Description
Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 Padel Racket
The Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 Padel Racket is designed for advanced players who love to play with patience, absorb their opponent’s attacks, and strike back with precision and power. If you prefer to control the point, wait for the right opportunity, and counter with powerful smashes or well-placed volleys, this racket is perfect for you.
With its round shape, the Counter Viper offers a large sweet spot, making it easier to return difficult shots with accuracy. The X-EVA core provides explosive power when you accelerate, while the 3D Spin+ surface helps you add spin to keep opponents off balance.
Thanks to the Vibrasorb System, you’ll also experience fewer vibrations, meaning more comfort and reduced arm strain during long, intense rallies.

How can I guarantee next day delivery?
Order any in-stock item before our daily cut-off and we'll dispatch it the same day on a next day delivery service, free of charge. Everything listed as in stock is sitting in our warehouse ready to go, so there's no waiting on suppliers. Orders placed after the cut-off, on weekends or on bank holidays are dispatched the next working day. If you need something for a specific date, message us before ordering and we'll confirm it'll make it in time.
How do I choose the right padel racket for my skill level and playing style?
Start with your level, then your style. As a rough guide: round rackets have a big sweet spot and maximum control, ideal for beginners and defensive players. Teardrop rackets balance power and control, perfect for most intermediate players. Diamond rackets are power-focused with a smaller sweet spot, best for advanced, aggressive players. The quickest way to narrow it down is our Racket Quiz, answer a few questions about your level, style and budget and it'll recommend the best options currently in stock. You can also check out our YouTube channel where we review and test rackets on court, or just message us on WhatsApp and we'll recommend one personally.
