The Babolat Pure Drive Team Strung Tennis Racket (285g) is designed for players who want the legendary power and spin of the Pure Drive series in a lighter, more maneuverable frame. At 285 grams unstrung, it provides a perfect blend of stability, control, and ease of use, making it an ideal choice for ambitious juniors moving up to a full-size racquet, intermediate players seeking more maneuverability, and seniors who prefer a lighter weight without compromising performance.
With a 100 sq. in. head size and an open 16×19 string pattern, the Pure Drive Team offers a forgiving sweet spot and excellent spin potential, giving players the confidence to attack from the baseline and dominate rallies with heavy, penetrating shots. The reduced weight enhances racquet head speed, making it easier to generate spin, react quickly at the net, and serve with added precision and kick.
Babolat equips this model with the same advanced technologies found in the heavier Pure Drive frames. FSI Power Technology enhances string spacing for improved power and spin, while SWX Pure Feel delivers vibration dampening and a cleaner, more comfortable feel at impact. These innovations ensure that players enjoy not only explosive performance but also a smooth, arm-friendly hitting experience.
Visually, the Pure Drive Team features the iconic bold blue Pure Drive design, standing out on the court while showcasing its performance-driven identity. Its lightweight construction makes it especially effective for players who want effortless acceleration and improved maneuverability without losing access to the raw power that defines the Pure Drive line.
Whether you’re an intermediate looking to improve your competitive game, a younger player transitioning into adult racquets, or an experienced player wanting a lighter, faster option, the Babolat Pure Drive Team (285g) delivers power, spin, and control in a package that feels natural and easy to swing. This racket keeps you aggressive and confident on every shot, across all playing surfaces.
