Padel racket Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 2026

The reinvented attacking racket

Discover the new Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 2026, a racket designed for attacking players seeking power, control and comfort.

Its predominantly black design, enhanced with yellow and white accents, gives it a dynamic, modern look on court.

With its round shape, this racket offers excellent control and an enlarged sweet spot, ideal for precise, consistent shots, even on off-centre impacts.

Thanks to its 3K carbon frame, this model ensures remarkable strength while offering the responsiveness needed to generate power effortlessly.

This racket also incorporates an X-EVA core, a multi-layer foam that provides the perfect balance between explosiveness on smashes and comfort on slower shots.

Equipped with the Vibrasorb System², it filters vibrations from the core to the handle to effectively protect your arm against fatigue and injury.

It also features the Hole Pattern System, which optimises hole distribution to increase precision and maximise energy transfer.

The racket surface uses 3D Spin+ technology, which combines raised textures and a sandblasted finish to dramatically enhance spin.

Finally, this model benefits from the Smart Butt Cap, an ingenious system that allows you to remove and wash your wrist strap for impeccable everyday hygiene.
