Babolat adds a sleek grey cosmetic to the Pure Strike 98
Introducing the Pure Strike 98 16x19 Carbon Grey! Like the standard cosmetic version, this racquet is designed for intermediate and advanced players who crave controllable power and great feel. Featuring more spin potential than its 18x20 counterpart, this racquet's more open pattern makes it easier to execute the full range of angles and trajectories. Other specs include a 330 swingweight, which not only keeps the racquet stable against higher levels of pace but also translates into impressive power on full cuts. For this update, Babolat adds FSI Control technology, which features tighter string spacing for an even more precise and predictable trajectory. To help with comfort, Babolat updates this racquet with NF2-Tech (flax fibers) in the shaft while keeping the head free of dampening agents to provide more direct ball feedback. As with previous generations, this frame benefits from Control Frame Technology, which blends square and elliptical cross sections to enhance stability and ball feedback. Ultimately, the Pure Strike 98 16x19 Carbon Grey is ideal for experienced players looking for a stable racquet with controllable power and great feel.
