Babolat Pure Aero Gen.9 Junior Tennis Racket
The Babolat Pure Aero Gen9 Junior is a performance junior tennis racket built for young competitive players who want to develop spin and depth. It is designed for kids playing regular coaching sessions, interclub and tournament tennis around New Zealand. If your child is progressing beyond beginner level and starting to shape the ball with topspin, this frame supports that growth.
It brings the Pure Aero DNA into a junior size that is easier to manage and swing.
Supports Progression
This is not a basic entry level junior racket. The Pure Aero Gen9 Junior is aimed at young players who train consistently and are building technical skills.
The frame encourages proper stroke mechanics, especially on forehands where topspin is a key part of modern tennis. As they grow stronger and more consistent, this racket will continue to support their development.
Ideal for Competitive Juniors
If your child is competing in school or regional tournaments, this model gives them access to spin focused performance in a junior format. It is suited to players who are already comfortable rallying from the baseline and want to add shape and depth to their shots.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Babolat Pure Aero Gen9 Junior suitable for beginners?
It is better suited to developing or competitive juniors rather than complete beginners. New players may benefit from a lighter and more forgiving entry level junior racket.

Compared to basic junior rackets, the Pure Aero Gen9 Junior offers a more advanced frame and string pattern focused on spin and progression.
Will this help my child hit with more topspin?
Yes. The updated frame and string pattern are specifically designed to promote topspin, helping them hit higher over the net and deeper into the court.
