The Babolat Viper Soft Juan Lebron 3.1 is the comfort version of Lebron's diamond power racket: a 38 mm head heavy frame with a Soft Carbon face, built for advanced attacking players who want the Viper's power with a gentler hit.
- 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: 355-375g, a middle-ground weight most players adapt to quickly.
- Surface: A rough finish grips the ball, making slice and topspin easier to add.
- Standout: Soft Carbon puts a carbon twill on the face that flexes slightly on contact, so you get the explosive power of a diamond frame without the board hard feel that puts people off the standard Viper.
- Value: At this price you are paying tour money for a tour racket, and it earns it if you attack from the net and strike cleanly. If you are intermediate, or you mostly defend, the Veron Juan Lebron 3.1 gives you the same shape with a more forgiving Carbon Flex face for £40 less. If you want the hardest hitting version and your arm can take it, the standard Viper Juan Lebron 3.1 is the one.
- Soft Carbon face: A carbon twill built into the striking surface. It flexes a touch more on contact than the standard Viper's face, so you keep the power of carbon with a gentler feel and less shock through the arm.
- Diamond shape, 38 mm: Weight and sweet spot pushed towards the top of the head. More leverage on smashes and viboras, less forgiveness on off centre hits. Built for attacking play.
- Dynamic Stability System: A reinforced central bar through the heart of the racket. Stiffens the frame so it twists less on impact, which means more stability, more power and better control.
- 3D Spin surface: Raised patterns on the face that grip the ball for more spin on slices, bandejas and kick smashes.
- Black EVA core: Medium density foam that gives a solid, explosive ball exit on full swings while keeping the contact from feeling harsh.
- Carbon frame: Full carbon hoop for stiffness and durability. Around 365g plus or minus 10g, head heavy balance.

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.
