“The Babolat Counter Viper 2026 2.6 is a control-first diamond with a 270 mm balance point that keeps the weight from feeling oppressive while still providing reliable head feel. At 87 control, shot placement is accurate and repeatable for advanced players who construct their points carefully. Power at 77 is enough to threaten but won't overpower anyone. The carbon-fibreglass face and EVA foam core deliver a composed, connected response. PRR score: 86/100.”
“The Shark is Black Crown's soft-cored, control-first companion to the Wolf, pairing an EVA Soft core with a plain fibreglass face for a comfortable, forgiving strike at accessible pricing.”
