If the banana yellow was the "Banana", this is the "Tutti Frutti"?
Tutti Frutti haha yes
Tutti Frutti it is
Video starts at 2:40
Wow, must be one of the first videos on this racquet, thanks Harry & Chris!
I cannot wait for this racket to come out! Buying it immediately! I modified the previous rafa racket with weight in the head and handle and it feels great. Can’t wait to try this.
So excited for this. Thanks for the upload!
As a big Rafa fan, what I could only say is even the idol filter can’t save this racquet 😂 but Vamos Rafa!!!
I absolutely LOVE the paintjob on this one, looks much better than the other Rafa one imo, will defs be buying it.
Most entertaining and knowledgeable tennis guy on RUclips
Entertaining yes, but Harry is far from the most knowledgeable on YT. Says things often that are head scratchers….
This is hilarious !!! 🤣 99% of the people that buy this racquet will not be able to use it!! 375g swingweight is out of this world
100%
I use the 315 there’s no way in hell I could use 375; most ppl I know use like 270 like how does one use a 375g racquet??? Maybe I’ve just gotta try it out…
Ok, since I started to watch TennisSpin a while back, I remember Harry disecting Rafa's 2008 Wimbledon match winning racket. The specs differ a bit from the signature racket as follows:
2018 Wimbledon racket:
Weight -339
Balance-333
Swingweight -361
Signature Racket:
Weight -340
Balance-338
Swingweight -375
If the signature racket is what he plays now, then my guess is that he has gotten much stronger since 2008 and increased the weight on the racket.
The differences seems "tennis acceptable"
A few years ago uncle Tony talked about how they added a couple of grams at 12 o’clock. This was around 2017-18 iirc. That would explain the jump in sw.
or it's babolat QC =p
just add an overgrip to change its SW and balance
@@aj520605overgrip may change the balance but not the sw. It is only reduced if weight is taken away from the head of the racket.
A collectors item. Great to have for any fan. Puts you in Rafa’s shoes and that’s awesome. It’s why I bought (and have) a K-Tour 90. I’m terrible with it (I use a 100 head). , but it makes me smile every time I use it for 20 minutes or so
Love this paint job!!!!
I love top heavy head racquets. miss the old graphite racquets, but as I’m older now, my elbow and shoulder does not miss the heavier heads. lol Thanks for the thorough review
Specs like this makes one appreciate Nadal and Pete Sampras´ achievements al the more:
Nadal:
- 20 seasons on tour
- 22 Majors / 92 titles / 36 Masters
- one racquet used: 335-345g / 360-370SW / 100” head
Sampras:
- 13 seasons on tour
- 14 Majors/Slams / 64 titles / 11 Masters
- one racquet used: 384g / 367SW / 85” head
This raquet looks like a sure fire way to get tennis elbow.
For those who don't have the technique and stamina to swing it properly -- ie. probably 99+% of the tennis-playing population -- you're likely correct.
Yep spot on, i'm using this frame for the last 4 months and it destroyed my elbow, and the swing weight on mine is ''only'' 354 grams, i have to revert back to the 2019 aero rafa with a more reasonable swing weight of 325 grams
SW is huge, especially when you think that RF97s SW is 333.
Been waiting for some news on this racquet
Wow, it is the actual Rafael Nadal racquet! 👍😁 Buying it before it gets out of stock!😮
I'm going to get this one for sure.
Thanks for putting this up again lol
RF97 Vs Rafa Origin 100 - Strung weight 357 Vs 340 / Flex 68 Vs around 70 (spec listed as 73) / 9 pts HL Vs 1.5 pts HL/ Swing weight 333 Vs 375. So Rafa Origin is lighter but with higher swing weight than RF97.
Awesome piece
340g, head heavy and 375 swing weight. Sounds like a monster. Add in poly and tons of folks are looking at some sore elbows.
Awesome review! The paint job is cool. It is not as good looking as the 2019 Rafa PA paint job. The specs are off the chart. It will be a fun collectible. I think the lighter spec would be the option to go with for most players wanting to seriously play with the frame.
It looks like Superman Ice Cream... Guess that is appropriate for Rafa (saying that as a Fed fan).
Love the weight (my racquets around 345g with overgrip)... but that balance and swingweight are crazy. Definitely need to be Superman to wield it.
Above the 300 grams and also HEAD HEEEAVY!!!! My arm is already hurts from hearing that 🤣🤣🤣🔥
So loud... so cool.. such 80's Miami Vice vibes ... does it come with a pair of sunglasses?
„Welcome to candy shop“...😂
Babolat I am proud of you 👍
It would have been interesting to look under the bumperguard before stringing it to see if they put lead. Or is the weight inside of the frame?
I will get one to play with :)
You wouldn’t happen to sell a Pure Aero 2019(banana)or the Rafa Limited Edition racquet(2022) grip 1, 300g in your shop? Can I know the pricing and do you ship to Canada?
Harry going to lead this up!! 2 light for him😂😂😂
Hello, do you know when we'll be able to buy this racket?
If you aren’t sure about your sexual orientation then I recommend you this racket.
Where can I get this?
It's the 1980s pastel craze is back with that racquet.
375, omg
Ты ещё Серены RDC не знаешь!!🤣🥎🤣
Harry actually looks more comfortable hitting w/ the Pure Rafa.
Yeah, It may be close to the specs of his leaded racket 😆
Doesn’t matter, he still sails his forehand with the best of ‘em. 9:10
Harry to Jerome: Needs more lead! 🤣
@@raychayyc You might be right! It’ll help quell the spasmodic action.
This would come out a day after buying an old rafa raquet
How on earth did Rafa okay this paint job 😂
Oley , bienvenidos
When will it release?
I need Rafa’s new bag.
Rasberry lemonade
If Tennis spin saw my old Kungfu teacher he would think that he has found his long lost twin.
It is better to produce and use Carlos Moyas' specs: 320g with balance down to floor;) Quite lile to handle and much power and stability at the same time. And it's manageable for everybody
WHEN IS IT GOING OUT!????? Release Date please
you ever have a store in tulsa?
But what about the big elephant in the room question!!! Is it the original Aero Pro Drive pre Cortex of just heavy spec current model ????
The other elephant I know, it’s gonna cost $350 a piece !!!
Saying that I have the OG aero that Rafa actually plays with, at one point I had it at 375 grams strung with all the lead in head so it was around 375 swingweight, and I was playing great, but it looked like crap because all the lead made it silver 😂
I recently modified iRadical to make it almost exactly like Djokovic frame at 355 grams 355 swingweight, and it’s probably the best racquet I’ve ever hit, every says high swingweight is horrible for amateur players, and it is, but first 30 minutes feel like Heaven!!!
So far big 3 racquet rating by me is
#1 Novak iRadial 95 (his pro stock is very close to it and same mold)
#2 Rafa APD original heavy spec
#3 RF97 (solid and great just least favorite of the 3 GOATS frames)
I believe Babolat will price at around USD 300 range.
Yes
@@user-fu5ee6mh2z $329 for the Origin and $299 for the Rafa version, those prices are incredible.
@@ALC-bd1pm Anyway, I'll still buy it, the origin edition is really amazing
Could you compare the spec with Rafa racket that you have?... is it the same the number of swing weight?
Makes sense if it is similar. Rafa apparently puts 2 layers of lead under his entire head guard, making it extremely head heavy
Should come with a warning - elbows 🤷♂️
Hope this is not another Bud Light beer
More things on my racquetstobuy list
Babolat Pure Aero berry edition
I started playing with this racket. I wonder why I have a lot of men's friend requests on social media now 🤔
Even Rafa couldn’t stick with this paint job 😂
Because he already knew he's gonna withdraw early. He needs to be on the court to advertise this racquet. So he dropped it first until he comes back
Is there lead tape under the grommets ?
No
Looks like a music video nightmare. 😂
Rafa playing now. His racket looks more purple
No dampner ?
It’s a paddlepop.
the only way i could describe this guy is as the customgrow420 of tennis...
No way Nadal is using 375 swingweight. It should be 350ish. I’m sure this is the usual poor QC by Babolat.
IIRC Nadal uses a swingweight of minimum 360, tho I agree with you that 375 is ridiculous
Nope, in 2018 Nadal up his swingweight from 360 to 370.
@@alkathorat2859 source?
@@ryanyimsize
Uncle Tony interview or something they added weight at 12o clock.
Racquet for all days I see kek
I’m all for cool racquet colors - I even liked the orange creamsicle radical and love the avocado extreme mp - but this racquet design is ugly beyond. Not sure what they were thinking with this mix of colors! I’d consider buying this for fun to have a racquet with nadals specs to tool around with from time to time, but hard to justify that with the price and especially with how nasty it looks 🤪
I would not buy a racquet with that colorway! I presume Rafa's racquet is also very stiff. Do you know the RA?
What a coincidence, Roger uses as similar weight racquet C:
Roger’s racquet is actually quite a bit heavier at around 366g but it’s very headlight, making it easier to swing around than Rafa’s racket
Roger racket is way more people friendly with hybrid setup half of the highschool player could not swing or rally with nadal racket using dead poly.
warwinka uses even higher weight racket than both of them.
@@ajinkyathorat7502
Majority of the competitive highschoolers use full bed poly, commonly being alu power, tourbite, hyper g and rpm blast.
While I agree with you that Rafa’s racket is much harder to use than Roger’s, Roger’s racket is not people friendly either. Super low powered unforgiving frame with a tiny sweet spot, there’s a reason why 99% of the pros don’t use a similar racket or similar spec.
Skip to 3:00
Cotton Candy meets Banana!!!
Is this racquet a troll? People laughed at club players using the RF97, but a 375sw??? No doubt it will sell though.
the old one looks better
Prepare for the onslaught of returns like the RF 🤣
Roger fedrer could not return fly without natural gut. He is to weak and skinny🤣
RA stiff?
Returns of the racket cause its too demanding
@@ajinkyathorat7502 huh? Federer is actually stronger than most tennis players, especially his legs (where most of the power comes from) and forearms
@@ajinkyathorat7502 Lol you havent seen a good up close view of Federer he has huge chest and shoulders guy is very strong. Plus theres a vid of young Federer in 20s doing very intense weights and such
12 oz dead with craazy swingweight.
They actually did it and not some watered down version. Call me impressed.
Nadals rackets look more purple
Come on Harry!, you are streching it too far, Murrays racquet was 379 swing weight and you did not made even half as much scandal
375 sw …. Never ear this score
why is he calling him Ching instead of Chien
this is a novelty racquet. I would imagine even college players wouldn't play with this.
Too bad racquets these days are ridiculously overpriced. Especially babolats
They went from one of the coolest paint job to literally the worst paint.
Yah, they worked with Rafa for the specs, however, whomever came up with the colour scheme should be fired!
It doesn't make any sense to sell a racket with pro specs. Your average tennis club player is going to get hurt swinging that thing. Specially kids that follow Rafa.
К реальной ракетке Рафы никакого отношения не имеет!! Всем известно что у него 312гр. без струны.и нет такого RDC..
Guys do not buy this racket if you are not at least a pro level with excellent technique and above average fitness. It sounds good on paper but this one will destroy your wrist, elbow or/and shoulder in the long run if you are not properly trained and have flawless technique.
I agree, better get a racquet that is more forgiving on the arm. This racquet does require exceptional technique.
This racquet will definitely destroy your body unless you weight lift regularly and strong... And young... Annddddd at least rated a 5.0 minimum
What a shame they went with that paint job 🙄😆
Looks like a marketing disaster.
The specs sound very appealing to me. But what a horrible paintjob; it looks like a vandalized public toilet!
Amazing, but this candy rainbow color is ugly as shit. They managed to do the best looking racquet with the Rafa 2021, this is the opposite.
Racquet looks like what an 8 year old girl would love to buy... LOL
Racket looks like it is for 8 year old girl but with the swingweight of 375 it is only suitable for muscular athlete like Nadal, talk about poor design choice.
@@stanleyextra2812 Literally, 375 SW is too much for basically everyone except nadal... the joke is ppl will buy it anyway, lmao!
Good lord, that’s ugly.
Lgbtq+ aero 🤣🤣
I think color is ugly and all over the place😢
People will be buying it bc of the insane swing weight
Colores sucks
Why would anyone be interested in trying to swing Rafa’s spec racket unless you’re looking to ruin your game? This racket is for 1% of the players out there. I’ll enjoy your video but I have zero interest in trying to delude myself into thinking I could actually play well with that thing. No one viewing this page can swing a 375 SW racket with any consistency.
More like 0.01% 😂
