Babolat Padel Counter Viper (2024)

EXTREME POWER, EXTREME SPIN, AND COMFORT.

The Babolat Padel Counter Viper combines movement forgiveness with explosive power. Exhaust your opponents. Hit with more force. Win the point. Instant extreme power is ensured with the Viper 2024 range, thanks to the combination of a carbon surface (3K, 12K, and 16K) and the new X-Eva technology. This system is based on 2 stiffer exterior layers for explosiveness on strong shots, and a softer inside layer for more tolerance and comfort on slower shots. In addition to 3D Spin+ and a new anti-vibration system, this range features the Smart Buttcap technology, allowing players to customize the wrist strap of their padel racket, for more hygiene, comfort, and elegance.

Technologies:

• XEva: Sandwich construction of the core with 3 different EVA layers adapted to each racquet. An increased explosiveness on strong shots thanks to the 2 stiffer exterior layers while the softer inside layer provides more tolerance and comfort on slower shots.
• 3D Spin+ : Reliefs on the racquet surface combined with a rough finishing that allows to print even more spin to the ball and have a better control.
• 3K Carbon: Woven carbon fiber used on the surface of the racquet to give maximal explosiveness and precision.
• Holes Pattern System: Optimized distribution and size of holes for each racquet shape to boost power transmission and increase precision when returning shots.
• Vibrabsorb System: Better vibration absorption thanks to a new elastomer material integrated into the graphite of the racquet's heart that provides more comfort on each shot and reduces the risks of injury.
• Smart Buttcap: A versatile system that allows players to customize strap size or completely remove the wrist strap.
