About Coki
Jorge "Coki" Nieto (born 1998, Madrid) is a Spanish professional and a steady fixture in the world top ten, ranked as high as No. 7. A left-side player, he built his name on relentless defense, retrieval and counter-attack — the identity behind his Babolat line. Partnered with Jon Sanz, he won the 2024 Premier Padel Finals over world No. 1s Tapia and Coello. The Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 is a control-biased pala: a round-to-hybrid head with a 3K carbon face and forgiving sweet spot, a head-heavy balance, and Babolat's three-layer X-EVA core for defense-into-offense power. Padel USA is an authorized retailer, so every racket ships genuine from the US.

What is Coki Nieto's playing style on the padel court?
Nieto plays the left side and is a classic counter-puncher. He absorbs pressure, retrieves relentlessly and reads the ball well, then turns scrambling defense into explosive counter-attacks from the back of the court — a gritty, consistent competitor rather than a pure power bomber.
Is the Babolat Counter Viper 2.6 a control or power racket?
It leans control. The round-to-hybrid head, 3K carbon face and large sweet spot keep it stable and forgiving, while the head-heavy balance and Babolat's three-layer X-EVA core add controlled pop — so you can defend safely and still punish counters.
Who should play with the Babolat Counter Viper 2.6?
It suits advanced and high-competition players who win by staying consistent, absorbing pressure and counter-attacking. If you favor a defense-into-offense game over simply out-hitting opponents, this racket fits that identity well.
What was Coki Nieto's biggest result with Jon Sanz?
Paired with fellow Spaniard Jon Sanz, Nieto won the 2024 Premier Padel Finals in Barcelona, saving match points to beat world No. 1s Agustin Tapia and Arturo Coello and reaching a career-high as a pair. Padel pairings rotate season to season.
What does the Counter Viper's X-EVA core do?
Babolat's X-EVA is a three-layer sandwich: firmer outer layers deliver controlled, repeatable power on the counter and the smash, while a softer inner layer adds comfort and forgiveness on defense. The grooved 3K carbon face adds bite for spin.
