Counter Viper vs Air Viper for defense?
Counter Viper = defensive baseline precision (round + 365g). Air Viper = net aggression (drop + 355g). Perfect defensive choice.
3K Carbon vs 16K Carbon difference?
3K = 3,000 filaments (forgiving + spin-focused). 16K = 16,000 filaments (rigid + power-focused). Counter Viper precision-optimized.
X-E.V.A. vs standard EVA?
X-E.V.A. 3-Layer = soft inner + stiff outer layers. Adapts to shot speed vs uniform EVA response.
365g too heavy for maneuverability?
No! "easy handling despite higher balance"—professional engineering balances mass + swing speed.
