What the Radical 12K 3.0 is like

Padelful's scores for it are 7.8 for power, 8.5 for control, 8.6 for rebound, 8.4 for manoeuvrability and 9.1 for sweet spot, with an overall 8.5 and a medium feel. Those are Padelful's scores, not ours. It describes the balance as head-leaning and good for overheads without feeling head-heavy.

That makes it the controlled all-rounder of the family. It gives away a little head speed to the Pro 2.0 and the Evo Pro and takes the biggest sweet spot in exchange.

Table of Padelful scores for the Vibora Black Mamba Radical 12K 3.0, Pro 2.0 and Evo Pro Black: power 7.8, 8.0 and 7.1, control 8.5, 8.4 and 7.4, sweet spot 9.1, 8.9 and 8.8

Shape, weight and the Yarara Radical

Padelful and Padelproshop call the head a teardrop, Stringers World calls it a hybrid, and our catalogue also tags it as a hybrid. Weights are 360 to 375 g on Padelful and 350 to 370 g on Stringers World, and balance is head-leaning on one and even on the other.

Some retailers call this racket the Yarara Radical, though Padelful and Padelproshop list a separate Yarara Radical 12K page. Our Yarara Radical 12K 3.0 is a separate listing, so check which one you want.

Table of where sellers differ on the Vibora Black Mamba Radical 12K 3.0: teardrop or hybrid shape, 360-375 or 350-370 g and head-leaning or even balance, with 12K carbon face and laminated EVA core

Radical 12K 3.0 or another Black Mamba

The Black Mamba Pro 2.0 has more bite and a quicker head, the round Black Mamba Evo Pro is the forgiving, fast one, and the King Cobra Technic is the diamond. The hybrid Vibora Titan 12K sits between them. For other 12K teardrops, our teardrop padel rackets page has more.
