Babolat adds another chapter to the Pure Strike 98 16×19! Like previous generations, this update is made for players who want a control-oriented racket that has enough pop to finish points. It also offers more spin potential than its 18×20 counterpart, making it easier to execute the full range of angles and trajectories. Other specs include a 330 swingweight, which not only keeps the racket stable against higher levels of pace but also translates into impressive power on big cuts. For this update, Babolat adds FSI Control technology, which features tighter string spacing for an even more precise and predictable trajectory. To help with comfort, Babolat updates this racket with NF2-Tech (flax fibers) in the shaft while keeping the head free of dampening agents to provide more direct ball feedback. As with previous generations, this frame benefits from Control Frame Technology, which blends square and elliptical cross sections to enhance stability and ball feedback. Ultimately, with subtle updates to the feel, the Pure Strike 98 16×19 remains a great option for experienced players looking for a stable racket with controllable power and great feel.
