Introducing the 2023 Pure Aero Rafa. If, like Rafa, you are determined to fight for every point, this second-generation Pure Aero Rafa tennis racquet is made for you. More radiant and dynamic, this racquet was designed with Rafa, for Rafa.
A few grams lighter (290g), with a more head-heavy balance and a more open string pattern than the Pure Aero, we created this racquet to give you more distance and weight behind the ball, pushing your opponent back and wearing them down in every rally.
For the intermediate player the 2023 Pure Aero Rafa doesn't put any dampening technology between player and ball, giving the advanced player direct ball feedback.
With a much lighter swing weight than the Rafa Origin at 297, and a stiffness RA of 73 (+/-3) it allows the player to whip up spin or reset the point with an outstretched flick, it also gives you the advantage of a near even balance, which helps keep the racquet more stable (and comfortable) through impact.
Benefits:
Spin - Nail every shot and keep your opponent running between the four corners of the court. The Pure Aero Rafa offers unparalleled results. Thanks to its impressive stability, this tennis racquet allows you to fully engage with the ball. Featuring the Woofer System, a head-heavy balance, and a more open string pattern than the Pure Aero, this tennis racquet will give you more weight behind the ball to push your opponent back and dominate every rally.
Power - Send your rival back behind the baseline and boost your power with the new Pure Aero Rafa tennis racquet. Specially designed with a stiffer frame and a more head-heavy balance, this racquet will help you set the pace on the court with powerful shots.
Feel - A blast of sound, radiating raw power, for greater sensations on impact.
Aeromodular - A specially developed aerodynamic frame to increase racquet head speed and generate more spin.
FSI Spin Technology - Optimised string pattern for maximum spin. The Woofer System offers maximum spin with a perfect feel, resulting from extended contact between the ball and the strings.
