Children dream of becoming like their idol. The greatest players are an example both on the pitch and in real life. Babolat offers to under 12s, the Junior version of the Viper, the Pala de Juan Lebron. An adapted version to discover and improve at padel.

So here is the Babolat Viper Junior, the pala of Juan Lebron, young version.

The bet of Babolat was to offer children under 12 a pala capable of helping beginners and improving intermediate level children.

With its carbon frame, this pala is the little sister of the Lebron Viper. Rigid and solid, its frame is only 34mm in size against 38 in adults, which makes it lighter and more manageable with its weight of 300 grams.

To help children control the ball, the foam used is the Eva Soft, flexible but resistant. Finally, the surface is fiberglass, solid but elastic to facilitate learning.

Little more than Babolat. So that children can enjoy this pala as long as possible, Babolat decided to give the Viper Junior the diamond shape. This form will allow the most gifted to hit the ball with violence as Juan Lebron does so well.

Price: € 50
