Our impression
Juan Lebrón's signature racket, going back to the original Viper carbon shape of his most dominant era. Brutal power on smashes and net attacks with a generous sweet spot for a hard diamond racket, but it demands clean technique in defence.
At 370 g, it is heavier than three quarters of all models in our comparison: that puts mass behind the ball and adds stability against hard shots, but costs reaction speed at the net. Head shape Diamond means: mass high up, a small, high sweet spot – maximum power, but less margin on off-centre hits than round and teardrop; the high balance puts the mass to work on the smash, but puts more strain on the arm. The hard core gives direct feedback on clean contact but is less forgiving. With power 9 and control 6 out of 10, it is clearly built for power.
With a forgiveness rating of 2.1 out of 10, it is less forgiving than 74% of the diamond-shaped rackets in our comparison. Of the 3 versions of the Babolat Technical Viper in our comparison, this is the most expensive (€179). 11 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €179 to €313.95 – a €135 difference for the same model.
