Babolat Viper padel racket

The Viper series contains the best that Babolat has to offer. This is where the French brand's absolute top padel rackets are located and they are aimed at experienced and professional padel players. The Babolat Viper models are made with the highest quality materials and all of Babolat's best technologies to give you what Babolat itself describes as explosive power.

What rackets does the Babolat Viper series consist of?

The Viper series consists of the following padel rackets:

Babolat Counter Viper

Counter Viper is a world-class paddle racket for the defensive-oriented player who, through a low margin of error and great game intelligence, uses the racket's high tolerance and quality materials to counter attack the opponents. The round head shape with the sweetspot located lower in the head of the racket makes it suitable for defensive shots like lobs and chiquitas. Babolat has equipped the Counter Viper with a weight distribution towards the top of the racket head, which in conjunction with the hard core and carbon surface of the racket makes it extremely suitable for counter attacking when the opportunity arises and thus winning the initiative in the rallies.

Babolat Air Viper

The Air Viper is a sublime all-round racket for those with fast hands who seek to dominate the net and outmaneuver opponents with speed and explosive power. The racket is designed with a teardrop shape and neutral balancing, which gives it excellent overall playability in both offense and defense. It stands out in particular by virtue of its low weight of 355 grams being a top racket that is quick to handle. If you want to be fast in volleys at the net and in your overheads when lobbed at you, the Babolat Air Viper is an extremely solid choice.

Babolat Technical Viper

The Technical Viper is for the attacking padel player who has the technique to utilize the ultimate power and precision of the racket to decide rally after rally. With its diamond shape, head-heavy weight distribution and high concentration of carbon fibers, the attacking player gets an impact weapon out of this world. You're guaranteed great weight transfer in your overheads, and when you hit the ball in the sweetspot, you can look forward to both big and accurate smashes.

Advantages of the Babolat Viper 2023

The Babolat Viper 2023 padel rackets are tailor-made for the experienced player. The Viper models are relatively hard and rigid in construction, so your clean hits are rewarded with extra output. In other words, if you hit the ball well and consistently, the Viper series will undoubtedly pique your interest. Unlike Babolat's Vertuo and Veron padel rackets, the Viper series is constructed with X EVA foam in the core and a carbon surface, which results in a high output. We see, for example, several padel players with a background from tennis choose the Babolat Technical Viper racket due to its massive power and sweetspot placed high in the racket.

Babolat also has an eye for detail and has implemented several interesting features in the rackets, which you can read more about below.

The technology behind the Babolat Viper 2023 padel racket

Holes Pattern System

Optimized placement and size of the holes in relation to the specific head shape of the racket to increase weight transfer and precision in the stroke.

X EVA

The core is designed as a sandwich construction of 3 different layers of EVA foam. The two outer layers are stiffer for extra power, while the inner layer is softer to provide more tolerance and comfort on those shots where you take your foot off the ball.

Woven Carbon

The face is woven from carbon fibers to give you maximum impact power and precision.

3D Spin

The small textures in the surface combined with a rough finish provide even better control and grip on the ball.

Vibrasorb System

This technology is a new graphite elastomer material integrated into the heart of the bat. The technology reduces the vibrations in the bat and thus the risk of injury.

Smart Buttcap

New concept that allows you to adjust the size of the strap or remove it completely.
