There's nothing like the feeling of your racquet hitting through the ball and the sweet sound at impact. The Pure Drive Gen11 is made with flax fibers in the core of the racquet for a feel like no other. These natural fibers filter out unwanted vibrations to create a more comfortable feel at impact.

A new version 2.0 of natural flax fibers. This new 100% unidirectional flax fabric offers greater mechanical strength in the direction of the fibers and optimal filtration of vibrations. The flax patches are strategically placed to effectively filter vibrations and transmit only the desired feel to the player's hand.

Frame String Interaction Power is a technology that combines an open string pattern, diamond-shaped grommets and the Woofer 2.0 system (a new plastic part at the throat of the racquet) to further accentuate the trampoline effect of the strings. The longer contact time between ball and strings gives you extra power and feel when you hit the ball.

An elliptical frame structure optimizes stability at the throat of the racquet to maximize the energy return of the strings and to deliver more power.

This High Torsional Rigidity (HTR) system has been added to the frame's composition to increase impact stability and energy return.
