The Babolat AeroPro Drive Junior GT 26 racquet is for the aspiring, young tennis professional. Inspired by Rafael Nadal's racquet of choice, the Aeropro Drive GT Junior offers all the same technology as the heavier version, but in a smaller and lighter frame. Ideal for players 9-11 years old, this 8.6 racquet offers great maneuverability and power. The Aeropro Drive GT Junior (26") comes prestrung and comes with an attractive cover.

Graphite Tungsten: A hybrid material, combing braided carbon fibers and tungsten filaments, throughout the entire racquet. Improves racquet performance, based on the concentration of Tungsten fibers at strategic parts of the frame. GT technology adds control and feel.


 

 

The Cortex System is a revolutionary active technology between the throat and handle of the racquet. With this new technology, the two parts of the racquet are linked by an interface in CDS (Cortex Dampening System) material. This technology allows the filtering of the different vibratory modes. It eliminates unnecessary vibrations and enhances the feel of the ball. "Enjoy the pure feel."
 

 

Thinner width at the upper section of the raquet provides increased power. The standard width midsection provides stability, and a wider base provides more stiffness for increased control and a faster swing.

 

Woofer, Babolat's patented innovation, is the first technology that causes the frame and strings to interact when striking the ball. Woofer provides 25% more contact time between the ball and strings, giving players more control and feel. Further, the optimized interaction between the frame and the strings allows the racquet to deliver its full potential.
