Babolat Aero Team gets a new paint-job for 2021. Special edition Rafa version! Babolat has redesigned and re-engineered the Pure Aero Team, featuring more control plus a better feel -- remaining the gold standard frame for players who use spin as their weapon of choice to dominate the court.

The Pure Aero Team Rafa continues to evolve thanks to Babolat's bold technical partnerships. Babolat has added in Carbonplystabilizer to the Pure Aero Rafa Team which is powered by Chomarat. This new addition to the Pure Aero Rafa Team is a new generation of high-performance carbon fibers for more control and stability on every shot. The Pure Aero Team also features an even better feel thanks to a technological partnership with SMAC, an innovative French aerospace company. For optimal vibration absorption, Babolat intergrated SMACWRAP technology (thin viscoelastic rubber) placed at the 3 & 9 o'clock on the new Pure Aero Team, this ensures players with the best possible feel and comfort.

The Pure Aero Rafa Team is designed for players who seek the ultimate spin racquet. At 100 square inches, 10.7 ounces strung, and a 16x19 string pattern -- the all-new Pure Aero Rafa Team will create massive spin with even more stability and precision. The Team is ligher and easier-to-handle than the standard Pure Aero. Perfect option for the transitioning junior to intermediate player that seeks massive spin with extra maneuverability.


For Optimal String Performance Babolat Recommends:
  • Durability: Babolat RPM Blast
  • Playability: Babolat Xcel
  • Hybrid: Babolat RPM Blast 17 - Xcel 16

If selecting tension "Below Range", please note at checkout within the comments field your desired tension value.

Great racquet
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

Bought for my son for HS tennis. It is a second purchase because he loves it and wanted a seamless transition if his strings break in a match. Great spin and power.

Babolat Pure Aero Rafa Team
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars

So far so good. I am a senior 3.5+ player. I have always played with Babolat, most recently with back to back Pure Aero VS's. I wanted a little lighter for more maneuverability. The Team certainly did that going from the VS at 11.4 oz to Team at 10.7 oz. A little less weight means I have to swing harder to gain power but I am adjusting to that. All in all I think I'm going to like it.
