The Babolat Pure Drive (2021) -  Babolat have improved on an already legendary racket.

The Pure Drive range have throughout the years proven to be one of the most popular rackets. With incredible amounts of power, this is a racket that appeals to both tounament-level players, as well as intermediates. 

When we tested the Babolat Pure Drive (2021), we were really impressed with it. One aspect that our testers appreciated was the improved feel and comfortability the had when playing. This really feels like a huge improvement from the previous models.

When we tested this racket, we had a variety of players, ranging from beginners to professional ATP players. We were surprised of how the Babolat Pure Drive (2021) appealed to so many different players. The intermediate players loved the added power as it gave them that extra oomph, that they feel they were lacking. Whereas the professional players felt like they were able to add more weight on the ball, and the stability of the frame really stood out. 

Rackets created for power has a reputation of not being great on the arm, as they can lead to tennis elbow. Babolat have improved massively with this version, and have added SWX Pure Feel technology to help this.

Babolat Pure Drive (2021) Technologies:

SWX PURE FEEL > This vibration filtration system, which distributes the vibrations evenly throughout the racket, so that the vibration does not travel up the arm. This means that the racket will feel a lot more comfortable upon impact, and improve the feel and touch. It also improves the quality of the sound, and gives you the distinctive "Babolat" sound when hitting the ball.

High Torsional Rigidity (HTR) SYSTEM > A new lay-up composition which strengthens the head of the frame. This means that the racket bends less upon impact, and more of the energy goes back into the ball. This leads to increased stability and more explosive power, especially on high-intensity shots. 

Elliptic Frame > The structure of the frame allows for optimal resistance. This means that the frame will be rigid, and thereby transferring the energy into the ball. This will lead to incredible power
