BABOLAT COUNTER VIPER TESTER

The Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 2026 is designed for players who win points by outlasting, outthinking, and outplacing their opponents. Played by Coki Nieto, this racket is made for those who turn defence into control and control into victory.

Its construction is built around precision and stability, allowing players to absorb pace and redirect the ball exactly where they want it. The woven carbon surface provides a clean, responsive touch, giving accurate feedback on every shot while maintaining enough explosiveness to punish short balls.

The X-EVA sandwich core, made of three EVA layers, adapts to different game situations. Firmer outer layers deliver controlled power when accelerating through the ball, while the softer inner layer increases comfort and forgiveness during defensive play and extended rallies.

With SMAC technology, elastomers integrated into the carbon structure and core significantly reduce vibrations, improving comfort and stability on repeated impacts. The optimised hole pattern enhances shot precision and power transmission, while the rough, textured surface allows players to apply spin and margin when building the point.

The Counter Viper is a racket for players who remain composed under pressure and slowly dismantle their opponent’s game with intelligence and precision.
