The Babolat racket collection for 2015 consists of 4 lines, including the completely new Pure Drive line. See below which line best matches your playing style. The new
Babolat Pure Aero racket line will be released around the US Open of 2015, which will succeed the Aeropro Drive family.
Pure Drive – Power and versatility Babolat's most all-round line offers 'power and versatility'. If you are looking for an easy-to-handle frame that still feels solid and you operate mainly from the baseline, then the updated Pure Drive is recommended. The 2015 version has a different string bed than its predecessor, so the sweet spot of this racket is slightly higher than usual. In 2013, Babolat launched the Pure Drive
Play , the very first 'connected' tennis racket, with which you could measure various data such as the effective hitting zone of the ball. Babolat used this information to optimize the new Pure Drive 2015. Below is the completely new Pure Drive line:

Aero – Power and spin We all know the Aero line from Rafael Nadal. Players who want to dominate from the baseline with a lot of power and spin will find their racket in this line.

- Aeropro Lite: 100 sq/inch, 260 gr, 34.0 balance, 16/19 stringing pattern
Pure Strike – Response and precision Players who look for the ball a little more and take it for the highest bounce point, have a slightly more classic, flat stroke and value control and pure ball feeling, should try a racket from the Pure Strike family. This line is in the range of the Wilson Blade, Head Radical or Prince Tour 98. In overview:
- Pure Strike 18/20: 98 sq/inch, 305 gr, 32.0 balance, 18/20 stringing pattern
