Bestpadel Review
The Bullpadel Vertex 04, a 2024 model, is built for the competition player seeking significant offensive capabilities. Its diamond shape and high balance point inherently favor power, which we rated at 8.4/10 in our tests. While it excels in generating pace, it's important to note that this comes with a trade-off in control, which we attributed a score of 5.1/10. This racket is clearly geared towards an attacking playstyle, prioritizing offensive shots. Digging a bit deeper into its construction, the 38mm carbon fiber frame and 12K carbon fiber XT rough surface contribute to its hard feel and impressive durability, which we rated at 9.3/10. The MultiEva core, a medium-firm rubber, complements the stiff surface, allowing for good ball exit on aggressive strokes. We also found its rough surface to be highly effective for spin, earning it an excellent score of 9.5/10. However, the high difficulty rating of 8.6/10 suggests it requires a seasoned player to consistently harness its potential. Overall, the Vertex 04 is a robust option for advanced players who thrive on power and spin and are comfortable with a less forgiving sweet spot. It's a specialized tool for those who dominate the net and look to finish points decisively. If you've played with the Vertex 04, we'd appreciate you sharing your experience in the comments below.
Manufacturer's Description
The new Vertex 04 is a diamond-shaped racket with a rough Top Spin surface which offers maximum power. It is designed for professional or advanced players. It incorporates two new frame concepts. The CURVAKTIV system: its rotated structure provides resistance against twisting. Thanks to the rotation of its surfaces, we can introduce a variable section on the side of the racket. We have managed to introduce a smaller section than that of the vertex03 frame, increasing rigidity, but we have also managed to widen the section lengthwise, achieving a more uniform transmission of stresses throughout the racket. This improved distribution of vibrations and stresses is also supported by the combination of the CURVAKTIV with the AIR POWER. The AIR POWER is the natural evolution of the Air React Channel system. It is a channel that we create using a hollow area in the lower side of the blade. This hollow area works better than if it were a solid piece because it is made up of less material and is less prone to deformation, making the structure stronger. The external core is made from Xtend Carbon 12k carbon, its internal core from the new MultiEva rubber, and its frame from 100% carbon fibre CarbonTube. It has a CustomWeight plate system, allowing for balance of the racket to be modified according to the needs of every player. It offers a Vibradrive system for absorption of vibrations. It also incorporates the Hesacore grip that reduces effort, vibrations, and the probability of injury.
