Bullpadel 2027 Pro Line: Everything To Know About the New Racket Collection
Share
Every autumn, Bullpadel unveils the rackets its professional team will use the following season. The 2027 Pro Line was presented at the Premier Padel tournament in Madrid in September 2026, and every racket family has been renewed, from Paquito Navarro's Hack to Bea González's Pearl.
With more models than ever, including Hybrid, GEO and Comfort versions, it can be hard to see what has actually changed and which racket suits your game. This guide covers the whole collection, racket by racket.
What's New in the 2027 Pro Line?
Each family keeps its playing character, but the construction has moved on. The main themes across the range are:
- Faster swings. Air Power, an enlarged version of Bullpadel's Air React Channel, appears across most of the range to reduce air resistance and make the racket quicker through the air.
- New hearts. Each family has its own redesigned core structure, such as Hack Core, Vertex Core and Pearl Core, to improve stability on off-centre hits.
- Custom Weight. Small 3 g carbon plates can be fitted at specific points of the frame, so players can fine-tune weight and balance.
- Comfort versions. The Hack, Vertex, Neuron and XPLO each have a Comfort model with a softer Fibrix face and a slightly lower price.
- 3D Grain. A textured face, adapted to each mould, to help the ball bite and generate spin.

Power: Hack 05 and XPLO
Bullpadel Hack 05 27
The Hack 05 27 marks ten years of Paquito Navarro's Hack line. It keeps the diamond shape, high balance and Tricarbon 18K face that make it one of padel's most recognisable attacking rackets, but the frame has been redesigned around aerodynamics, with a new Hack Core heart and Air Power channel for faster acceleration. The feel is medium to firm, so it rewards players who generate their own racket speed.
For a more forgiving version, the Hack 05 Hybrid 27 (£310) uses a hybrid shape and medium balance, while the Hack 05 Comfort 27 (£215) keeps the diamond shape with a softer Fibrix face and slightly lower weight.
Bullpadel XPLO 27
Developed with Martín Di Nenno, the XPLO 27 is the most attack-minded racket in the 2027 collection. A high balance, carbon face and Bullpadel's Wave System are all designed to turn racket speed into explosive smashes. The XPLO Comfort 27 (£215) offers a softer, more manageable version with a medium balance.
All-Round Power: The Vertex 05 Family
The Vertex has long been Bullpadel's best-known all-rounder: powerful enough to finish points, but more manoeuvrable than a pure power racket. The Vertex 05 27, used by Juan Tello, pairs a diamond shape with an X-Tend Carbon 12K face, a redesigned Vertex Core and the Curv:Aktiv frame for stability.
- Vertex 05 Hybrid 27 (£310): hybrid shape and medium balance for players who want more control.
- Vertex 05 GEO 27 (£310): Pablo Cardona's racket, with a geometric shape that widens the frame at key points for a larger hitting area.
- Vertex 05 Comfort 27 (£215): the Vertex character with a softer Fibrix face.
Control and Precision: Neuron 02
Fede Chingotto's Neuron line is built for players who win points through placement, consistency and patience. The Neuron 02 Edge 27 uses a geometric shape, X-Tend Carbon 3K face and firmer Hard EVA core, with PrismLock technology to limit frame twisting on impact. The Neuron 02 27 (£300) shares the same precision-focused construction in a teardrop shape, and the Neuron 02 Edge Comfort 27 (£215) adds a softer Fibrix face.
The Women's Pro Line
Five rackets have been developed with leading players on the women's tour. They are lighter, typically 350–365 g, without losing Pro Line construction:
- Pearl 27 (Bea González): diamond shape designed to make power easy to access.
- Elite W 27 (Gemma Triay): a hybrid, all-court racket balancing power and control.
- Vertex 05 Woman 27 (Delfi Brea): the Vertex's attacking character in a lighter frame.
- Wonder 27 (Claudia Fernández): a hybrid shape focused on control and quick reactions.
- Flow Legend 27 (Alejandra Salazar): a light diamond racket presented as the final racket of her professional career.

What Do the Comfort Models Offer?
Comfort models (labelled CMF by some retailers) replace the carbon face with Fibrix, a blend of fibreglass and carbon. The result is a softer, more forgiving response that's easier on the arm, at a lower price (£215). They suit intermediate players stepping up to the Pro Line, players who are on court several times a week, and anyone managing elbow or shoulder discomfort. For even more arm protection, see the Bullpadel Cloud range.
Should You Upgrade From a 2026 Racket?
If your current racket suits your game and is in good condition, there's no urgent need to switch. The 2027 models are most worthwhile if you want quicker handling, more spin from the updated 3D Grain faces, or the ability to adjust balance with Custom Weight. Players coming from a 2024 model or older will notice a bigger difference.
