Babolat Counter Viper 2.6
De Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 is een padelracket dat is ontwikkeld voor gevorderde tot pro spelers die hun spel baseren op controle, stabiliteit en counterend spel, maar daarbij wel een hard en direct blad willen. Dit model is de meest veeleisende uitvoering binnen de Counter-lijn en richt zich op spelers die vanuit een solide verdediging het punt willen overnemen en beslissen met precisie en timing.
De Counter Viper 2.6 is geen comfortabel of vergevingsgezind racket. Het is een technisch wedstrijdracket dat maximale controle combineert met een zeer directe respons.
Voor welk type speler is dit racket geschikt
De Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 is vooral geschikt voor rechterkantspelers op gevorderd tot pro niveau die het spel willen lezen, vertragen en vervolgens versnellen op het juiste moment. Spelers die sterk zijn in rally’s, verdedigend spel, lobs en geplaatste volleys halen het maximale uit dit racket.
Daarnaast kan dit racket ook gebruikt worden door linkerkantspelers met een controlerende of allround speelstijl, die niet afhankelijk zijn van smashpower maar wel een hard en precies blad zoeken. Voor spelers die comfort of foutvergevingsgezindheid prioriteit geven, is dit model minder geschikt.
Belangrijkste eigenschappen
De ronde tot licht hybride vorm zorgt voor een grote en centraal geplaatste sweetspot, wat helpt bij controle en stabiliteit, zelfs bij hoge balsnelheden. De balans ligt midden, wat het racket stabiel houdt en goed hanteerbaar maakt in verdedigende situaties.
Het slagvlak is opgebouwd uit volledig carbon en heeft een hard bladgevoel. Het blad is stijf, direct en weinig vergevingsgezind. Dit zorgt voor maximale precisie en controle bij zuiver contact, maar vraagt om een goed ontwikkelde techniek.
De kern bestaat uit stug EVA-rubber, wat de directe en krachtige respons versterkt. Trillingsdemping is functioneel aanwezig, maar comfort is duidelijk ondergeschikt aan prestaties.
Speelgevoel en prestaties
Op de baan voelt de Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 zeer stabiel, strak en uiterst precies aan. In verdedigende situaties speel je met veel vertrouwen en controle, terwijl je bij het versnellen maximale feedback en voorspelbaarheid ervaart. Het racket vergeeft weinig fouten, maar beloont zuiver spel met controle en consistentie op hoog niveau.
De Counter Viper 2.6 is daarmee een duidelijke keuze voor spelers die een hard controleracket zoeken om het spel te domineren vanuit positie, timing en precisie, binnen het high-performance assortiment van Babolat.
