Babolat Pure Aero
Own Your Spin
Made popular by Rafael Nadal, the Babolat Pure Aero is one of the game's most legendary racquets. This 2023 generation is updated with flax inserts in the handle and upper hoop. You read that correctly: flax. It's used here as a sustainable way to help soften ball impact. This update also offers slightly tighter string spacing with Babolat's signature FSI Spin technology, allowing for more control when maximizing both speed and spin.
Our Review
"The 2023 Pure Aero remains true to its heritage with plenty of spin potential and a speedy feel. I felt like I had more control and precision with this update thanks to the slightly denser string spacing, which allowed me to swing aggressively on every shot without fears of overhitting." - Brittany, TW Playtester
"The [Pure Aero 98] offered the control a player like me needs with the slightly smaller head, 16x20 string pattern, and slightly thinner beam. I felt like this racquet was super versatile in my hands, and I loved how it swung smoothly and still provided nice mass behind the ball." - Michelle, TW Playtester
"Every time I had the [Pure Aero 98] in my hand, I felt very confident. I loved it on serve; came through nice and quickly. Great power, good spin, good control. I was getting my targets even when I was going big." - Chris, TW Playtester
