“The Babolat Counter Vertuo 2.6 2026 is an even-balance round frame at 360 g with a Black EVA core and fibreglass face, built for intermediate players who want a control-first, forgiving option. Control at 79 leads alongside maneuverability at 78. Tolerance at 77 and comfort at 76 confirm a forgiving, arm-friendly character. Power at 71 is the honest trade-off. Our score: 80/100.”
“The Viper Soft Juan Lebrón 3.0 takes the same 365g Black EVA formula that already works on the Technical Viper Soft and wraps it in Juan Lebrón's signature diamond shell. Power eases back from the standard Viper JL's tour-level peak to a still-strong 82, and in exchange control and comfort both climb into the high 70s/80s — a genuinely balanced racket rather than a compromise. Maneuverability improves too, so the head-heavy diamond feels less punishing to hustle at net. The catch is coverage: it is stocked at a single retailer so far, and priced at parity with the far more aggressive standard Viper JL, so this is not the discount play the Technical Soft is.”
