Staff Review:
At tennisnuts, having tested out the new Babolat Technical Viper, have found that it offers immense attacking power! With the new rough surface, it is more of a gritty face rather than rough, you can definitely add more spin to your game. The padel racket is very top-heavy meaning, the weight is distributed towards the top of the racket, hence delivering that attacking power. The sweetspot is also located in the top of the padel racket, so if you miss hit your shots, you may find it challenging to use.
Who should buy the Babolat Technical Viper?
Players that either need more power or who want to double down on it and be more aggressive. If you have good technique and can control your shots consistently, and you tend to be the aggressor in the game, then we would highly recommend this padel racket.
