Product Overview
The Babolat Pure Aero 98 GEN9 2026 carries over the best technologies of its predecessor with a more aerodynamic frame geometry. This model continues to be geared toward all court players and baseline hitters seeking a stability and spot-on control. A denser 16x20 string pattern offers added string durability for frequent string breakers. With a slightly thinner beam than the standard Pure Aero this model offers added flex for optimal control.
With the heftiest swing weight of the AERO lineup, this model is the ultimate in stability and return-power for top level players and / or those who prefer a weighty feel.
NEW geometry of the shaft reduces wind drag, for easier generation of spin and ball pace
Carries forward...NF2 Tech, a dampening technology using flax fibers in strategic locations to provide a softer, more arm-friendly feel
Carries forward...FSI Spin Technology which combines Babolat's Woofer system with strategically placed Spin Grommets for increased dwell time and string movement, generating greater spin and a more responsive feel
