DESCRIPTION:

Babolat adds another chapter to its most control-oriented racquet. Like previous versions of the Pure Strike 98 18×20. this traditional player’s racquet is defined by its dense string pattern and laser-like trajectory. making it great for driving the ball through the court. It also packs a 332 swingweight. which gives it excellent stability against heavy hitters while also rewarding strong players with enough mass-based pop to impose their will. For this update. Babolat adds FSI Control technology. which features tighter string spacing for an even more precise and predictable trajectory. To help with comfort. Babolat puts NF2-Tech (flax fibers) in the shaft while keeping the head free of dampening agents to provide more direct ball feedback. As with previous generations. this frame benefits from Control Frame Technology. which blends square and elliptical cross sections to enhance stability and ball feedback. Ultimately. with this update. Babolat keeps a good thing going. Experienced players looking for a stable racquet with phenomenal control will love this one.
