Feel
There's nothing like feeling your racket slice through the ball with that famous cracking sound at impact. The Pure Drive 98 Gen11 will provide pure sensations thanks to the addition of flax fibers in the racket's core. These natural fibers offer optimal vibration dampening, allowing only the good sensations at impact to come through.

The Pure Drive 98 Gen11, with its new frame and 16x20 string pattern, will give you extra stability and ball security so you feel completely confident on the court to execute winning shots.

NF²-TECH 2.0
A new 2.0 version of natural flax fibers. This new 100% unidirectional flax fabric offers better mechanical resistance in the direction of the fibers and optimal vibration filtering. The flax patches are strategically placed to effectively filter vibrations and transmit only the desired sensations to the player's hand.

FSI POWER
The Frame String Interaction Power is a technology that combines an open string pattern, diamond-shaped grommets, and a Woofer system to enhance the trampoline effect of the head. An extended contact time between the ball and the strings will provide more power and feel at impact.

ELLIPTIC FRAME TECHNOLOGY
An elliptical section optimizing stability at the heart of the racket to maximize the trampoline effect of the head and deliver more power.

HTR SYSTEM
This system, ensuring high torsional rigidity (HTR), has been added to the frame's composition to enhance stability at impact, resulting in better energy return.
