Babolat Counter Viper 2.5 is the optimal solution for the patient padel player who seeks the ideal balance between control and precision in defense, while still having enough power to counterattack when the opportunity arises.
This updated 2025 model builds on the success of the series and offers a head-heavy weight distribution, making it easier to generate speed in your shots.
Another really exciting new feature of the 2.5 model is the sandpaper-like surface!
The racket's hybrid head shape balances control and all-round properties, making it the most control-oriented racket in the Viper series. At the same time, it offers more power than many traditional control rackets, making it ideal for players who want versatility.
The surface of the Counter Viper 2.5 is made from 3K carbon fibers, providing the perfect combination of power and flexibility. Babolat’s 3D Spin technology ensures you have optimal grip and spin when hitting the ball, while the Vibrasorb system reduces vibrations, thereby protecting your arm during play. The racket also features a convenient interchangeable wrist strap that can be replaced or removed as needed.
The Counter Viper stands out from the Vertuo and Veron series by having a pure carbon surface and a core with three layers of EVA foam. This combination makes the Viper series the most powerful and precise in Babolat’s range. However, it requires you to strike the ball accurately and consistently to get the most out of the racket.
With a weight of 365 grams, the Babolat Counter Viper 2.5 offers the technically skilled and patient player both precision and power, allowing you to dominate the game and easily transition from defense to attack.

Technologies in the Babolat Counter Viper 2.5
Holes Pattern System
Optimized placement and size of the holes relative to the racket’s specific head shape to increase weight transfer and precision in shots.
X EVA
The core is designed as a sandwich construction of three 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 in slower shots.
Woven Carbon
The surface is woven with carbon fibers to give you maximum power and precision.
3D Spin
The small textures on the surface, combined with a rough finish, provide even better control and grip on the ball.
Vibrasorb System
This technology involves a new elastomer material in graphite, integrated into the heart of the racket. It reduces vibrations in the shot, thereby minimizing the risk of injury.
Smart Buttcap
A new concept that allows you to adjust the size of the strap or remove it entirely.

3 tips to extend the lifespan of your padel racket
1. Use a frame protector
Fit a frame protector to your racket to minimise damage from contact with the court glass or metal mesh. It is a simple addition that may not look like much, but it can help extend the life of your racket by protecting it from knocks and scratches.
2. Avoid extreme temperatures
Store your racket at a stable room temperature. Over time, both very high and very low temperatures can weaken the foam in the racket core and reduce performance. Avoid leaving your racket in places such as a cold car boot or close to a hot radiator.
3. Protect your racket during transport
Keep your racket in a bag or cover to protect it from scratches, dirt and knocks. This is especially important during transport or storage between matches, as proper storage helps reduce wear and tear.
3 tips to get the most out of your padel racket
1. Choose the right racket for your level and playing style
Choose a racket that matches your level and playing style. New players may benefit from a racket with a softer face and a large sweetspot, while more experienced players often prefer a stiffer construction with more emphasis on precision or power.
2. Replace your overgrip regularly
Replacing your overgrip regularly helps maintain a fresh grip and improves comfort and control. A worn grip can cause the racket to slip in your hand and put extra strain on your wrist and forearm during play.
3. Upgrade your racket when the time is right
Over time, the foam in the racket core loses its elasticity and performance. This means you will no longer get the same response from your shots. If you have been using the same racket for several seasons or notice a drop in its performance, it is a sign that it is time to invest in a new one.
