🎵 String strategy for each frame
These are different rackets — they deserve different string setups.
Pure Drive 2025
Balanced stiffness (RA 66). A mid-stiffness co-poly like Babolat RPM Team or Wilson Revolve at 52–56 lbs gives a comfortable all-court setup without sacrificing spin or control.
Blackout 300 XTD v2
Balanced stiffness (RA 67). A mid-stiffness co-poly like Babolat RPM Team or Wilson Revolve at 52–56 lbs gives a comfortable all-court setup without sacrificing spin or control.
⚖️ Specs Equalizer
Can I make these specs match?
To match the swingweight of the Blackout 300 XTD v2 (SW 327), add 8g of lead tape at the 12 o'clock position on the Pure Drive 2025. This raises its swingweight from 317 to approximately 327 kg·cm².
