Babolat
Pure Aero Team (2023)
The Pure Aero Team sits between the Lite and full Pure Aero in the Babolat lineup — slightly heavier than the Lite at 280g, but still significantly lighter than the flagship. It delivers the Pure Aero's signature spin technology in a more forgiving package, making it a smart choice for developing players who want topspin upside without a full players-frame weight.

Our review
A smart step up from the Lite for developing players who want more spin and a slightly more substantial feel. Good bridge racket for the player working toward the full Pure Aero.
Editorial note
The Team spec is the sweet spot in the Pure Aero entry-level lineup — more racket than the Lite, still manageable for developing players. A good transition frame for the player who's been on a super-light racket and wants to build up.
