The Pure Drive team exhibits the same levels of both spin and power as the Pure Drive, incorporating this into a lighter, more user-friendly frame. Ideal for those intermediate level competitors, groundstrokes are made to feel crisp at contact with excellent feel and power. The definitive choice for explosive power, the latest Pure Drive range keeps all of what generations of players love about the iconic racket with Babolat making subtle changes upgrades that bring it a step closer to perfection. So exactly what makes this Pure Drive more 'explosive'? Babolat have made additions including the HTR System - a new lay-up composition for improved High Torsional Rigidity. This means that on high intensity shots, players can expect better energy transfer leading to increased power. Also new is the addition of SWX Pure Feel - an advanced vibration filtration system designed to improve feel and sound on ball impact. The cosmetic is updated with a striking double effect featuring the classic Pure Drive blue, as well as a deeper shade of blue. The 'Drive' logo on the throat of the frame is mirrored giving this racket a suitably powerful cosmetic.

I have played with Babalot PureDrive for several years, but due to recent hand surgery I ordered the Pure Drive Team with a slightly smaller grip size and wt. it was strung per my request and arrived promptly with free shipping. I’m extremely happy with the feel of this racquet. The slighty lighter wt. helps me to finish my service motion and overheads smoothly. Definitely recommend!

This racquet is the perfect combination of power, spin and control. As a smaller female player I find the weight of this racquet to be perfect. It is on the lighter side but produces plenty of power without having to over extend yourself.

A lot of easy power but easy to overhit if you aren't careful. First time using a Babolat frame and the reputation for stiff frames seems to hold up, it's noticeably stiffer than my Wilson Six. One.Probably not the best if you have a sensitive elbow and have regular heavy hitting sessions but otherwise a fun racquet.

After trying a dozen racquets, the Babolat Pure Drive Team racquet was just right!Good power, great spin, easy balance to maneuver for an all court game. Lightweight but does well at net against hard hitters.Easy to order from PGA Tour Superstore. Racquet arrived quickly, in 4 days. Thank you!
Personally this raquet is exactly what I was looking for. I love hitting the ball flat and this raquet helps me generate good power on my serve and forehands. Combined with a full bed of VS Gut and a couple of string protectors the raquet is super friendly on my wrist and elbow. I upgraded from an old Pure Drive Aero and the difference is night and day, it's elevated my serve two fold and overall control for a precise shot down the line.
I had the opportunity to demo the racquet before buying it so I knew it was the good one for me. I went to the store to buy it but they didn't have it in my grip size. So I ordered it online and received it within 24h.. then took it to the store for the free string installation and got done in a few hours!Couldn't be more pleased about the product and the service!
I purchased this racquet is to replace the previous Babolat Pure Drive (I believe it was the 2009 version). I like the new version as it has better stability while retaining the great playability and power. I went with Head Velocity MLT Power 16 Gauge. It gives me extra power (bit bouncy), hence I'd need to adjust a bit to gain back the control. Overall, it's still a great racquet. I'd like to highlight Holabirds great customer service. Standard shipping was surprisingly fast (3 days), and customer service was very responsive addressing the issue w/ the racquet. Overall, highly recommend Holabird!
I purchased this racquet to replace my Prince 100 that I have played with for over 14 years. A perfect replacement with more pop than my old racquet.
I tested this racquet in a demo of three racquets. This by far was the easiest and most natural to play with. Even without a dampener, the racquet was smooth while hitting with no stress on my arm or elbow. I know Babolat is a popular brand so I was skeptical of whether it was popular for the name or the actual play. This may have converted me away from my Prince racquets.
Fast shipping and great customer service.The new Babolat Pure Drive 2021 just set off my tennis skills in a whole new range. With the attachment of the Luxion Alu Power string, it is a more spectacular racquet offering high perfomance across the baseline and top spins. Highly recommended purchase.
