Pure Drive 30th Anniversary
14652-b
Babolat's DNA has always been to analyse changes in the game and to provide the best solutions to tennis players' needs in order to buck trends and create new ones. In the 90s, tennis was dominated by control-oriented rackets with small heads and square frames, but Babolat created the Pure Drive in 1994. A tennis racket with a 645cm² headsize and an elliptical section to generate power and change the rules of the game.
Today, the Pure Drive is celebrating its 30th anniversary. 30 years of success, 30 years of power, 30 years of blue. To celebrate this iconic tennis racket, Babolat has revisited one of the key elements of the Pure Drive. The blue colour has been the hallmark of power, versatility and modernity for 30 years.
BENEFITS
POWER
Do you want more power? Then look no further. Whatever your level of play, power is what makes this racquet so iconic. Not only is it widely used on the circuit, its versatility has made it one of the best-selling racquets of all time, synonymous with power for all types of players.
EXPLOSIVE
Would you like a little extra oomph when the going gets tough? Explosivity is the answer. When the intensity goes up a notch, you can rely on your racquet to do exactly what you want it to do: to make a killer shot, even on an off-center hit. We developed a new racquet construction specifically for this purpose: to put a smile on your face and to make your opponent wince.
SENSATIONS
Do you need greater feel? Feel the difference. Yes, feel is important, even with a frame designed for power. Obviously, if you can't control your shots, power is useless. Get ready for a new experience that you'll not only feel, but also hear, with a unique sound at impact.
HTR SYSTEM
The High Torsional Rigidity (HTR) system is a new lay-up composition in the hoop of the racquet for increased rigidity to produce explosive winners at will.
SWX PURE FEEL
New technology featuring extended wrapping of SMAC technology, the cutting-edge vibration filtration system integrated in the lay-up composition, provides an unrivaled feel at ball impact and a unique sound on every shot.
FSI POWER TECHNOLOGY
Advanced frame-string interaction system with an open 16X19 string pattern and optimized diamond grommets for a larger sweet spot and maximum power for all players.
ELLIPTIC FRAME
Elliptical frame structure with optimal resistance and overall rigidity for phenomenal power.
