Babolat Padel Rackets

Babolat holds a genuinely unusual distinction: founded in Lyon in 1875, it is the oldest racquet sports company in the world and remains family-owned. The brand entered padel over two decades ago and built its elite credibility around Juan Lebrón, who reached world No. 1 in 2019 using a Babolat Viper Carbon. Their Viper and Veron series are engineered for attacking, aggressive play, and a dedicated Babolat Studio near Barcelona handles padel R&D and limited-run production. The combination of heritage, independence and top-level results gives Babolat a weight that newer brands simply can't replicate.
