The Brand

Babolat is a French company that has been around since 1875, when Pierre Babolat created the first strings made of natural gut. In 1994, Babolat expanded beyond strings to become a total racquet sports company whose products are used by professional players in a variety of racquet sports.

The Series

Babolat offers four different racquet series of tennis racquets. The Pure Aero series emphasizes spin. The Pure Strike series emphasizes control. The Pure Drive series emphasizes power. And the Drive series emphasizes cost effectiveness.

Everything in the Pure Drive series of tennis racquets is geared toward the comfortable and effortless production of power. This is reflected in the shapes of the beams, the positioning of the grommets, the movements of the strings, and other details.

The Pure Drive series consists of eight different racquets of varying weights and sizes. The Pure Drive VS and the Pure Drive Tour are for singles players are the advanced and elite levels. The Pure Drive and the Pure Drive Team are all-purpose racquets for adults while the Pure Drive Lite and the Pure Drive Super Light are for juniors. Two other racquets in the series — the Pure Drive 107 and the Pure Drive 110 — are doubles racquets.

Our Description

The Pure Drive is an all-purpose racquet that works equally well for singles and doubles. It is available in two different lengths. The Pure Drive is a standard length (27 inches); the Pure Drive Plus is 27.5 inches long. Most players will choose the standard length. Exceptionally tall players or players with exceptionally strong serves, will usually choose the Pure Drive Plus.

Year after year, the Babolat Pure Drive is one of our top selling tennis racquets. It is also one of our most popular demos in our Try One Before You Buy One program. Its 100 sq in format makes it suitable for both singles and doubles. Relatively head light, the Babolat Pure Drive is popular with defenders and retrievers who patiently keep the ball in play and wait for their opponents to make mistakes. Our experts often recommend the Pure Drive to advanced males, elite females and elite juniors.

Babolat Frame String Interaction Tennis Racquet Technology – Drive Series

FSI is an acronym for Frame String Interaction. In Babolat’s racquet technology universe, FSI is a major issue. In the newest Drive series of tennis racquets, Babolat has shifted the string placement to provide more density where it is needed. They have also tweaked the shapes of the grommets to provide an improved sweet spot that helps on all shots, including off-center hits. The combination of technologies is branded by Babolat as FSI Power.
