Babolat Pure Strike 18x20 Tennis Racquet
Babolat introduces the 3rd generation of the Pure Strike racquet series. Updating the 2016 version with an all-new red & white 2019 Pure Strike 18x20 racquet. This frame is endorsed on tour by Dominic Thiem.
The newly minted speed machine, features Babolat's new C² Pure Feel Powered by SMAC. Babolat implements a material technology at the 3 & 9 o'clock positions of the frame -- this combined with cortex allows for a nice dampened feel. Babolat continues the use of FSI Power Technology -- an optimized string pattern that was designed with wider spacing within the crosses, providing additional power. Also featured is Babolat's Hybrid Frame construction which gives any player a unique blend of power and control.
The Pure Strike features a dense 18x20 string pattern combined with a 98 square inch head size with a 21/23/21mm tapered beam. The racquet itself with the all-new C² Pure Feel weighs in at a comfortable 11.4 ounce strung weight. Overall, an excellent update from Babolat with the new 2019 Pure Strike 18x20. This frame fits the players that seek out a responsive feel with great control.
