Babolat Pure Aero 100 + (2026)

Meet the 2026 Pure Aero Plus. Like previous generations, this racquet gives aggressive players the tools to hit a very heavy ball. What sets this racquet apart from the standard Pure Aero is its extended 27.5" length, giving it a higher potential for power and spin (think heavy ball). Although more challenging to swing, this Plus version not only packs more pop but also does a better job absorbing and redirecting the pace of big hitters. For 2026, Babolat reengineers the geometry of the shaft to reduce wind drag, making this extended length racquet feel surprisingly fast. Other updates include the latest version of NF2 Tech, a dampening technology that uses flax fibers in strategic locations to provide a softer, more arm-friendly ride. As with the previous generation, this update has FSI Spin Technology, which combines Babolat's time-tested Woofer system with strategically placed Spin Grommets to increase dwell time and string movement, generating greater spin and a more responsive feel on angled contact.

With impressive updates to the frame geometry and dampening, this update checks all the right boxes. Aggressive players looking for dangerous levels of spin and power will love this one. The fast feel is a nice bonus.
