Video overview
The Babolat Technical Viper Soft 3.0 is a power racket for advanced players who want head-heavy attack with more comfort and feel than most diamond shapes deliver.
- Shape: Diamond, with the mass and sweet spot high in the head for maximum power in attack.
- Level: Suits advanced players.
- Face: Carbon, firmer and more direct, turning your swing speed straight into ball speed.
- Balance: High, head heavy, putting real weight behind your smashes.
- Weight: 365-380g, a sturdier build with more stability and weight behind the ball.
- Surface: A rough finish grips the ball, making slice and topspin easier to add.
- Standout: The central reinforced bar through the heart reduces frame twist during off-centre hits, keeping the racket stable when you swing hard.
- Value: Below advanced level, the high balance and 365–380 g weight will tire your arm and cost you more errors than the extra power is worth.
- Diamond shape with high balance: Weight is pushed into the head, giving you more leverage on smashes and deep drives. You generate extra power from the same swing, but you need the timing and arm strength to control it.
- Soft carbon twill surface: Carbon fibre woven in a softer twill pattern. It flexes slightly more on impact than hard carbon, reducing vibration and giving you better feel on volleys and drop shots without sacrificing frame stiffness.
- Black EVA core: Lower-density foam that absorbs more shock than harder EVA. It blends power with a forgiving, comfortable strike, making long sessions less punishing on your elbow.
- Dynamic Stability System: A reinforced central bar through the bridge of the racket. It stops the frame twisting when you hit off-centre, keeping your shots stable and reducing the strain that comes from compensating for a wobbly racket.
- 3D Spin rough surface: Textured sandpaper finish that grips the ball longer. You can load more spin onto angled volleys and kick smashes without changing your swing.
- Vibrasorb System: Dampening technology that filters out harsh vibrations before they reach your hand. Each hit feels cleaner and your arm stays fresher through the third set.
- Longer handle: Extended grip length gives you room for two-handed backhands and extra leverage on overhead smashes. More reach, more whip.
The technical viper is a special model for attacking players. Ideal for the smash, vibora and attacking net play. You can really hurt your opponents and it is a lot of fun to play with.

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.
