Our impression
The Viper Soft is Juan Lebrón's more accessible attacking option: a 3K twill carbon face with a lower-density core replaces the stiffer standard set-up and softens the impact without losing the Viper line's attacking DNA. Tests confirm plenty of power along with much better control under pressure – making it accessible to a wider range of players than the hard standard Viper.
At 365 g, it is mid-range in our comparison – light enough for quick volleys, heavy enough to take hard balls with stability. 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 6 out of 10, it is clearly built for power.
With a forgiveness rating of 3.3 out of 10, it remains demanding, but it is more forgiving than 62% of the diamond-shaped rackets in our comparison. Of the 5 versions of the Babolat Viper in our comparison, this is the cheapest (€155.72). 8 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €155.72 to €269.95 – a €114 difference for the same model.
