The Babolat Pure Aero Rafa Origin Tennis Racquet is played by Rafael Nadal. The cosmetic is inspired, but what separates this frame from the pack is the 11.2-ounce unstrung weight and very heavy swing weight. This model doesn't feature any of the dampening technologies of the current Pure Aero models, so the feel for the ball is very connected and raw. Babolat`s Woofer grommet system helps to increase string movement for added power and spin, and the aero-modular beam cuts through the air for faster racquet head speed. This racquet makes a great collector's item for any Rafa fan and if you are an experienced player capable of swinging a heavy frame, this one will be a very stable racquet.
Features:
-Heavyweight and swing weight just like Rafa plays on tour.
-No modern dampening system for a raw and connected feel.
-New bright cosmetic!
-Old school WOOFER grommet system for increased string movement.
