Babolat Racket Pure Strike 100 Generation 4 Unstrung

Take command of your game with the Babolat Pure Strike 100 16×20 Gen4, a performance tennis racket designed for players who like to dictate rallies, attack with confidence and place the ball precisely.

With its 100 in² head size, 305 g unstrung weight and 16×20 string pattern, this Pure Strike delivers a controlled and stable response while maintaining the feel needed to play aggressively. The result is a racket made for players who want to turn their power into consistent, accurate shots.

Please note: this racket is supplied unstrung.

Why It Stands Out?

• Control-focused performance – Built to help you take control of rallies and play with greater precision.
• 16×20 string pattern – The denser string bed promotes a more predictable response and enhanced control over ball placement.
• Balanced performance – The combination of a 100 in² head size and 305 g frame offers a strong balance of stability, precision and manoeuvrability.
• Ideal for aggressive play – Designed for players who take the ball early, redirect pace and look to dictate rallies from the baseline.
• Control Frame Technology – Combines a squared frame structure with an elliptical profile to provide stability while maintaining a responsive feel.
• Enhanced comfort and feel – NF²-Tech uses natural flax fibres in strategic areas of the frame to help reduce unwanted vibrations.
• Connected feel at impact – Designed to give players better feedback and a more comfortable sensation when striking the ball.

Key Features:

• 100 in² / 645 cm² head size for a balance of control and forgiveness.
• 305 g unstrung weight for stability and a solid feel through impact.
• 16×20 string pattern for a controlled and consistent ball response.
• 310 mm unstrung balance for responsive handling.
• 685 mm standard length for adult tennis play.
• Graphite construction for a high-performance frame platform.
• Control Frame Technology for enhanced stability and control.
• NF²-Tech with natural flax fibres for improved comfort and feel.
• 22–26 kg / 48–57 lbs recommended string tension.
• Unstrung configuration allows players to choose their preferred string and tension.

Ideal For:

• Intermediate to advanced tennis players
• Aggressive counter-strikers
• Players who prioritise precision and control
• Baseline players who like to take the ball early
• Players who want a stable racket without moving into an excessively heavy frame
• Tennis players looking for a more controlled alternative to an open 16×19 string pattern
