What is the Most Powerful Babolat or Any Racket?

[Orson Welles]

Racket information is harder to come by these days.

Can someone please confirm that the Pure Drive Plus is more powerful than the Aeropro Drive Plus?

Also, which of the following is more powerful?

Pure Drive GT Plus
Pure Drive Roddick GT Plus
Pure Drive Cortex Plus?

Finally, two related questions. What is the most powerful Babolat Tennis racket on the market? and, What is the most powerful racket from any manufacturer on the market? Is there anything now available on the market that is as powerful as the Triad 2 that they used to sell about 10 years ago?

Personally I think headsize and beam width dont really have a big impact on power. It can help you hit your groundstrokes longer with less effort but to me that is not power. Power mostly comes from weight (swingweight) and swingspeed and racquet stiffness. So for maximum power you want a racquet that you can control while swinging it fast and as heavy as you can consistently swing fast over the course of a match and as stiff as your body can handle.

Racquet length will help power if it doesnt slow down your swing, same as weight. The PDR+ is the most powerful of the ones you mentioned.

For real power you should get a stiff vantage 90 sq in as heavy as it can be and 28 inch long.

Later part of this question is truly weird. Most brands make "game improvement" 110+ for beginners or older club players with osteoarthritis. Usually stiff, head heavy, and more power than you'd ever want, unless your swing arc tops off at 45 degrees or so...

Give me an update on your new lightweight 108 Vortex. It makes me interested as i like innovation but, have made my shre of mistakes on oddball racquets
Thanks

I hit with a co-worker's Babolat Y-Line racquets. Ball shot out fast! Ball took off but didn't know how to land... Reminded me of the Wilson Profile days...
