Test programme:
We offer you the opportunity to test the Babolat Air Viper 2.6 2026 padel racket. This test model allows you to try playing with this racket before buying it. What better way to find out whether it is perfectly suited to your game?
This service is offered to you for a cost of €20 (with no additional delivery or return charges in mainland France), in exchange for a security deposit of €200.
Test programme terms:
1) You may test a maximum of two rackets per test session, for a period of 7 days*.
2) The cost per test racket is 20 euros. Shipping costs for delivery and return are included in this amount. You will only need to pay the security deposit, i.e. 200 euros. The 20-euro service fee will be deducted before the deposit is refunded.
3) The displayed price of 200 euros is A SECURITY DEPOSIT, which will be refunded to you, less the 20 euros (service fee), as soon as the test racket is returned to our warehouse in the same condition and by the agreed date.
No refund will be granted in the event of a late and unreported return.
Warning : payment of the security deposit for a test racket does not in any way mean that the racket belongs to you.
Warning : we reserve the right not to refund the security deposit if the racket is returned to us broken or in poor condition**.
4) For your first order, please send us the following supporting documents: a copy of your identity document and proof of address, to the following email address: contact@esprit-padel-shop.com labelling your submission DOCUMENTS - TEST PROGRAMME - SURNAME - FIRST NAME***.
5) Receive your racket directly at home or at the collection point of your choice. Please note that additional charges may apply for deliveries outside mainland France.
6) You will find the return label to attach to the parcel in your package. We ask you to take particular care when packaging the racket so that it reaches us in the best possible condition.
7) If the test racket is not returned, a formal notice will be sent to you requesting that you rectify the situation. If the racket is not returned to us within the agreed period, we will retain your security deposit and ask you to pay the difference between it and the price of the new racket (price displayed on the ESPRIT PADEL SHOP website).
* Excluding transport time
** Please note that, to allow us to assess the condition of the racket, photos will be taken and retained before dispatch, and compared with the returned product.
