Babolat Viper Technical 2.5 - 2025.
The Technical Viper is a powerhouse and an iconic model, especially among hard-hitting and offensive players. The diamond-shaped head combined with a stiff carbon hitting surface gives a racket with extreme speed and weight in the strokes. The Technical Viper is suitable for advanced players who play aggressively and tough and primarily seek to decide the duel with smashes or harder hits.
The sweetspot is located high up in the racket, further from the body, where the swing speed in the racket is the greatest and can thus generate even more speed compared to other models. The hitting surface of the Technical Viper not only has a grooved pattern to grip the ball, but is made with a new, extra rough surface for a maximum spin effect. The stiff surface demands more from the player but at the same time provides speed, precision and a feeling that is maximum. The core of the racket is built up with Babolat's X-EVA Technology. Three different layers of EVA together provide an innovative and perfect effect. The two stiff outer layers provide extra speed on hard hits while a softer inner layer provides increased margin of error and comfort on looser hits.
Babolat has long worked with different types of damping systems in the racket to minimize vibrations in the racket that can lead to injuries. With Vibrasorb System2, vibrations are reduced to a maximum to provide more feel, increased comfort and less impact on the hits. The more you feel the ball, the better you can control it. The hitting surface is made of 100% carbon, 12K. The stiffer material provides maximum explosiveness and speed on the hits while the feel on the hits is superior to softer materials. All top models from Babolat are designed with HPS-Technology, which means that the holes in the racket are strategically placed and adapted to the shape of the racket. New coarse sandpaper surface that is extra rough and provides a perfect grip on the ball. This surface combined with the ribbed 3D pattern on the surface provides maximum spin on the shots.
