Read a Full Review of the Babolat AeroPro Drive Cortex Racquet from Rackets411.com

The Babolat AeroPro Drive Cortex, the racquet of choice for Rafael Nadal , is an updated version from the classic AeroPro Drive. In Babolat's constant technological pursuit to provide players with an even greater amount of comfort and feel, they have combined the excellent playing characteristics of the drive series racquets with their new technology called the Cortex System. The Cortex Technology filters out harmful vibrations that may contribute to tennis elbow without sacrificing the excellent feel and control that has made Babolat a world power in tennis equipment. The Woofer technology adds pistons to the frame that act as suspension to decrease the amount of shock that could potentially hurt the player. Like the earlier version, the AeroPro Drive Cortex features the same AeroModular technology that allows for a more aerodynamic frame to increase headspeed and further increasing the power and control permitted to the user.

We recommend the Babolat AeroPro Drive Cortex for NTRP rating 4.0 and above (advanced or intermediates to touring professionals). The weight is not excessive and, just like the other racquets in the Drive Z Series, the AeroPro Drive Cortex tennis racquet will have a strong appeal to people of all ages, from younger juniors to adult players. The AeroPro Drive Cortex Plus (or extended) version, which is 0.5 inches longer than the standard version, allows for greater leverage on the serve and reach.

PLAY like NADAL

...I wish. The raquet feels smooth and solid, and because of the way it is designed the racquet gives great swing speed. I think that helps to give more spin, not sure. All I know is that I received more spin, which was awesome! There is a reason the #1 in the world is playing with this racquet. And the racquet is yellow, how can you go wrong with yellow? Viva RAFA!

This is a really good racquet. It is great on groundstrokes, serves, and volleys. Only thing is that the cortex system is a bit exaggerated so I personally use a small dampener. Not too big of a problem though. Swing speed is unprecedented on groundstrokes and serves, and volleys pack punch. This raquet has pure drive power and K6-One Tour control(which is why Nadal uses it). Definitly a must buy, or at least a must demo.

Good.

The raquet is good overall, but it is way to light. If you like heavy raquets, this is defilnitoly not a raquet for you. In my opinion, I want a new raquet, not one that is a year old when i first get it. Otherwise this is a great rauquet.
