Babolat Viper Soft Juan Lebrón 3.0
Babolat · Diamond · PowerJuan Lebrón's own softer alternative to his signature Viper above — a 94/88 power-control balance in the same Black EVA head-heavy diamond, carrying the 2026 Lebrón collection styling. Comfort 85 and tolerance 94 both clear the standard Viper JL's 62/61 by some distance, the pick for signature-line fans who don't want the flagship's harshest hit.
Babolat invented the modern tennis string in 1875. Their padel range inherits the same engineering DNA: the Veron and Counter lines are built around precise feel and a consistent sweet spot.
Babolat's lines, at a glance
Three characters on one platform: Air is the light, fast version for quick hands at net; Technical is the precision-tuned control build; Counter leans control-attack, the middle ground. Same diamond head and advanced-level DNA across all three — the name tells you which trade-off you're making.
