Despite being a half-inch longer than its standard length brother, the Control Plus' stationary weight, stiffness level and head size remain essentially the same. The biggest difference is a slightly heavier swing weight (inertia). This lends a heavier feel to go with increased reach/leverage and a slightly higher power level. The Pure Control Plus is ideal for 5.0-7.0 level players, who possess solid strokes and are accustomed to a racquet with good heft and a head-light balance. Possesses more reach and power than your average 12 ounce player's racquet. Includes Babolat's Woofer System grommet technology (see Technologies icon in the right hand column).
