Babolat Pure Aero 98 (2026) Tennis Racquet

The Pure Aero 98 (2026) is the most precision-driven weapon in the Pure Aero lineup — built for aggressive players who swing fast, hit heavy, and demand total control when pulling the trigger.

Featuring the smallest head size, tightest string pattern, and thinnest beam in the Pure Aero family, this racquet gives you the confidence to swing big and hit your targets with pace and spin. It’s a Pure Aero tuned for players who don’t just rally — they dictate.

Despite its control-focused 98 sq in head, the Pure Aero 98 remains fast through the air, thanks to a sub-325 swingweight and a newly reengineered aerodynamic shaft design for 2026. Reduced wind drag makes it easier to whip the racquet head, accelerate through contact, and produce explosive spin or last-second defensive flicks when under pressure.

Comfort gets a serious upgrade with NF² Tech, which uses strategically placed flax fibres to absorb vibration and soften impact without muting feedback. You still get that crisp, connected Pure Aero response — just with a more arm-friendly feel.

Spin remains a Pure Aero trademark. FSI Spin Technology combines Babolat’s Woofer system with Spin Grommets to increase string movement and dwell time, delivering heavier rotation, sharper angles, and a more responsive feel on off-centre contact.

From the baseline to the net and especially on serve, the Pure Aero 98 rewards full, confident swings with accuracy, speed, and devastating spin.

If you play fast and attack first — this racquet was built for you.
