Babolat French Open Pure Drive 260 is based on the benchmark Pure Drive GT in a lighter more manoeuvrable frame with the Roland Garros livery.
GT (Graphite Tungsten) Technology: Tungsten fibres are combined with graphite at strategic parts of the racket to improve stability and control and feel.
In the Pure Drive Range, there is a higher concentration of Tungsten in the head of the racket to reduce torque and improve precision.
The Cortex System: Thanks to a new type of construction and a CDS (Cortex Damping System) interface, the latest edition of our active Cortex technology ensures the perfect transmission of information to the hand so players can get an incomparable feel for the ball, with greater power and control on each hit.
The Cortex system still filters out harmful vibrations, the Tungsten content adds to the feel.
