Why its hot:
The Babolat
Pure Drive Team is a perfect mixture of control and
power. The weight of the frame allows for greater
racket speed from the baseline, and on the serve,
and the stiff frame allows for a firmer impact
point. The 100sq. inch head gives the extra two
inches needed for greater consistency than other
rackets in its class. It's "handle heavy" design
allows for greater head speed and is useful for
generating that extra kick on the serve. Babolat's
woofer technology allows for less tension converted
to the forearm when striking the ball, and gives the
user more feel when hitting.
Why it's
not:
NOT RECOMMENDED
FOR BEGINNING JUNIORS. Because of the stiff frame,
this racket is a difficult one to use if transiting
from a junior 25" or 26" racket. The weight and
"handle heavy" feel can be difficult to get used to,
and can result in lack of consistency. Because it is
5 points head light, players can develop a tendency
to whip their wrist before impact, resulting in
greater spin and sometimes power, but much less
consistency.
