Tennis Racket Quick Guide

Not in a rush? Check out our detailed racket guide.

Beginners: a larger head size gives more power and a bigger sweet spot — forgiving on off-centre hits.
Intermediate players: a mid-plus head size balances power and control.
Advanced players: often prefer smaller head sizes for precision, but it needs consistent technique.

Lighter (260–280g): easier to manoeuvre — good for beginners, juniors, or slower swing speeds.
Medium (280–310g): a mix of power and control — suits many intermediate players.
Heavier (310g+): more stability and power, but needs good technique — preferred by many advanced players.

Head-Heavy: more power, especially for shorter swings.
Even-Balance: a balanced feel, suits a broad range of players.
Head-Light: easier to manoeuvre — favoured by advanced players and net play in doubles.

Open (16x18 or 16x19): more spin and power, but strings wear faster.
Dense (18x20): more control and better string durability.

Ruler test: measure from the middle of your palm to the tip of your ring finger — 4 to 4⅜ inches suits most adults.
On-racket test: hold the racket for a backhand — there should be a finger’s width of space between your fingers and the base of your thumb.
Common sizes: G0 = 4", G1 = 4⅛", G2 = 4¼", G3 = 4⅜", G4 = 4½", G5 = 4⅝".
When in doubt, go smaller — an overgrip can build a grip up, but you can’t reduce one.

The Babolat Evo Drive Lite offers a perfect balance of power and playability for developing players. Designed similar to the Pure Drive, the Evo Drive Lite is a performance racket that provides softer feeling and less strain that advanced frames.

The open 16/17 string pattern and 104 sq.in headsize allows players to plough through their shots with added power and spin. The larger sweet spot makes the racket more forgiving ,ensuring even off-center hits fly off the frame with sufficient power and accuracy. Babolat has introduced a thin layer of high damping material in the frame to absorb vibrations and shock at impact. This provides players with a softer feel and less strain on the arm during long matches.

SWX EVO FEEL

Amazing comfort on every shot thanks to advanced SMAC technology, located in three key areas of the frame. Its very high dampening properties have already proven their worth in the aerospace industry.

ELLIPTIC FRAME

Elliptical frame structure for optimal resistance and overall rigidity for phenomenal power.

WOOFER SYSTEM

The first and most effective frame-string interaction system : a longer ball/string contact time for greater control and a sensation of comfort.
