In other words, a counter striker. Be a COUNTER STRIKER - wear out your opponents before finishing off the ball to win the point.

Features:
EXPLOSIVE POWER - You wanted more power, and we've given you explosiveness. Experience maximum intensity with a carbon surface combined with X-EVA technology that delivers unprecedented explosive power. Make every shot count and outperform your opponents.
TOLERANCE - Forgiveness is key. That's why this racquet features a shovel shape with a larger sweet spot. Get ready to return every ball—even the most challenging ones—to master the game again.
COMFORT - Padel is first and foremost a game that you should be able to play without any worries. Babolat knows that a stiff racquet can cause discomfort in the arms of some players. Therefore, their R&D team has worked to reduce the risk of injury. The new VIBRABSORB SYSTEM² technology, Powered by SMAC, provides optimal vibration dampening thanks to a combination of elastomers integrated into the carbon fibers at the core and the handle of the racquet.
