Overview
Babolat lists the Pure Aero Team Gen9 Unstrung as a tennis racquet with a 645 cm² / 100 in² head, 685 mm / 27 in length, 285 g +/- 7 unstrung weight, 320 mm +/- 7 unstrung balance, 280 swing weight, and a 16x19 stringing pattern. The cited page identifies this exact configuration as unstrung.
Construction and context
The manufacturer’s technical characteristics name graphite composition and a 23/26/23 section. Babolat also labels Aeromodular4, NF²-Tech 2.0, and FSI Spin as technologies. These are the manufacturer’s material and technology labels, rather than independent evidence of a particular playing result.
Who it may suit
This record can help a shopper distinguish the published 285 g unstrung configuration from other Pure Aero Gen9 records and compare its listed head size, balance, swing weight, pattern, stiffness field, and stringing status. Those fields do not establish fit or outcome for a particular player.
Specifications in context
- 285 g +/- 7 unstrung weight and 320 mm +/- 7 unstrung balance
- These are Babolat’s published unstrung-frame fields with stated tolerances, useful for comparison but not exact measurements of every individual racquet.
- 16x19 stringing pattern and 20-24 kg / 44-53 lbs tension recommendation
- These are the manufacturer’s listed stringing fields for this configuration, not a prediction of feel, durability, or a particular player’s result.
Tradeoffs and caveats
- Babolat attaches a +/- 7 tolerance to the published unstrung weight and balance values, so individual frames can vary.
- The listed swing-weight and stiffness fields are manufacturer-supplied comparison data, not independent measurements made by this directory.
- Strings, grip changes, dampeners, and other setup choices change a finished racquet beyond the stated unstrung configuration.
