Counter Viper

The control-focused member of Babolat's Viper family. A rounder shape and softer feel favour defence, blocking and precision, giving intermediate and advanced players a comfortable, manageable frame within the Viper range.

The Babolat Counter Viper 2025 is the control-oriented option in Babolat's Viper family, designed for players who counter, defend and place the ball rather than overpower it. Its rounder head shape and more centred balance produce a larger sweet spot and easier handling than the attacking Technical Viper, while a softer-leaning feel improves comfort and touch. Carbon construction keeps the surface responsive enough to redirect pace on blocks and volleys. It suits intermediate and advanced players who want a manageable, forgiving frame that rewards consistency and positioning, and it complements the Viper line by covering the control end of the spectrum. For players who value defence and precision over raw power, it is a sensible, comfortable choice.
