Babolat Pure Strike 100 Gen4 - Full Technical Overview
The Babolat Pure Strike 100 Gen4 continues the series' emphasis on control and precision while introducing a more accessible 100in² head size suited for a wider range of players. Built for those who prefer a connected, stable feel at impact, this generation features updated frame technologies that enhance ball pocketing, responsiveness, and overall consistency.

The open 16/19 string pattern supports effective spin production, while the 21 / 23 / 21mm beam architecture delivers controlled power and dependable directional accuracy.
