What’s so special about the Babolat Pure Aero racquets?

The Babolat Pure Aero racquet has a unique design for players who carefully combine strength and spin to improve their gameplay. It weighs around 280g, making it one of the most lightweight devices that significantly increase speed. On the other hand, its strung weight is 301g; therefore, the right measure to swing comfortably and accurately. The Aero is a high-performance racquet, especially since it has a 307 swing weight, an upgrade from the previous 324.

The racquet can function effectively on nine out of ten serves, and its extended length comes in handy for each hit to enhance your performance. However, the racquet may have an average performance on groundstrokes but can generally make great volleys and give the best serves.
