Babolat Pure Aero Rafa Origin 317g Tennis Racket

This racket offers the excellent playability of the standard Pure Aero, but in a lighter, more user-friendly overall package. Weighing 317 grams, the Pure Aero is ideal for advanced players seeking a fast racket with effortless accuracy on full swings. Like its predecessor, the new Pure Aero 290 features FSI Spin technology. The larger spacing between the cross strings provides better "ball bite," and the large grommet holes allow for increased string movement, resulting in a stronger "snapback effect." The result is a racket that grips the ball better, allowing it to be catapulted with even more spin from the string bed. In this model, Babolat retains the Aeromodular frame, which is crucial for the quick handling of this racket. From the baseline, the Pure Aero 317g not only feels solid upon ball contact but also delivers impressive accuracy on full swings. While it is as stable as the heavier Pure Aero models, the balanced weight of this racket offers remarkable stability for its category. It also has the maneuverability that makes it easier for less advanced players to generate the necessary racket speed for effective pace and spin. At the net, the racket's speed is advantageous during quick exchanges. The fast feel also aids in service returns, with the Pure Aero 317 getting to the ball quickly under pressure. With its user-friendly playability, this tennis racket remains an excellent choice for aspiring players who desire easy access to pace and spin.
