US OPEN TENNIS

Babolat Drive Z Lite (Cortex) Tennis Racquet - 1407 The Babolat Drive Z-Lite with Cortex is now offered in a new cosmetic for 2007. The specification is exactly the same as the previous-generation Drive Z-Lite Cortex, utilizing the Cortex vibration filter at the top of the handle. Cortex is used in several of Babolat’s players racquets to enhance feel by cancelling only the 2 highest vibration frequencies. Only those frequencies that enhance feel are permitted to pass through the Cortex filter. Other than the addition of the Cortex filter (and a snazzy new paint scheme) Babolat has kept the specifications on this new version of the Drive Z-Lite w/ Cortex the same as the outgoing Drive Z-Lite. The Babolat Drive Z-Lite still has the feel of a “players” racquet with a solid, stable, comfortable feel, but with a broader appeal due to its lighter weight. Geared to the intermediate to advanced player possessing a longer, faster swing, who will appreciate the slightly lighter and more maneuverable feel versus the regular Pure Drive.

Babolat New Pure Drive (Cortex) 107 Tennis Racquet - 1332 An update to the legendary Babolat Pure Drive Team Oversize, the new Pure Drive 107 w/ Cortex utilizes a vibration filter called Cortex at the top of the handle. Cortex is used in several of Babolat’s players racquets to enhance feel by cancelling only the 2 highest vibration frequencies.Only those frequencies that enhance feel are permitted to pass through the Cortex filter.

Other than the addition of the Cortex filter (and a snazzy new paint scheme) Babolat has kept the specifications on this new Pure Drive 107 similar to the outgoing Pure Drive Team Oversize, with a few refinements. The headsize is slightly smaller (107 vs. 110 square inches), and length is reduced to 27.2″ from 27.5″. The Pure Drive Oversize w/ Cortex is now more like a traditional players racquet in the sense that it’s light, stiff, and fairly powerful. Control is improved versus the prior generation Pure Drive Team Oversize.

More effectively categorized as a tweener (between powerful/controlled), the Pure Drive still appeals to a very wide array of players. One of a few racquets that works well at the net, as well as the baseline.

Customer Review: Solid choice for 3.0-5.0 players
I have tried many of the babolat racquets [...] and found that this racquet was one of the most controllable and most powerful. More head space provides a bigger sweet spot and a lighter frame (perfect for beginners) and a bigger trampoline effect when it comes into contact with the ball When your are doing crisp volleys at the net the trampoline effect also improve your shots and control.
The lighter frame also improves your swing speed increasing the spin you put on the ball.
