Performance Highlights

1. High-Performance 12K Carbon The hitting surface is constructed with 12K Carbon Fiber, offering a refined, slightly softer touch than traditional hard carbon. This material provides a massive sweet spot and incredible durability, ensuring that every impact feels precise and controlled.

2. M-EVA Balance Core The M-EVA Balance rubber is a medium-hard core specifically tuned for the 2026 season. It provides a versatile response: yielding enough elasticity for defensive lobs while maintaining the necessary rigidity to deliver heavy, powerful smashes when you transition to the net.

3. Z-Shock & Shock Shield Technology

• Z-Shock: An anti-vibration grip system integrated into the handle to absorb impact shocks before they reach the arm.
• Shock Shield: A technical treatment on the racket surface that further dampens vibrations and adjusts the balance for a smoother hitting sensation.

4. Advanced Aerodynamics (Air Booster) The Air Booster system features grooves on the side of the frame that channel air more efficiently. This reduces wind resistance, allowing for faster swing speeds and greater acceleration on your overheads and technical volleys.

5. Spin Boost Tech The 3D rough finish on the faces utilizes a specialized pattern to maximize ball grip. This allows you to impart extreme rotation on the ball, making your slices and viboras much more difficult for opponents to return.

Player Profile

The Starvie Astrum+ 2026 is designed for the technical Drive or All-Round player who values a balanced, high-end feel. If you are an athlete who likes to control the pace of the rally with precision but wants the aerodynamic technology to finish points with power, the Astrum+ is the ultimate versatile weapon for the 2026 season.
