The Pure Strike series models
Pure Strike 97
The Pure Strike 97 is the most demanding model in the series. Its thin frame profile and 16 × 20 string pattern offer maximum precision and a direct ball feel. It is suitable for very experienced players with refined technique and their own hitting power.
Pure Strike 98 18 × 20
The dense 18 × 20 string pattern provides exceptional control and a firm feel. The racket demands clean hitting, but rewards precise shots with high stability and accuracy.
Pure Strike 98 16 × 19
The Pure Strike 98 16 × 19 offers a balanced mix of control, spin, and power. The more open string pattern facilitates ball rotation and makes this model somewhat more accessible than the 18 × 20 variant.
Pure Strike 100
The models with a 100 square-inch head size offer more forgiveness and a larger sweet spot. They combine control with easier handling and additional power.
Variants with 16 × 20 and 16 × 19 string patterns are available. This makes them suitable for versatile club players who seek a controlled racket but do not want to sacrifice comfort.
NF2 Tech and Frame String Interaction Control
Among the most important technologies of the fourth generation is NF2 Tech. Babolat integrates natural flax fibers into selected areas of the frame. These are designed to dampen vibrations and make the feel upon ball contact more comfortable.
The Frame String Interaction Control Technology harmonizes the frame and string pattern. The goal is longer and more controlled ball contact, allowing players to place their shots more precisely.
The technical focus
✓ Improved vibration dampening
✓ More direct and comfortable ball feel
✓ More precise interaction between frame and strings
✓ High control for fast shots
Classic design with new details
Visually, Babolat remains true to the typical white basic design of the Pure Strike series. Red accents provide a sporty contrast and make the new generation immediately recognizable on the court.
Our conclusion
The fourth generation of the Babolat Pure Strike is aimed at players who want to actively accelerate their racket and precisely control the ball. The series offers different models for classic attacking players, technical all-rounders, and aggressive baseline players.
In a direct comparison, the Pure Strike competes with the Wilson Blade V9 and the HEAD Radical, among others. Which racket is best depends on your swing, your contact point, and your desired playing feel.
