Specifications and technology Babolat Pure Aero Roland Garros 2017:
The Babolat Pure Aero sticks to the specs of the regular Pure Aero, so a 100 sq/inch blade, 300 grams (unstrung), a 32.0 balance and a 16/19 string pattern. The Pure Aero is the successor to the Aeropro Drive, but houses a lot of new technology:- The new Aeromodular 2 frame construction ensures even less air resistance and therefore faster swings
- The well-known Babolat Woofer technology (where the strings do not lie flat in the frame but on curves, making it easier to grip the ball in the strings) and the Active Cortex technology (built-in damping system that runs from the shaft to the grip) are now placed in the frame itself and no longer externally. This contributes to reduced air resistance.
- FSI SPIN provides a larger sweet spot by redistributing the string bed and more interaction between frame and string. The effect is more ball rotation due to the extra grip on the ball and therefore more spin
- The new and wider tubings at 6 and 12 o'clock in the racket also contribute to more freedom of movement of the string and therefore more spin and a larger ideal hitting zone and therefore more comfort on off-center hits
