Thanks!! Been looking for this review for ages. Just wondering what weight are they? Also how are they different from the pro versions?

[@helgajuan8529]

Guys, the cap of them are different. But nice vids.

[@angusli7272]

Thank you for reviewing the budget models of the Astrox88 S & D for those who want the rackets but can't afford to pay the price of the Pro models!

[@gautambose]

The budget versions are the 68 s and d and the 38 s and d this is shown by the fact that they are made in Japan Taiwan and china respectively

[@editcoproject]

also there one version cheaper and made in china...checkout for this link kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKXEg61uf6iWo7s

[@R6ex]

Also, those without the strength and skills of advanced players, will perform better on the GAME models.

[@wilsonkusnadi1392]

Hello im form indonesia , for astrox 88D game about the flex is stif or flex ?? Thankyou so much

[@hyorimhw]

Hello, The Astrox 88D Game is a Medium Flex Racket with a Headheavy Balance.

[@setyaandaru6112]

Suggest should covering the cap too for the racket because game and tour series have a big difference between the cap which the game use eb-cap while tour using eb-cap plus

[@srijithbrothers]

I am planning to buy 88d game; is there any other better racket (any brand) in the same price range? Please suggest me. I play both offensive/defensive style well with good smashes and drops from third line. I am a doubles player, please suggest any better racket than 88d game (same price range) for my style of play! Thanks

[@zabi1185]

hey! any update to this? just bought a 88d game and been wanting to know how it feels like since my racket is getting strung and ill be picking it up tomorrow, thanks.

[@kannekantimanoj431]

@@zabi1185 Hi, I am also planning to buy 88d game racquet, can you please tell how the racquet is looking? are there any issues you faced? thank you

[@dbquek]

Guys, who are you kidding ? If you look at the Yonex website, you will see that the Game and Tour versions of the racket have Game and Tour written on the top of the frame ! Sure, you put some tape on the shaft but you could see on the frame which racket you were playing with. Or did I miss something ? Just to be clear, it doesn't mean your conclusions as to which racket you prefer is not valid but to claim that it was a blind test is a bit disingenuous unless the Canadian version of the Game and Tour rackets do not have Game and Tour written on the frames ?

[@superdaddy1973]

How can it be a blind test if you can see on the frame that it's Game or Tour?

[@StevenYUMO]

Hello! Our testers conduct the blind test with the goal of not looking at the frame.

[@kara6320]

Doing a blind test was so creative! Thank you for this helpful video

[@dbquek]

The not so blind test perhaps.....

[@R6ex]

88S for me, coz not strong enough to handle the swing weight of the 88D. I can't even handle the swing weight of the lighter but head-heavy Astrox LITE 27i.

[@rajanedward]

Can u guys review the new Astrox DG series it would be great 👍

[@pininprestatyn]

Sweet! Just ordered the 88S game. Can’t wait to get on the court!

[@chaidirilham921]

Astrox 88d game vs astrox 77, what its better bro?

[@deekay13]

77

[@AmitKumar-hm4gx]

I am sorry this might be a silly Q, what is the Game level, Tour level and Pro Level and there is a Normal version as well, I have 88S with me but it's the normal one,

[@leohuet5091]

The old one

[@leohuet5091]

There is two generation you have the first one

[@loksanwong4489]

Got the 88D game from you guys a few weeks ago and really like it so far. I've been playing with the original 88D for almost 2 years (mostly doubles) but with the pandemic break I was finding it increasingly hard to handle and just decided to go for the Game as it was a little more affordable. You still feel a bit of the weight in the head but much less than the old version and also more flex than the original 88D. Overall a much more forgiving, faster and easier to handle racket than the 88D but still enough weight in the head that you feel which way the head is going (which I personally like) and generate some decent power too.

[@YumoProShop]

Thank you for your comment

[@aozawa6172]

This is very true.. i feel like 88D old is very hard for me when defending and returning smash.. its like my arm was holded by the racket .. maybe i will buy the 88s pro for my next purchase

[@huiha4650]

thumbs up to the review, we should find the most suitable and not the most expensive rackets. here in malaysia 88d tour and game still unavailable,

[@afr3401]

You can purchase it through sunrise website. For purchase in store you can go to racquet world pertama. I saw they have some of the stock.

[@m.aliffhaiqal]

@@afr3401 r u sure they have the 88d tour/game here in malaysia? From what i know is sunrise currently just sell the 88s tour/game only to our market for the time being.

[@afr3401]

You guy do yonex 99 pro tour game n play whice batter

[@jephaniadarngawn6782]

88d game is the smash power powerful?

[@김우주-m9u]

Is there a big difference between 88s and 88s game?

[@christian3145]

Isn't tour suppose to be better than the game? Doing the blind test is really nice!

[@inhleminh3225]

True! I thought that the games would not be as good as the tours but this video really blew my mind :D

[@dbquek]

You would have to be blind not to see the Game and Tour printed on the top of the frame.....

[@same2799]

the tour version has a stiff shaft so ur gonna need a bit more strength to generate power the game however has a medium flex shaft so its easier to generate power if u don't have a strong arm hence probably why it felt nicer to use the game compared to the tour

[@vijayendranvijay457]

@@dbquek Maybe they didn't look at the frame? Then they wouldn't know.

[@willberj]

Would you guys prefer 88d pro or tour? Im an intermediate player

[@RenalTarigan]

Intermediate player can play easily on any racket, so pick the play version :)

[@willberj]

@@RenalTarigan went with the pro, it is very nice :)
