Description
Babolat Pure Aero 98 (2023)
Spin Precision. Tour-Level Control.
The Babolat Pure Aero 98 (2023) is the most control-oriented racquet in the Pure Aero lineup — designed for advanced players who want to harness explosive spin with pinpoint accuracy. Featuring a smaller 98 sq. in. head and thinner beam, this racquet offers enhanced feel, tighter control, and a more connected response for aggressive baseliners.
Used by ATP pros like Carlos Alcaraz, the Pure Aero 98 combines FSI Spin technology with a tighter 16x20 string pattern for optimal spin without sacrificing directional control.
