Precision and power, signed Babolat
With the Counter Viper 2025, Babolat continues to push the boundaries between technology and performance, delivering a racket that is as stylish as it is formidably effective.
This 2025 edition immediately catches the eye with its vibrant design combining geometric patterns with an electric yellow colourway.
Its round shape, combined with a low balance, is ideal for precise and controlled shots, even under pressure.
The frame is made of 3K carbon fibre, providing both robustness and flexibility to the racket. With a medium density, it guarantees excellent power return while maintaining sufficient flexibility for optimal playing comfort.
At the core of the racket, the multi-density X EVA foam adjusts every shot to the speed of the ball, offering great versatility while reducing unforced errors.
When it comes to spin, the 3D texture on the surface optimises grip on the balls, allowing you to generate precise and formidable spin.
The hole pattern, with varied sizes, widens the sweetspot, making the Counter Viper even more forgiving on off-centre hits.
The slightly extended grip provides a better hold, ideal for two-handed shots, while the interchangeable wrist strap, both hygienic and customisable, allows you to adjust the racket to your style.
Finally, to protect your joints, Babolat has built an advanced anti-vibration system directly into the heart of the racket. This feature significantly reduces impact and vibrations, ensuring long-lasting comfort during play.
Technologies integrated into the Babolat Counter Viper 2025 padel racket:
Holes Pattern System
This is the famous technology developed by Babolat that defines the distribution and above all the size of the holes. The goal? To optimise these elements for each padel racket in order to improve power transmission as well as shot precision
The core of the racket consists of a sandwich of 3 different EVA layers. The stiffer outer layers provide increased explosiveness on powerful shots, while the flexible inner layer offers more tolerance on slower shots.
3D Spin+
The combination of multiple reliefs on the racket"s surface with a rough finish gives more spin to the ball while offering better control.
3K Carbon
Featuring a 3K carbon frame, this material is durable in addition to providing excellent power return. You will be able to hit precise shots without risking elbow strain thanks to this medium-density carbon.
Smart Buttcap
For customisation and hygiene purposes, Babolat has made it possible to change the wrist strap in just a few seconds... Clever, isn't it?
Vibrasorb System²
An anti-vibration system located in the heart of the racket limits the transmission of impacts to the elbow for greater playing comfort.
