Babolat gives the Pure Strike 97 a carbon grey paint job! Boasting the thinnest beam and most compact head in the Pure Strike family, this racquet delivers mindless accuracy on full cuts. It also moves extremely fast for its weight, making it great for whipping up spin, hitting shots on the run, or reacting quickly at net. The Pure Strike 97 Carbon Grey is also comfortable, with a plusher feel off-center than the previous generation. Notable features include FSI Control technology, which tightens the string spacing for an even more precise and predictable trajectory. To help with comfort, Babolat adds NF² Tech which uses flax inserts in the shaft to help dampen harsh impact vibrations. Like the previous generation, this frame benefits from Control Frame Technology, which blends square and elliptical cross sections to deliver a stable hitting experience with excellent ball feedback. Ultimately, the Pure Strike 97 Carbon Grey is a great option for experienced players who want a speedy modern player's racquet with surgical targeting and great feel. (And the grey cosmetic is a very nice touch.)
