Babolat Counter Viper 2026 2.6 wins by 16 points
Babolat Counter Viper 2026 2.6 scores 86/100 against 70/100 for the Dunlop Strike. Its biggest edge is control (+15).
“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 Strike Green is Dunlop's 2022 control veteran: an even 375 g EVA build scoring control 72 with civil terms (comfort 71, tolerance 72) and honest handling (71). Power 64 states the patient brief. Face documentation is incomplete on survivors. Value 74 reflects four seasons of drift. The card remains a coherent, kind placement frame; the brand's current Nemesis Control and the benchmarks deliver the same character with fresher materials at similar money. Standard veteran guidance: genuine clearance or walk on. Inspect what survives.”
