    On side note, how is the smash on astrox 88d?the 4u version. Ofcourse it depends on the player but,still m asking it in comparison of the rackets u previously used.

    Since it's a 4U don't expect it to be great. It is good for its weight category, saying this because I own the N80II>VT10DG> N9II> DUO8XP>N7II=>AX88D(order of smash power generated) which are considerably more powerful as the rest are all 3Us,

    Ofcourse,3u is always better,but i only play doubles and this makes playing with any 3u kinda slow in the defence department.
    Could u suggest any other more powerful 4u? Have u tried vzf2 4u?

    Well N9II and N7II could change your mind about 3U manouverability. Can confirm, much faster than the 4U AX88D.

    Amazon has the freedom sale going on, so given if you have a SBI credit card and are a prime member then you could get 10% discount that would equate the price to Rs 9540. But you have to hurry up as it is the last day of the sale

    I read about that,bro but the problem is that the delivery is 1-2 weeks from today,which is way too long(yes i am a prime user..still :/ )
    Also i know a shop who's ready to sell at around 9800 rs, which i think would be better imho..:)

    The specifications are truly awesome,something i am searching for,but still there aren't many reviews about the product, while astrox 88d is used by people extensively, i would rather spend a hefty sum on something that's been thoroughly reviewed. :)

    It actually slipped from my hand while hitting a smash when playing in a particularly hot hall.

    Yes that was the issue, I didn't change my grips often enough then but I've learnt. I changed it just yesterday!

    I tried my friends Astrox 88D 4U G5, and it felt great but was too stiff for me. Any suggestions for a similar racket with more flex, especially in the Li Ning line? For comparison I tried a LN TC 75i and 70i, both were too light and too stiff.

    Thanks!
