Our impression
The Technical Viper Soft combines the attacking DNA of the Viper line with a softer Soft Carbon hitting face and a Black EVA core: plenty of ball exit, a sweet spot that's forgiving for the power class and much less hardness on the arm. In tests it scores almost everywhere: strong power with good defence and high comfort at the same time.
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 medium-hard core balances feedback and comfort. With power 8 and control 5 out of 10, it is clearly built for power.
With a forgiveness rating of 2.9 out of 10, it is in the middle of the field among the diamond-shaped rackets in our comparison. Of the 3 versions of the Babolat Technical Viper in our comparison, this is the cheapest (€144.90). 12 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €144.90 to €280 – a €135 difference for the same model.
