This racquet has the right amount of spin, power, and control she needs to swing confidently. She is a 2.0 - 2.5 player with an all court game and medium spin. She did a demo of 6 racquets and the Pure Strike was just right. Ultimately, with some impressive tweaks to the feel, the Pure Strike 100 remains a great option for the player who wants a light player's racquet with easy targeting on full swings.Ĭomments: My wife got into tennis this last year and needed an upgrade from an entry level racquet. This racquet also shines on service returns where it is versatile enough to block first serves deep or punish second serves. Aggressive servers will find enough spin, precision and power to force weak replies. At net, the Pure Strike 100 comes around fast to deliver good touch, above average stability for its weight class and decent pop on punch volleys. Boasting a higher swingweight than the previous generation, this update does a slightly better job absorbing and redirecting pace, but it's still speedy enough for whipping up effective spin. Although not as powerful as the Pure Drive or Pure Aero, the Pure Strike 100 packs enough pop to penetrate the back court along with the needed pocketing and touch for crafting droppers and sharp angles. On groundstrokes, this stick feels fast, crisp and accurate. New to this frame is C 2 Pure Feel, a material technology that combines cortex with a uniquely flexible viscoelastic rubber at 3/9 o'clock for added comfort and dwell time. This racquet also has FSI Power technology which features wider spacing between the upper cross strings for easier access to spin and pace. Like the previous generation, it has a hybrid frame construction (called Control Frame Technology), which blends the control and feel of square beam with the speed and dynamism of a modern elliptical beam. At approximately 11.1 ounces strung and boasting a 319-RDC swingweight, the Pure Strike 100 strikes the right balance between speed and stability. Interested ?
