Player Benefits: Control - Stability

This Babolat Pure Strike 97 racquet has one major difference from the classic Pure Strike, namely the size of its headsize: 626 cm². It is smaller in order to give you more control on every shot.
The racquet weighs 310 g and is balanced at 31 cm to give you plenty of stability on all shots. The 16x20 string pattern will optimise the control provided by this frame while giving you plenty of spin on the ball.
The cross-section of the frame is also thinner (21-22-21 mm) than on a classic Pure Strike, offering better sensasions and more control.

This racquet has a leather grip to give you maximum feel.

Type of player:

- Advanced level players looking for a racket offering maximum precision combined with plenty of stability.

Technologies:

Control Frame Technology : unique frame shape to obtain a very dynamic elliptical shape at the throat area and a squared shape on the rest of the frame to offer more control
FSI Power: the innovative string pattern implements grommets in the shape of a diamond in order to enlarge the sweet spot, allow you to gain power and centre the ball easier on your racquet head
NF²-Tech: linen inserts added to the frame and shaft to improve comfort and sound quality on impact with the ball.
SWX Pure Feel: Material used to obtain less vibration for greater comfort
- Genuine leather grip
