Aerodynamic

The Babolat Pure Aero is one of the most iconic racquets in modern tennis, famous for its spin-friendly design, aerodynamic frame, and powerful feel. Originally introduced in 2003 as the AeroPro Drive, it became synonymous with Rafael Nadal, who played a major role in its evolution and popularity. The spin potential of this frame is almost unmatched and is best suited for aggressive topspin heavy baseline players with whippy swings.
