Attention Talk Tennis Members:
New year, new playtest! We have the brand new Babolat Pure Aero 98 that will be in stock in just a couple days. This playtest is open to USA Talk Tennis members only.
VERY IMPORTANT: Playtesters will be required to get their test racquet strung. Each racquet will be shipped with a set of Babolat Xcel 16 and RPM Blast 17 strings. Please note that we have two grip sizes available - grip size 2 and 3.
Application period is now closed. Selected playtesters will be notified via email by Monday, January 23rd.
We have a very limited quantity of racquets to playtest. We select playtesters based on a number of factors, including message board participation and performance on past playtests.
Your review is due by February 24th, 2023 by 5 pm PST.
Posting a full review by the deadline is necessary to remain in good standing for future playtests. Reviews lacking sufficient effort will resort in disqualification from the playtest program.

We will delete “request sent” emails, but encourage a lively “pre-game” discussion on the racquets.
