The rows in bold are where they differ. They match on shape, face, built for, power, control, lighter edition and women's edition.

The Gravity Motion

Built around comfort. If your elbow has ever complained, this is the racket the physios point at.

Against the Counter Viper: 5 g lighter, kinder to the arm, cheaper.

Padel Market

The Counter Viper

The control member of the Viper family. Manoeuvrable, precise, and it still has enough in the overhead to finish a short lob.

Against the Gravity Motion: 5 g heavier, harder on the arm, dearer.
