Pure Drive 30th Anniversary Tour racket unstrung

Babolat's DNA has always been to analyse developments in the game and find the best answers to tennis players' needs in order to counteract trends and create new ones. While in the 90s tennis was mainly dominated by control-orientated rackets, characterised by small racket heads and frames with square cross-sections, Babolat developed the Pure Drive in 1994. A tennis racket with a 645cm² racket head and an elliptical cross-section to generate power and change the rules of the game.

4 years later, Carlos Moya won his first Grand Slam on clay with the now iconic Pure Drive. This was the first of many successes for this racket, both professional and amateur.

Today, the Pure Drive celebrates its 30th anniversary. 30 years of success, 30 years of power, 30 years of blue. To celebrate this iconic tennis racket, Babolat has redesigned one of the most important elements of the Pure Drive. The colour blue, which has stood for power, versatility and modernity for 30 years.

We have processed all shades of blue since the first edition in 1994 in an innovative painting process that offers a random design of blue tones. Each Pure Drive 30th Anniversary tennis racket therefore has a unique design that resembles no other tennis racket.

The Pure Drive is designed for players looking for a powerful, versatile and manoeuvrable tennis racket. This universal tennis racket will give you unique emotions with every shot, every winning shot and every victory, just as it has done for 30 years.

Pro players on the BABOLAT team can play with a customised model or with a model that differs from the equipment shown.
