Description
Rip through the ball like Rafa with the Babolat Pure Aero Rafa tennis racket in Yellow/Pink/Blue, a special edition racket based on the frame Nadal uses on-court.
If heavy spin is your game, the Pure Aero Rafa is the racket you’ve been waiting for. Developed in collaboration with the man himself, it’s a beast of a frame, with every aspect tweaked to suit those huge dipping forehands that Nadal uses to such devastating effect.First up, the string spacing. Arranged in the familiar spin-focused 16x19 setup, the strings are slightly wider apart in the hitting zone for more bite on the ball, allowing you to generate even more spin.
Next, the balance, which is shifted towards the head, upping the swing weight and giving you access to Nadal levels of power from the baseline – providing you can handle it, of course.
Then there’s the stiffness, which is also amped up, further increasing the power potential and giving more consistent depth to your shots.
This edition is lighter than the Origin, shaving the weight down to 290g unstrung to make the racket easier to manoeuvre, so you don’t need arms like Rafa to take advantage of the unrivalled spin and power that the rest of the specs provide.
