Babolat ‘09 Pure Drive GT Tennis Racquet

admin — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 12:16:45 +0000

The latest update to the legendary Babolat Pure Drive, the new Pure Drive GT (Graphite Tungsten) adds a hybrid of braided carbon fibers and tungsten filaments throughout the entire racquet. Tungsten strengthens the frame to reduce torque for greater precision (Babolat claims 26% more precision compared to the previous Pure Drive). Babolat continues to utilize the Cortex vibration filter at the top of the handle. Cortex is used in several of Babolat's players racquets to enhance feel by cancelling only the 2 highest vibration frequencies. Only those frequencies that enhance feel are permitted to pass through the Cortex filter.Babolat has kept the specifications on the new Pure Drive GT are virtually the same as the previous generation Pure Drive Team and Pure Drive Cortex. That is, the Pure Drive GT remains the definitive tweener (between powerful/controlled) frame. 100 sq. in. head, 11.30 ounce strung weight, and 307 swingweight provide an excellent balance of power, control, and maneuverability.The Pure Drive GT will still appeal to a very wide array of players. One of a few racquets that works well at the net, as well as the baseline.Racquet SpecificationsHeadsize:100 sq. in.Length:27.00 in.Weight (strung):11.3 oz.Stiffness (Babolat RDC):72Balance: 12.70 in.
