HI guys..
I have an interesting afternoon today.. I stopped by my local tennis store to buy some stuff and I saw my friend strung a few "interesting" Babolat.. One of the Babolat said Pure Drive XL with beautiful graphics with NO WOOFER (it has some green swirl in the graphics).. and one with PureDrive+ NonCortex with WOOFER. The racquets had Fairway leather grip on it. I picked one up and swung around and wooww.. it felt good and heavy.. I looked under the bumper and there was lead all over the place.. So I asked my friend and he said it's belong to Jeff Tarango.. .. To make along story short.. 2hrs later I was face to face with Jeff and he brought me two brand new PureDrive Plus NonCortex with WOOFER. He said he was the third guy who played Babolat (After Moya & Nicolas Lapentti).. He was with Babolat advisory and design for the PureDrive.. The 2 PD+ that he handed to me was told that the exact racquet that Andy play with his NEW PD+ PaintJob.. The ones I got were brand new with no plastic grip on it.. The cushion said Babolat ATP Tour grip.. I will have some pictures taken by tomorrow.. It was inside plastic that said for ATP Pro..
Anyway.. anyone kindly list some specs for the very first PureDrive (NON WOOFER) XL (or standard) then PD+ with Woofer and PD+ Cortex? I was asking Jeff to get me some original PureDrive with NO-CORTEX, NO WOOFER and he said it's almost impossible to find one nowadays.. Even the ones that he handed to me..
I will post some pictures comparison tomorrow..
