Babolat Viper Soft Juan Lebrón 3.0 vs Bullpadel Vertex Comfort LTD Edition Juan Tello

“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.”

“A control-first diamond frame, the Bullpadel Vertex Comfort LTD Edition Juan Tello 2024 earns its 82 control score with a measured, precise character that rewards players who build points rather than force them. Tolerance at 76 and comfort at 76 are both solid, meaning the frame is more forgiving than most diamond shapes and easier on the arm through long exchanges. Power at 74 is honest: enough to threaten from the back, not enough to rely on brute force. PRR score: 83/100.”
