Babolat Technical Viper 3.0

The Technical Viper 3.0 is the bluntest instrument in Babolat's range and makes no apology for it. Head-heavy, diamond, Black EVA behind a Carbon 3K face: swing hard and the ball leaves at 94-power pace, the highest tier we score. Everything else is the price of admission. Control 74 asks you to aim with your feet, comfort 62 makes it one of the harshest hits at tour level, and tolerance 61 turns mishits into nothing balls. Maneuverability 66 means late reactions at the net stay late. For a physically strong, technically clean attacker it is devastating. For anyone else it is a fast route to a sore elbow.

Extreme One Orlinski

This collaboration with sculptor Richard Orlinski keeps Head's Extreme line firmly power-first - a diamond shape, head-heavy balance, and a 12K carbon face over a Power Foam core built for genuine attacking output. Head's Auxetic technology adds extra pop and feel on hard contact, making this a serious frame for a player who already has the technique to control that kind of power.
