Bullpadel 2027 Collection: Every New Racket Explained

Bullpadel is usually first out of the gate when the new season rolls around, and 2027 is no different. The Spanish brand has refreshed its entire Pro Line — ten rackets, each developed with a specific player on the professional circuit, from Paquito Navarro’s Hack to Bea González’s Pearl.

For padel players, that’s both exciting and slightly confusing. Ten new models, ten sets of specs, and a lot of marketing language to cut through. Here’s the full 2027 range, racket by racket, with the specs that actually matter and our honest take on who each one is really for.

Hack 05 — Paquito Navarro

The Hack gets a full redesign for 2027. Bullpadel calls it the most successful Hack they’ve made — lighter in feel, more aerodynamic, built for technical players who want to accelerate the rally without losing control. It debuts a white surface with black and red detailing.

Our take: This is the racket everyone will want to hold because of Paquito. The diamond shape and high balance mean it rewards fast arm speed — if your technique isn’t there yet, it’ll feel demanding.

XPLO 02 — Martín Di Nenno

If the Hack is a scalpel, the XPLO 02 is a hammer. Built with Di Nenno for raw, no-holds-barred power, it’s the most extreme racket in Bullpadel’s lab. A two-sided design — one dark, one with turquoise accents — reflects the intensity of its namesake.

Our take: Pure power. The ~27 cm balance is high even by attacking standards, so this one is for players who already know how to generate their own pace.

Elite 02 — Gemma Triay

The Elite 02 is a hybrid-shape racket developed with world number one Gemma Triay. The goal was balance: performance without losing elegance in handling. Lighter (350–360 g) and more maneuverable than the men’s power models, with a mid balance around 25.5 cm.

Our take: This is quietly one of the most versatile rackets in the range. If you play an all-court game and don’t want to commit to full attack or full defense, the hybrid shape is the sweet spot.

Vertex 05 — the best-seller

The Vertex is Bullpadel’s best-selling racket, and the fifth generation keeps the all-round DNA but adds a reinforced core and an optimized Curv:aKtiv system for better energy transfer and stability on impact. The result is a more responsive, more solid Vertex.

Our take: The Vertex 05 is the safe recommendation in the range. It adapts to defense, attack and transitions without a dramatic learning curve — which is exactly why it keeps selling.

Vertex 05 Geo — Pablo Cardona

The Geo is the most radical Vertex. Inspired by Pablo Cardona, it takes the all-round DNA into more offensive territory with a geometric shape that enlarges the hitting surface and shifts the balance toward attack. The bold yellow-orange gradient is the loudest design in the collection.

Our take: More power, less forgiveness. Great if you’ve outgrown a standard Vertex and want more aggression — not a first racket.

Vertex 05 W — Delfi Brea

The women’s Vertex, signed by Delfi Brea, is the lightest and most maneuverable version of the range. It keeps the reinforced core and Curv:aKtiv system but is tuned for agility — stability in defense, responsiveness in attack.

Our take: “W” stands for weight class, not just women. If you value fast handling over brute force, this is worth trying regardless.

Neuron 02 Edge — Fede Chingotto

The Neuron is for players who see padel as a game of anticipation rather than power. The big 2027 innovation is PrismLock — a prismatic frame geometry from Bullpadel Lab that spreads impact stress more evenly and limits twisting. The result is a firmer, more stable response on contact.

Our take: The control player’s racket. If your game is built on placement, lobs and reading the point, this is the 2027 pick to shortlist.

Pearl — Bea González

The Pearl is the headline story of the 2027 launch. Built with Bea González around the idea of “easy power” — attacking without brute force. It packs several technologies: Pearl Core (inverted triangular core), Air React Channel, a Fibrix face (carbon + fiberglass blend), MultiEVA core, Vibradrive for off-center hits, and a Custom Weight system to adjust balance.

Our take: The most interesting concept in the range. It’s a diamond-shape attacker that tries not to punish your arm. If you want power with comfort, this is the one to demo.

Wonder — Claudia Fernández

The Wonder is Claudia Fernández’s first signature racket — lightweight, agile and surprisingly firm, with control as its headline trait. Deep blacks with blue and pink accents.

Our take: A control-oriented racket for a new generation of players. Light and forgiving makes it a strong option for developing players who want to play a smart, structured game.

Flow Legend — Alejandra Salazar

Some rackets mark the end of an era. The Flow Legend is Alejandra Salazar’s final career racket — an evolution of the Flow with a touch more power, but its real value is in the design: sand and gold tones carrying the titles of her entire career.

Our take: A collector’s piece as much as a playing racket. If you’re buying for the legacy, this is the emotional choice of the range.

What the whole 2027 range tells us

The Pro Line 2027 player models sit between €294.99 and €349.99. The trend is clear: Bullpadel is betting on specialization — a specific racket tuned to a specific style rather than one racket that does everything.

That’s good news and a trap at the same time. Good news because there’s genuinely something for everyone. The trap is that a racket’s specs — diamond vs round, 350 g vs 375 g, high vs mid balance — only tell you half the story. What actually fits depends on your swing speed, your level, how often you play and what your body can handle over a full match.

Specs can tell you what a racket is. They can’t tell you what fits you. Before you spend €300 on a name you recognize, it’s worth working out which of these profiles actually matches your game.
