Babolat Pure Aero 98 Gen.9 Tennis Racket

The Babolat Pure Aero 98 Gen.9 tennis racket is built for aggressive players who take control from the baseline and back their swing on every ball. If you like to hit heavy, shape the ball with topspin, and still demand pinpoint accuracy, this is the Pure Aero tuned for your game.

Babolat’s spin story runs deep, with more than 20 years of development behind the Pure Aero range. The Gen.9 98 pushes that further with a more aerodynamic frame that cuts through the air faster, reducing drag by around 6 percent. That translates to quicker racket head speed, easier access to topspin, and the confidence to accelerate through contact when the rally heats up.

The 98 square inch head size tightens things up for players who want control without giving up aggression. Combined with a 16x20 string pattern, it delivers a more precise response, letting you attack the ball while keeping your targets honest. Flax fibres built into the frame improve feel at impact, giving you cleaner feedback and better touch on full-blooded groundstrokes.

FAQs

Who is the Pure Aero 98 Gen.9 best suited to?

It’s ideal for advanced or high-level intermediate players who generate their own power and want more precision than a standard 100 sq in frame.

How does the smaller head size affect play?

The 98 sq in head gives tighter control and more confidence on aggressive swings, especially when targeting lines or hitting through the court.

Does it still offer plenty of spin?

Yes. The aerodynamic frame and Pure Aero geometry make it easy to generate heavy topspin, even with the more controlled 16x20 string pattern.
