Powerful lightweight racket that offers awesome control

Advantages: Control and power, an excellent all round racket
Disadvantages: Like all good tennis rackets its kind of expensive,

...A friend who swears by Babolat recommend that I buy the Babolat AeroPro Drive +, so I decided to go to the store and check it out. As I was trying the racket out in the store I felt a sense of power yet control, I decided to take a risk and buy it. When I began using the racket I realized I had made the right choice, for me this is a new generation of racket, I think it has can great benefits for both intermediate and advanced players, I as an intermediate ...
...different one and adapt straight away, I am not like that, after breaking my Wilson which I had used for 3 years I couldn´t find a racket that suited me until I tried out this Babolat now I am looking forward to taking my game to a whole new level. ...

...and butter baseline swings. If you feel that this is the racket for you, i would recommend trying it (or any similar Babolat model) first to make sure you have the strength and ability to pull off the insane shots is allows to Nadal. Happy hitting ...

Really nice racket to play with

Advantages: Powerful, Comfortable grip, nice weight ratio, good head size, nice looking
Disadvantages: Part of the shaft has a square shaft which I occasionally rest my hand on and can hurt...Thats it!

...I changed to my first Wilson racket, and since then I have never changed... . The [K]Blade is the last racket that I changed to; I bought it as soon as it came out and loved the way it plays, the frame is relatively stiff, and the 98 produces quite alot of power, I have never been a user of the really heavy rackets because I like to get alot of racket head speed behind the ball so with a lighter racket I find it easier...Still with a 304g weight ...
...rackets they are all made in the same way it just each company has their own selling point which makes the racket feel a little bit different - It is just personal opinion, All I know is that I will always choose Wilson as the brand to buy rackets from. ...

Very smooth and weighty racket, you need arms like Nadal!

Advantages: spin, power, good strings and style
Disadvantages: heavy racket

...rackets on trial and the Babolat AeroPro Plus is one of them. As used by Rafael Nadal. I found it personally a bit on the heavy side ( about 11.1oz strung). Nevertheless this racket does feel good especially when used for various spin shots and baseline shots. I found it especially good for slice serving, it really gives a nice kick and due to the longer length of the racket it enabled me to reach a bit further when I am stretching and greatly benefits ...
...this is a head heavy racket combined this with the cortex filter system (reduces vibration) and aero frame design it gives a better feel of the ball and enhances maneuverability meaning that more power can be generated. It has a nice size head at 100sq.in. which gives a nice sized sweet spot, which is quite forgiving as I tend to miss the sweetspot a lot. The design is very unique and I got noticed when I used it on the tennis court and many people ...

solid feel, very comfortable and looks good

Advantages: very consistent throughout
Disadvantages: consistent but lacks power and comfort compared to other rackets

...very big fan of the Head radical series, I have been using Head tennis rackets for around 10 years and my first Head radical was the Intelligence series, although quite heavy it feels well balanced throughout. This racket is similar. I have the oversize version with a headsize of 107sq.in. and weighs around 295grams strung, which i believe it is a nice weight. It is my personal choice. The main positives of this racket is that when i use it my baseline ...
...have used like the Babolat aeropro drive and Wilson K six.one (90). However, these rackets do cost nearly double the price of the Head racket. I believe this racket is suited for intermediate to advanced players who want a consistent feel and power throughout. ...
