![]() ![]() Thank you.Ĭomments: Great racquet for slice backhands and semi-western forehands. I returned it and Tennis Warehouse sent a new one. Only downside has been reflex volleys feel a bit sluggish in doubles.Ĭomments: Received racquet for my grandson. I think TW may have had some under-spec racquets with their 334 SW. My 2 Tours have a swingweight of 343 and 345 with a static weight of roughly 345 grams and a 32.6cm balance when strung with 1.20 cyclone and rubber band dampener. The swing weight listed on the marketing card supplied with the racquet took me by surprise at 315 unstrung. This Gen 3 Strike Tour has been a great replacement, more head heavy and more power, but less whip. Ultimately, while the Pure Strike Tour is a demanding racquet, it provides experienced players with the ability to hit a very precise and heavy ball.Ĭomments: Had come from the Babolat Pure Storm Tours and the original Pure Aero VS Tour. Aggressive servers who can get this stick moving fast will find the spin and precision to work the corners of the service box with pace. The extra mass also comes in handy on service returns where this stick feels very stable on blocks, chips and counterpunches. At net, the Pure Strike feels solid when redirecting higher levels of pace, and there is plenty of touch for hitting droppers and sharp angles. Experienced players with sound mechanics will have the needed mass to send a simple block or outstretched flick deep into opposing territory. It feels wonderfully solid at impact, and it has the potential to generate dangerous levels of power and spin. From the baseline, the Pure Strike Tour doesn't get pushed around when your opponent's pace goes up. New to this frame is C 2 Pure Feel, a material technology that combines cortex with a uniquely flexible viscoelastic rubber at 3/9 o'clock for added comfort and dwell time. This racquet also has FSI Power technology which features wider spacing between the upper cross strings for easier access to spin and pace. Like other members of the Pure Strike family, this racquet has a hybrid frame construction (called Control Frame Technology), which blends the control and feel of square beam with the speed and dynamism of a modern elliptical beam. The Tour has the same spin-friendly precision of Pure Strike 16x19, but the extra mass, while more challenging to swing, results in a heavier, more powerful ball. At 12 ounces strung and boasting a 330+RDC swingweight, this stick is ideal for the experienced player who wants stability and plow-through. With the Tour model, Babolat adds a more advanced player's racquet to the Pure Strike 3rd Gen family. ![]()
