Today Babolat remains a family-run business, and is led by 44-year-old Eric Babolat, the great-great-grandson of founder Pierre.

How often should I replace tennis racquet?

What is the Babolat purestorm GT?
On volleys, the Babolat PureStorm GT is perfect for penetrating and drop volleys. The racket is a little stiffer than most, so getting the ball down to the base line was a breeze.
Is the Babolat Pure Storm a good racquet?
Here is my classic racquet review. The Babolat Pure Storm line is discontinued these days. Much to the dismay of fans of control-oriented and plush player frames. This racquet is somewhat of a rarity in the Babolat heritage of frames. The brand is usually relying more on power and spin from thicker, stiffer beams and open string patterns.
What do you like most about the new Babolat GT technology?
Babolat’s new GT technology provides an even more stable and solid feel than previously. I love the solid stability and enjoy the comfort from all areas on the court. This racquet is a true player’s frame. Its classic feel and response makes it a great fit for advanced players (NTRP 4.0+) who have strong long and fast strokes.
How good is the Pure Storm Tour GT?
The brand is usually relying more on power and spin from thicker, stiffer beams and open string patterns. The Pure Storm Tour GT is far from a Pure Drive or a Pure Aero. In its playability and feel, it is more like a Prestige. When it comes to flex, some people love it and some people hate it.
