How to String this Racquet

There is no point in buying an identical pair of tournament racquets unless you are 100% certain that the racquets will be strung exactly the same. Most stringers can’t do this. They will say they can. They may believe they can. But the truth is they probably can’t. We, on the other hand, can. Our stringers follow strict processes in order to ensure that everybody is doing things exactly the same way. We also record the racquets we string and post the videos on our YouTube channel so that our customers can see what we did.

Cortex Pure Feel Powered by SMAC has taken Babolat’s signature anti-vibration technology to the next level. SMAC is an innovative French aerospace company that specializes in vibration analysis and reduction. If you have flown in a modern airliner, you have benefited from the same anti-vibration expertise that SMAC has applied to Babolat’s premium tennis racquets. Most recently, Babolat has incorporated SMACWRAP® technology to develop Cortex Pure Feel. This vibration dampening technology is placed in the head of the racquet to enhance feel and comfort.



FSI Power

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.



GT Technology

Babolat’s GT Technology combines high density carbon fibers, giving the racquet head optimum strength which translates to greater power and increased control on any shots hit with maximum power.



Woofer System

Babolat Woofer Tennis Racquet Technology

Babolat’s Woofer System Technology increases the ball’s dwell time on the string bed. More dwell time means more opportunities to manipulate the ball with either spin and/or energy. As a result players who have spin and/or power have more opportunities to use that spin and/or power.
