Babolat Counter Viper 2026 2.6 wins by 10 points
Babolat Counter Viper 2026 2.6 scores 86/100 against 76/100 for the Head Gravity Elite. 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 Head Gravity Elite is defined by its accessible, control-oriented feel built around a round-to-teardrop hybrid shape that prioritizes consistency and touch over raw aggression. The softer EVA foam core and mid-range flex make it genuinely arm-friendly across long sessions, rewarding players who work the ball rather than blast it. Intermediate to advanced club players transitioning from tennis or seeking a reliable all-court option will appreciate its predictability, though competitive players chasing punch and pop may find it underwhelming for the price bracket it typically occupies.”
