Babolat Evo Aero Gen2 2026 (275g) racket

Babolat Evo Aero Gen2 racket: ultimate comfort and easier spin

The number one selling point of this model is its unique comfort. To achieve it, Babolat has built in its patented Air Handle Touch (AHT) technology. Placed directly in the handle, it absorbs shocks and dampens vibrations. The addition of Evo Flax technology (natural flax fibres built into key points of the frame) completes the feel with a softer touch and effectively protects your joints on every shot.

On court, the Evo Aero Gen2 stands out for its controlled power and easier spin. Its slightly enlarged 660 cm² head size brings the forgiveness you need, while the 275 g graphite frame (fitted with Spin Alpha technology and its aerodynamic sections) makes it easy to generate rotation on the ball (Spin Easy). Combined with the Woofer System and a 16x19 string pattern, the racket gives an excellent trampoline effect for long, topspin-laden and safe shots.

Who is it for?

The Babolat Evo Aero Gen2 is aimed at regular players (intermediate to advanced level) who want a racket that is easy to play, comfortable on the arm and geared towards spin. It is an excellent choice for club players who want to progress technically without putting up with the stiffness of a frame built 100% for competition.

The expert's view: The "Evo" range is a real success in bridging the gap between recreational play and pure competition. At 275 g, this racket offers a very good compromise between manoeuvrability and stability. What stands out on this Gen2 is the use of flax fibres (Evo Flax) and the damping in the handle (Air Handle Touch): the drop in perceived stiffness (from 64 RA to 61 RA thanks to the system) is really noticeable on impact. It is a very "soft" racket to play with, perfect for hitting safe topspin thanks to Spin Alpha. Still undecided?
