The Pure Drive Junior gives developing players the same balance of easy power and modern spin in a 25\" or 26\" length they can actually swing through. The construction is full graphite — not the cheaper composite found in beginner junior racquets — so improving 8-12 year olds get a frame that grows with their game rather than holding it back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it suits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pure Drive Junior 25 (240g) suits ages 8-10 (130-140cm); the Pure Drive Junior 26 (250g) suits ages 10-12 (140-150cm).
