Babolat Pure Aero 98

 Formerly called the Pure Aero VS, the Pure Aero 98 offers big hitters a powerfully precise frame. Compared to the standard Pure Aero, this model features a thinner more flexible frame and a smaller head size providing precision and control with more feel. With the 2023 model, Babolat adds comfort to the frame with the NF² Technology, which uses flax inserts in the handle and upper hoop to soften ball impact. Unique for the Pure Aero Team, Babolat has added SWX Pure Feel Technology at 3 and 9 o'clock that filters harmful vibrations for a purer feel and sound. The FSI Spin technology has gotten a new update by tightening the string spacing. The result is added control while maintaining it's an exceptional ability to generate heavy topspin
