Babolat Pure Aero Lite Rafa Tennis Racquet

The Babolat Pure Aero Lite Rafa is a limited edition design of the regular Pure Aero Lite. A racquet geared toward improving and intermediate players seeking the lightest of the Pure Aero series. 

With a low swing weight, this even balanced racquet makes playing a breeze for players who aren’t ready to handle the heft of Nadal’s stick!  Slightly less stiff than its predecessor, the added flex will provide even more control for hard hitters who are using this frame. Also, with the introduction of SMAC technology used in the 2018 Pure Drive, vibrations are minimized and feel is improved.  Rather than using the SMAC in the racquet throat like the Pure Drive, the placement at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock in the head respects the profile of the Pure Aero that players have come to know.

As always with this model, the key specs remain unchanged so that players using prior versions can transition seamlessly into this 2019 Pure Aero Team at any time.
