Babolat Pure Strike 98 Tennis Racket Unstrung 2025 (FRAME)

Babolat Pure Strike 98 16x19 Carbon Grey

Babolat gives the Pure Strike 98 a fresh update with a sleek carbon grey cosmetic, while retaining the trusted specs and performance of the standard model.

Engineered for intermediate and advanced players, this racquet offers a superb blend of controllable power and feel. Compared to the 18x20 version, the 16x19 string pattern provides greater spin potential and easier access to angles and varied shot trajectories. With a 330 swingweight, it remains rock-solid against pace while unlocking impressive power on full swings.

For 2024, Babolat introduces FSI Control Technology, delivering tighter string spacing for added precision and predictability. Comfort is enhanced with NF²-Tech flax fibers in the shaft, while leaving the head free of dampening agents to preserve direct, connected feedback. Stability and responsiveness are further reinforced by Control Frame Technology, which combines square and elliptical beam sections.

The result is a racquet that caters to experienced ball strikers seeking a stable frame with the perfect balance of power, spin, and feel.
