How Does the Starvie Astrum Eris perform?

Bea Gonazales's is probably the most well-reviewed Starvie of the year.
With the mix of fiberglass and carbon fiber in the surface, you have a versatile, tolerant round-shaped racket that is great all-around around the court.
Reviewers point out that its soft core has high ball out that creates a slight absorption and rebound effect, which is dangerous at the net, but if you "keep calm" then you won't have any problems.

El Chini Consejo

Top 5 Rackets of the year! Versatile racket for players from the beginner to advanced level. Players used to a diamond will notice the lack of weight in the head, but it's a round racket that is very powerful.

Handle is not large. I like the bulge at the bottom of the handle. The strap is not long.

Handle is a bit narrow, so I had to use 2 overgrips. Ours weighs 380g.

Padel Review

I'm disappointed I didn't try this racket sooner. I like it a lot more than the Starvie Meteor. Despite being round, this racket is more for power than control. "Keep Calm" at the net, so as to not through the ball into the glass. The handle is narrow, and the wristband is short.

Fabio Ferro

Easy power, good handling make this a playable racket in the high range. Easy to feel the quality. This is a very pleasant frame that works for a right side player or a left side player who prefers viboras and bandejas to smashes. It gives a very versatile game, above all a tolerant, comfortable racket. Good alternative to the meteor easier to play with.
