The Babolat Pure Drive 30th Anniversary Tennis Racket!
In the 1990s, tennis was dominated by control focused rackets with small heads and square frames. The Pure Drive was born in 1994, changing the game with a 645cm² head size and an elliptical frame to generate unprecedented power. Four years later, Carlos Moya won his 1st Grand Slam with the now iconic Pure Drive: the first of many Pure Drive victories at the professional and amateur level.
Today, the Pure Drive is celebrating its 30th anniversary. 30 years of success, 30 years of power, 30 years of blue. To celebrate this iconic tennis racket, Babolat has revisited one of the key elements of the Pure Drive. The blue colour has been the hallmark of power, versatility, and modernity for 30 years. Every blue since the first edition in 1994 has been condensed using an innovative painting process to create a unique and randomized blue design on every racket.
The Pure Drive 30th Anniversary is designed for players looking for a powerful, versatile, and manoeuvrable tennis racket. This all-round tennis racket will give you a unique feeling with every winning shot and every victory, just as it has done for the last 30 years.
-
HTR System: The High Torsional Rigidity (HTR) system is a new lay-up composition in the hoop of the racket for increased rigidity to produce explosive winners at will.
-
SWX Pure Feel: New technology featuring extended wrapping of SMAC technology, the cutting-edge vibration filtration system integrated in the lay-up composition, provides an unrivalled feel at ball impact and a unique sound on every shot.
-
FSI Power Technology: Advanced frame-string interaction system with an open 16X19 string pattern and optimized diamond grommets for a larger sweet spot and maximum power for all players.
-
Elliptical Frame: This structure provides optimal resistance and overall rigidity for phenomenal power.
