Babolat Pure drive 30th aniversary

Babolat's core ethos has always centered around analyzing shifts in the game to offer optimal solutions that cater to tennis players' evolving needs. In the 1990s, tennis favored control-centric racquets characterized by small heads and square frames. In 1994, Babolat defied this trend by introducing the Pure Drive—a racquet featuring a 645cm² head and an elliptical frame designed to enhance power and redefine the game's dynamics. Four years later, Carlos Moya clinched his first Grand Slam victory with the iconic Pure Drive, marking the beginning of numerous successes for the racquet at both professional and amateur levels.

Today, the Pure Drive commemorates its 30th anniversary—a milestone defined by three decades of triumph, potency, and its signature blue hue. To celebrate this iconic racquet, Babolat has revisited one of the Pure Drive's pivotal elements: its distinctive blue color, symbolizing power, adaptability, and contemporary design since 1994. We've encapsulated the essence of every blue shade used over the years, employing an innovative painting technique to create a unique and randomized blue pattern on each racquet. The Pure Drive 30th Anniversary edition is tailored for players seeking a potent, versatile, and agile tennis racquet. This all-encompassing racquet promises a distinctive experience with every winning stroke—a legacy it has upheld for the past three decades.
