The latest version of the Babolat Aeropro Drive is from 2013 and will remain unchanged for the 2015 collection. However, a PLAY version of this racket was released in January 2015.

For the 2016 Babolat racket collection, the Aeropro Drive has been succeeded by the brand new Babolat Pure Aero series! Read all about the successor to the Aeropro Drive here.

Compared to its predecessor, the Active Cortex dampener in the new Aeropro Drive provides more feel and comfort. It is easy to generate spin with this racket, which is good for making a lot of angles with your groundstrokes. The typical thing about the Aero series from Babolat is of course the housing of the frame at the heart of the racket. Due to the triangular shape, there is less air resistance when swinging the racket compared to a normal racket, which makes this racket very easy and fast to maneuver. In terms of specs, the Babolat Aeropro Drive is close to the Pure Drive, but this racket definitely gives more control and spin, where the Pure Drive offers power a bit easier. The Aeropro Drive also gives a steady feel at the net.

So if you are looking for a racket for dominant play with a lot of spin from the baseline, but you prefer to stick to a normal string pattern (16/19) for a solid feel and a lot of control, then the Aeropro Drive from Babolat is a good choice. This racket is also available in an extended version, a Team version of 280 grams and a Lite version of 260 grams for the ambitious youth player.
