The Pure Drive team exhibits the same levels of both spin and power as the Pure Drive, incorporating this into a lighter, more user-friendly frame. Ideal for those intermediate level competitors, groundstrokes are made to feel crisp at contact with excellent feel and power.
The definitive choice for explosive power, the latest Pure Drive range keeps all of what generations of players love about the iconic racket with Babolat making subtle changes upgrades that bring it a step closer to perfection.
So exactly what makes this Pure Drive more 'explosive'? Babolat have made additions including the HTR System - a new lay-up composition for improved High Torsional Rigidity. This means that on high intensity shots, players can expect better energy transfer leading to increased power. Also new is the addition of SWX Pure Feel - an advanced vibration filtration system designed to improve feel and sound on ball impact.
The cosmetic is updated with a striking double effect featuring the classic Pure Drive blue, as well as a deeper shade of blue. The 'Drive' logo on the throat of the frame is mirrored giving this racket a suitably powerful cosmetic.
