The Babolat Counter Vertuo 2.6 Padel Racket is designed for players who prioritise precision, comfort and controlled counter attacking play.

The Counter Vertuo 2.6 is built around a round shape and large sweet spot, helping provide a more forgiving hitting area for controlled, consistent ball contact. This suits players who like to defend patiently, keep the ball in play and turn an opponent's attack into an opportunity to counter.
The fibreglass composition provides a combination of power and comfort, creating a more accessible response without taking away from the racket's control focused character.
