Babolat Pure Drive 2015: an all-rounder!

Power, control and comfort in one racket? It's possible with the new Babolat Pure Drive!

Brand: Babolat Model: Pure Drive (2015) Head size: 100 sq/inch Weight: 300 gr Balance: 32.0 cm Stringing pattern: 16/19 Length: 27 inch RA: 72

Previously jokingly called the 'Copa Mundial' (after Adidas' iconic football boot that is still in the collection) among tennis rackets, the Babolat Pure Drive 2015 has had an excellent update. The well-known specifications have of course remained: the 100 sq/inch blade size, 300 grams, a 32.0 balance point and a 16/19 string pattern. However, there are a number of novelties to this racket besides the coat of paint:

  • Rearrangement of the string bed: the stringing pattern of 16 main strings and 19 cross strings has remained the same, but the string density of the new Babolat Pure Drive 2015 has changed compared to the Babolat Pure Drive 2012. Based on data collected from the PLAY version of the Pure Drive, it turned out that the ideal contact zone (sweet spot) for Pure Drive players is slightly higher than in the middle of the headstock. In this 'new sweet spot' the string density is slightly higher
  • FSI technology: Frame String Interaction, as FSI is called in full, ensures more interaction between racket and string by placing special inserts on the outside of the racket at 3 and 9 o'clock, resulting in a longer ball-string contact moment for more spin and a softer feel. This technology is an addition to the well-known Woofer technology in which the strings do not lie flat in the frame, but over curves, which has already fractionally extended the contact moment with the ball.

Babolat Pure Drive: a fantastic blend of power, control and comfort The above updates make the new Babolat Pure Drive 2015 a fantastic blend of power, control and comfort. The high stiffness (RA value of 72) and the round housing at the shaft provide the power. The Tungsten material used around the heart of the frame ensures that the racket twists less quickly, provides the control and the Active Cortex built-in damper, Woofer - and FSI technology contribute to extra comfort. New in the collection is the Babolat Pure Drive Team with a weight of 285 grams with the same head size, balance and stringing pattern. Here you will find a complete overview of the Babolat Pure Drive racket line . The Babolat Pure Drive is available up to grip 5 in our webshop.
