What do Rafa's racquets (specially designed&made for him by his sponsor) have to do with the ATP Tour sponsors ??No RG racquets because Wilson is the Tour sponsor now (there will be RG clash and blade).
I bet this is a Spain edition PA since Babolat has been doing countries
New paintjob on his Pure Aero (yes, yes, I know it’s not actually a Pure Aero. Don’t bombard me with “Its an APD Original...” or “Its nothing close to a Pure Aero, blah blah blah”)

Babolat has designed&made racquets for Rafa since 2004, and will continue to do so.
Secondly, Grand Slam tournaments are not ATP events.

I misspoke. Edited previous post, I meant Wilson is the RG sponsor now, so they cannot produce RG branded products.What do Rafa's racquets (specially designed&made for him by his sponsor) have to do with the ATP Tour sponsors ??

U mean fuglyUgly.
Holy. Hell. That is Godly.A bigger picture:
Thanks, yeah makes sense. I almost forgot Wilson is taking over this year from Babolat. I'm surprised though that thre isn't a Spain flag PA put yet. I saw US, Japan and France. Even a Boost version flag racquet for Italy and Brazil!No RG racquets because Wilson is the RG sponsor now (there will be RG clash and blade).

I presume you like Serena outfits then? I think any Nadal outfit except maybe 2 is good.Hideous, like his outfits
To me that racquet looks GODLY, idk..... just love the craziness.
Let’s hope it didn’t get cancelled like IW, NBA, NCAA, hell.......Has this paintjob come out anywhere? Trying to figure out if it has been released outside of US. If it is the Spain version, I don't see it in the flag racquets Babolat has to offer.
I love the colorway, adds some interest to the pure aero. I also love the simplicity of the recent Wilson colorways.Oh Christ what is wrong with these designers.
Not just babolat either All of them mostly ..It’s like they get together and try to find the most embarrassing crass pj they can muster . Almost to tempt fate and say watch this guys . This “ racquet “ is so good the consumer will buy it no matter what
I can respect that . Everyone has their own perspectives . Who am I to say .I love the colorway, adds some interest to the pure aero. I also love the simplicity of the recent Wilson colorways.
What’s your favorite racquet colorway? Just interested.I can respect that . Everyone has their own perspectives . Who am I to say .
Omg.

yessirI love the colorway, adds some interest to the pure aero. I also love the simplicity of the recent Wilson colorways.
The black RF97A is awesome. Personally I don’t play with the pro staff but it looks great.I really like it. it looks like candy. but I still prefer the sleek all black rf97
I would definitely buy. The Pure Aero is an awesome racquet, and that PJ is dope. I was thinking it was gonna be a RG paintjob, like La Decima.Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but there is a rumor that this frame (paint scheme), may be released in early 2021. If so, do you like it? Would you buy it? Personally, I think it's pretty unique, and that's why Rafa likes it. I wonder if he'll be swinging it when the tour resumes later this year. Cheers.
I totally agree. I would love that. I also think it would be a huge seller, especially if he takes the slam lead of finishes as the leader. Only time will tell.Wish the would release a Rafa autograph with his or similar specs ...or just re- release the aeropro drive 1st gen
I 2nd that! I would buy like 10 if that ever happens. Still have 3 of the Gen1 APD and still going strong.Wish the would release a Rafa autograph with his or similar specs ...or just re- release the aeropro drive 1st gen
I would love an apd 1st gen release similar to the head MG radical, like it’s always sold. However they could either keep it at the pure aero price or drop it some.Wish the would release a Rafa autograph with his or similar specs ...or just re- release the aeropro drive 1st gen
I'm totally with you. I think it would be a great idea for Bab, just because I think so many people would love to pick these up. So many people would play with them and many would collect in my opinion.I would love an apd 1st gen release similar to the head MG radical, like it’s always sold.

Not sure if you will find a use for 10 racquets with a SW of 360, but it certainly would be a collector's item...I 2nd that! I would buy like 10 if that ever happens. Still have 3 of the Gen1 APD and still going strong.
I would like one with Rafa’s specs but I rather have the standard version reissue. If I do end up buying 10, I would use only 4 and like you said, the rest would be collector’s items.Not sure if you will find a use for 10 racquets with a SW of 360, but it certainly would be a collector's item...
I've heard from Babolat that there's talk of an early 2021 release.Does anyone know if Babolat will be releasing this paintjob of the Pure Aero?
