Description from manufacturer
Vertuo is designed for the player who seeks a lightweight racquet but demands the highest quality in its material. Vertuo is designed with the latest technologies, such as:
New feature: Improved built-in damping system for reduced risk of injury
New feature: Grooved surface for extra spin
New feature: Replaceable wrist strap
A soft hitting surface and lightweight are important characteristics for a lightweight racquet. Babolat's Vertuo series is the perfect choice for the player who wants a lightweight racquet that, thanks to a soft hitting surface, provides easy access to speed.
Vertuo Counter has a round shape and the largest sweetspot among the models in the Vertuo series. An excellent choice for beginners and recreational players in padel who need a forgiving racquet in their hands.
VibraSorb
Babolat has previously implemented a damping system to minimize vibrations in the racquet that can lead to injury. With the new updated VibraSorb System2, vibrations are further reduced to provide more feel, extended comfort, and less shock in the hits. The more you feel the ball, the better you can control it.
3D+
Unlike before, Vertuo now has a grooved pattern on the hitting surface. With 3D Spin, the player gets more grip on the ball and extended spin.
SOFT FIBER
Vertuo Counter has a hitting surface made of soft fiberglass. With a softer hitting surface, the player gains access to a larger sweetspot, where even mishits gain extra speed in the hits.
HPS
Like previous models from Babolat, Vertuo Air is designed with HPS Technology. Hole Pattern System provides more speed and control by adapting the drilled holes in the racquet to the racquet's shape and sweetspot. This provides more power in the hits for more speed and more grip on the ball for extended spin.
SMART BUTTCAP
Another new feature is the ability to remove and replace the wrist strap on the racquet. Whether you want to change the color or put it in the washing machine, it takes only a few seconds to remove or attach a new one.

"Tommaso", Man 25 year
Level: amateur
As a right-handed player who attacks often, I find this racket very good for the defensive phase but not very good for attacking. Furthermore, I find it a bit light.

I am relatively satisfied with my racket that I have, but for the most part, I find it difficult to control where I hit the ball.
