2019 Babolat Pure Aero JR 25 100inch 16*19 240g

Positioned as a junior frame, this racquet targets players seeking a specific balance of performance traits. The 100 in² head size boosts forgiveness and sweet spot size. A stiffness rating of 60 RA results in a softer, more dampened response at impact. With an unstrung weight of 240 g, the frame favors maneuverability. The 16x19 string pattern (semi open) influences spin access and launch angle. Performance-wise, it scores 60/100 for power, 80/100 for spin, and 40/100 for control, outlining its on-court behavior. Comfort levels are above average, supporting longer hitting sessions. The frame profile indicates a relatively low risk of arm-related discomfort. It is best suited for beginner players.

Forum feedback often praises the Pure Aero family for easy access to topspin and a lively, powerful response, especially for baseline-heavy play. A recurring theme is that the firmer feel can be demanding on sensitive arms, with multiple players reporting elbow/shoulder discomfort depending on setup and technique; others still enjoy it but flag comfort as the main tradeoff versus spin/power.
