The Pure Strike racket has been crafted for a perfect balance of power and precision, using feedback from thousands of players worldwide, including professionals like Dominic Thiem. Symbolising the modern tennis player and having amassed a huge fan following with his clinical style of play, fans of Thiem will not want to miss out on the Pure Strike. The latest 4th generation has improved feel and power for clean strikes and crisp shots from all areas of the court. Babolat introduces FSI Control technology, featuring closer string spacing for enhanced precision and predictability.
The word from Babolat insiders is that Theim is really committed to breaking into the Nadal/ Federer/ Djokovic dominance of the majors. Taking an active part in the new design is all part of a determination to achieve that. Team Babolat Pro players may play with a customised or different model than the one depicted.
Babolat Pure Strike Rackets Range
The Babolat Pure Strike tennis rackets have been designed for players who prioritise control and precision in their game. Pure Strike rackets typically feature a midsized head, with a smaller head size, this creates a sweeter spot that's not overly large, allowing for more precise shot placement. Despite the focus on control, Babolat incorporates modern materials in the Pure Strike's construction. These materials can help transfer energy from your swing more efficiently into the ball, generating decent power on your shots. The Pure Strike range indeed aims to achieve the holy grail of rackets, i.e. allowing power, control, spin, and precision. We think that by having a slightly thinner beam, the Strike range allows for a more all round game, rather than just bashing away from the back of the court, so suits a wider variety of players.
