Thank you for the above, I wasn't aware that there were any defects that all.

You are correct is personal preference - from my experience, when you have a head light racket and try to force shots over technique it is less obvious you are damaging your joints with overextension. Compared to a head heavy racket where pain will tell you nearly straight away you are doing it wrong. Increased racket head speed from a racket requires more discipline to maintain (ie timing). It will also inclined to make you lazier on footwork because you can contort your arms in ways you're not supposed to. You can build muscles to compensate for this, but as mentioned imo; its more trouble than its worth. As for issues, its the same for present and previous - Don't have official documentation for the 99 and 'early' batch issues, can you imagine Yonex releasing that? (ninja) Hear it from sellers, obviously you need to know them well before they share this... Past examples would be the AT700, Nanotech 8000X (or whatever that used to be called), FB also had a short stint I think? I ventured onto other brands after those times so I wasn't paying attention to other models, until recently looking at 88D vs 99. Surprisingly 88D is similar (in feel) to the Lining 7000i. Keen to try the 9000d... PS I haven't voted on the deal. (y)

We all have our personal preference and style of play, some players do prefer more head light rackets, so I think it's unfair to say that it's more trouble than it's worth. Do you have any information/links about the defects for the Astrox 99?

Meh, head light rackets, been there done that, more trouble than it's worth. Astorx was good though, however they had a spell of defects for the 99, still giving it a pass. Like you say, got to get back on court first! (zombie)

Good deal

Thanks Heat added (y)
