We have already addressed this theme, the sensations with a racket are not the same when it is hot or cold. Thus, some players like Fernando Poggi prefer to use a pala for each season.

As he says in his immersion for Padel Spain, Fernando Poggi uses the racket Babolat Viper Carbon by Juan Lebron in summer. But in winter palas tend to stiffen with cold. Thus, the Argentine prefers a slightly softer racket, in order to have a slightly higher “salida de bola”, which seems to suit him better.

He therefore sets his sights on the Babolat Viper lite, which has a slightly softer foam, and which has the distinction of incorporating fiberglass on the sides, instead of carbon.

As this version is rather light (360g) for a player like Fernando Poggi, the giant does not hesitate to add weight in mind in order to be able to smash at full power. In the end, this racket, basically recommended for an advanced audience, perfect for a professional like Fernando Poggi. Juan Lebron, on the other hand, keeps his Viper Carbon, summer and winter!
