Babolat Veron 3.1 review

Babolat Veron 3.1 Review: The Lighter Lebrón Diamond

The Babolat Veron 3.1 shares the diamond shape and high balance of the Viper 3.1, but it is lighter and less stiff. The 2027 model weighs 360g and uses Carbon Flex, a mix of carbon and fibreglass.

A Black EVA core and 38mm profile complete the spec. This makes the Veron 3.1 a more forgiving way into Lebrón’s range.

How It Performs

The Veron 3.1 still has plenty of power, but it feels quicker than the Viper. The lighter weight helps in fast exchanges at the net.

Carbon Flex adds give to the face, so it is more comfortable on mishits. The trade off is a little less raw power on flat smashes.
