Babolat Pure Aero Team Gen.9 Tennis Racket
The Babolat Pure Aero Team Gen9 is a performance tennis racket built for baseline players who want heavy spin and depth from the back of the court. It suits intermediate to advanced players who generate their own racquet head speed and play competitive singles or doubles on hard court or clay. Available in store and online NZ wide, it is a strong option for players looking to lift their spin game without moving to a heavier tour frame.
If you like long, sweeping groundstrokes and working opponents corner to corner, this racket is designed for that style.
Spin That Translates in Match Play
The Pure Aero Team Gen9 features a more aerodynamic frame to help the racket accelerate faster just before contact. In practical terms, that means easier racquet head speed on forehands and backhands, which converts into higher spin rates and deeper ball flight.
The open string pattern supports both spin and depth. You get better bite on the ball, which is especially useful on hard courts where heavy topspin helps control length and push opponents back behind the baseline.
Feel You Can Trust
Flax fibres are integrated into the frame to improve feel at impact. That added feedback helps when you are absorbing pace or redirecting the ball down the line.
For NZ players who compete regularly, this balance of spin and feel makes a difference in long matches. You can stay aggressive from the baseline while still having touch for short balls and angles.
Who It Suits
The Team version is lighter and more manageable than heavier Pure Aero models. It suits strong club players, juniors transitioning to full size frames, and adults who want performance without the weight of a tour level racket.
If you generate good swing speed and build points from the back court, this frame fits that approach.
