Precision We know that placing the ball exactly where you want it is essential for your Padel game. That’s why the Counter Viper is your best ally. Its round shape and wide sweet spot give you the control you need to set up each point with strategy and to overcome your opponent with precision. With our innovative Holes Pattern System, the holes are strategically distributed to optimize the force of impact and to ensure more precise shots, by evenly distributing the energy on every shot. Aim with confidence and always hit the mark! High Responsiveness Controlling the game and standing out as a true COUNTER PLAYER requires responsiveness and precision. The Counter Viper combines both of these qualities, offering extreme power thanks to the reactive capacity of its 3K Carbon, which optimizes the speed of response on every shot. This technology, combined with the X-EVA rubber core, allows the perfect balance between dynamism and control. This racquet is ideal for strategic players who like to turn defense into a decisive attack, making it the best option for those who want precision without sacrificing power. Set up the point and win it with power! Comfort Padel, above all, is a sport designed to be enjoyed without worries. However, we are aware that some racquets are so stiff that they can cause discomfort in the arm, affecting the playing experience. To address this need, our R&D team has developed an innovative solution: VIBRABSORB SYSTEM² Technology, Powered by SMAC. This advanced technology optimizes vibration absorption thanks to a specific combination of elastomers strategically integrated into the carbon fibers, in the core and the handle of the racquet. This design significantly reduces the vibrations generated with each shot, for greater comfort and helps to minimise the risk of injury, so you can enjoy the game with complete confidence and comfort.
