Pure Aero Plus (2023)

advanced202316x19

The Pure Aero Plus is the extended-length version of Babolat's flagship spin frame — 27.5 inches instead of the standard 27, which increases the swingweight and reach advantage from the baseline. The extra half-inch translates to a longer lever arm through contact, boosting spin potential and first-strike power. It's a specialist frame for serious baseliners who want every spin and power advantage the Pure Aero platform can deliver.

Who is this for?

Best for

Advanced baseliners who already play the Pure Aero and want more spin and reach

Not ideal for

Beginners, net players, or anyone who hasn't played an extended-length frame before

Our review

The Pure Aero taken one step further for committed baseline players. If you've been playing the Pure Aero for a while and want more, the Plus is a natural upgrade. Not a frame for everyone — try it before you buy.

Editorial note

The Plus spec is for serious baseliners who already love the Pure Aero and want more. The extended length genuinely adds spin and first-strike capability from the back of the court. Just know it takes time to adapt.
