the 4U version isnt a realy good choice in mixed no ?
I am a high school student who has been playing badminton for 5 years. I play both doubles and fast. I usually do cross-movements. But I have a weak Smash. Which do you recommend, Astrox88s or Astrox99?
고승우 id say go for astrox 88S. You seem to be fast and do cross movements. I think u may be a front court player so go with the 88S:)
Can you compare Astrox 88D and 99?
I wanted to bought one of these two. Thanks
Is the soft felling because of the model of the string just saying
Another great review by the legendary Ken, wish i could've watched earlier but i was on tournament, keep it up Ken! ;)
Your reviews are worth million dollars. Thank You.
Plz do a video on hybrid string.
For playing plastic Shuttlecock which is the best string and tension ! ?
But ken i dont understand because the voltric z force 2 in lung tang is the most expensive racket so far and im shocked why. Because look astrox 99 is more latest so it should be more expensive than the zf2
It's the market rate where you are from.
Where I am from Astorx 99 is higher in cost.
will continue playn with my Duora10, thanks for review 👌
First
Same as musclepower 99?
Muscle Power 99 is better.

I disagree that you need technique to generate more power with the Astrox 99. I bought it in fact 'cuz I was getting older and my power was going down. With the Astrox 99, my shots got stronger, deeper, faster, compared with my older Yonex rackets. The Astrox 99 give you power with less effort -- whether you have great technique or not, compared to other rackets. At the same time, its control is superb. Tai Tzu Ying shots are within your grasp with the Astox 99.
My favorite racket is the Arcsaber FB 3U.it is heavier and hits a lot harder then a 5U or any other one.
People who can spend $200+ can purchase but there are plenty other cool and better options available to us
Thank you for your unbiased review, Ken!
At the beginning, I was afraid that you will go praise the racket, just because it's the latest one.
It is a good racket sure. But if you already have 88D, I don't think the benefit will be significant, that's my first impression. I don't actually own one, so it's really helpful when you highlight the pros and cons of this racket compared with other Astrox series.
do you knoww anywhere I can pick one up ?
The quality gets better and better
Ayy yo did you still use the astrox 99?
@Poison Cobra
Is the 99 more powerful than the 77?
I can tell you from personal experience. Yes it is. Its just not friendly towards weaker backhands.
Great review, also your playing form has improved over the years. Your drop shot is less readable now. Keep up the good work
Could you please compare the Astrox 77, 88S, 88D, and 99? Which of these 4 iterations is the best overall?
mon morales Personal preference/what you play more 77 is good for ppl slightly less advanced 88D is good for doubles or singles 88S more doubles and 99 more for singles since repulsion time is slightly longer
mon morales Best way to decide would be to try them all out before buying
Why do u mix string? does it feel good?
What is the newsletter @15:32?
Hi Ken, I am looking to buy an Astrox 99, I’ve been on the lt328 website and the price is fantastic!
I am just wondering if there is a import tax you have to pay, and since you have had deliveries from them, roughly what that import tax would be?
I get you have thousands of comments to sift through, but I’d really appreciate it if you replied.
Keep the videos coming.
Have you used the Nanoflare 800 yet? It’s the first headlight racket I’ve really enjoyed using, it’s worth giving a go.
Cheers
is it better than z force 2?
My savings in a big problem
Bought this for 250 bucks 😅😂
Bro how is the smash power?
Guys can you help me decide which one should i buy the arcsaber10(the white one) or the astrox99 (i already own the vzf2)😊
Ultimate astrox showdown
Help me, i'm pretty confused. Yonex puts 3u mark on a racket. On their website it's 85-89 grams. But actual weight of my 3u rackets with factory strings are 91-94 grams. Is this normal!?
For this racket we know they sold another budget with almost same specs like astrox 99 , astrox69, astrox 39.
So how did u feel the difference between them? I know u got many astrox series and if u have any like 99,69,39,88d,68d,38d can u said the difference. Because my budget at 68d only🥺
I excluded the S series because it was different with racket at above. Short 5mm and the head bal.
Thanks in advance 🙏
Is the racket light or heavy the yonex- Astrox 99 badminton racket (4UG4) pls reply cuz I want to buy one good video
My fav racket astrox 88s.. wondering hw 99 will fare
I want to buy a astrox series racket which is better to buy 77,88d,99 please reply
I wish I could have that racket. I only have Wish and now it's broken
I didn't find the grip video on your channel. Why use a thin grip? Would a thick grip affect the balance of the racket?
Zf2 vs 99 which one is more difficult to handle plz?
Z68TX with Z62F no wonder it's soft hahaha
Astrox 22 and 55 please.
Plz do the grip video asap
4U or 3U
You wearing makeup man? The lighting makes it look like that.
Should i get the astrox 99 or the 77? Is there really a big difference? Im just trying to choose because of the price.
Man u r back I was waiting for these eagerly
Are u half Indonesian? Cz ur snapchat name kenkarsaputra, we know saputra is name of Indonesia hmm
Finally heree i have been waiting, great video!
My friend was going to buy the astrox 99 but the retailer said that it was just too expensive for a racket. He told him to get the duora 10 (2017) instead and he did.
They shown the kick point for 88s and 88d..wat about 99 kick point ?
Loved it dude
you're the best Ken love you videos
I was curious the review since i will be soon gonna get this from a half discount of the orginal. Orginally it was suppose to be Asterox 77 with Yellow and cosmic Blue sadly it was sketchy.
Hi ken which string did you use for your astrox 99
What's the recommended string tension for this racket?
I think the max recommended tension was 28lbs
@@Krossfyre 3 u 29lbs max
4u 28 lbs max
I play both doubles and singles, would the Astrox 99 be better or the 88s be better? Because in the video you said the 99 might be a bit sluggish, but the 88s has less power. Also, which one has more control? Cus both are said to have great control....thx!
Do you string 30 lbs on both cross and mains or are you using 28 on main and 30 on cross? I am planning of getting a z force 2 with 25 lbs(BG80) of tension, it’d be great if you can tell me some tips
bringback your old review videos !!!!!!
Do you know if there is aerobite strings with colors red and orange
Could you please review RSL rackets? They are made in England and their top rackets are way cheaper than Yonex's. England-made rackets must also be good.
88d or 99 ?
Binging poison cobra reviews
Review number 1
Hi, may I get yr advice if I should change to use ax99 since I am using D10, thx
What strings pliss and how many pulls
I’m planning on getting a new racket. In your opinion, for singles which racket is better in your opinion; z force 2, duora z force or astrox 88D
oops. should hv waited for ur review b4 buying my ax99...
Rotational generator system ...... Man is this a badminton racket or a synchronous machine 😂😂😂😂😁
Hi Poison Cobra, recently my 88s has a clicking sound at the cone/handle. Is it still safe to use? Will the racket break at the cone/handle?
Very good review as usual but you should also make reviews on mid range rackets man as most of us can't buy that much expensive racket ..... Hope u will make new reviews soon
you should probably do a makeup tutorial too .no offense
