It quickly becomes apparent that the “K variant” is a completely different racquet in hand - although at first glance (racquet head size, frame profile, shaft length) it doesn't differ from the AURASPEED 90 S. In fact, the new AURASPEED 90 K is significantly more top-heavy, has a stiffer shaft and, at 89 g, is even a touch lighter than the AURASPEED 90 S we previously tested. According to the VICTOR engineers, this was possible, among other things. thanks to the new "Rebound Transition Construction", light "PYROFIL carbon fibers" and tubular "Nano Fortify fibers", which are supposed to generate a higher recoil.

With the new top model AURASPEED 90 K, VICTOR has built a radical racket for top players. Many professionals from Malaysia and Denmark - above all Anders Antonsen, vice world champion in men's singles - chose this racket to prepare for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo.

Our conclusion: Similar to the YONEX ASTROX 99, we can only recommend the VICTOR AURASPEED 90 K to players with a sophisticated striking technique. But in the VICTOR AURASPEED 90 K they find a real top tool for a precise, powerful game.
