Combining the AeroPro beam design in the throat and the and Pure Storm beam design in the hoop, Babolat have captured the best performance properties of both designs in the Aero Storm Tour, which was formally known just as the Aero Storm. The result is a level of control and feel of a player's racquet combined with excellent maneuverability. From the baseline this racquet offers a solid feel at contact. Our TW playtesters found the racquet to plough-through the contact zone, resulting in a stable and comfortable hit. There's ample racquet mass and frame stiffness for ripping big groundstrokes, yet we were also impressed by the level of feel and control from the stringbed. At net the racquet offers a very clean feel. As with groundstrokes, we were impressed by the solid feel at impact. The head light balance helps maintain mobility and provides a classic feel for volleying. On serve we found easy access to spin and lots of comfort. Advanced players will find plenty of weight and pace from a fluid service motion. All in all the Aero Storm offers a very rewarding hit offering the best of the AeroPro and Pure Storm. Best suited to 4.0+ level players.
