How to think about this racket
What it is
Hack 04 Hybrid is a 2026 model with hybrid shape, 365–375 g, ~25 cm balance, 529 cm² face, A-18K aluminised carbon and Multieva. Bullpadel lists professional level and defensive / counter-attack style.
Who it's for
Advanced players who steal pace and redirect rather than only smash. Still not a beginner Hack.
How it plays
Official copy is control and counter-attack: Total Channel around the hybrid outline, Tricore with Air React Channel through the heart, A-18K for an easier ball exit than stiff 18K.
Power vs control
Bullpadel’s own ratings put power low and control/maneuverability high versus Hack 04 diamond. Treat that as manufacturer scoring, not a lab result.
Handling
~25 cm balance and hybrid outline are the handling story. Weight band matches the diamond Hack.
Comfort
Touch listed intermediate/soft; A-18K is described as absorbing more impact than stiffer carbons. Still Pro Line.
Sweet spot / forgiveness
Official sweet-spot rating is high for a Hack. Player level remains professional.
Materials
A-18K, Multieva, Total Channel, Tricore, Air React Channel, concentric 3Dgrain, Custom Weight up to +12 g.
Buy if
- You want the official Hack 04 Hybrid: hybrid mould, ~25 cm balance, A-18K and counter-attack positioning.
- You already play at a high level and prefer redirection over a stiff smash diamond.
Skip if
- You want Hack 04’s Tricarbon 18K diamond.
- You need a Tour beginner racket.
Not ideal for: Those looking for Players who want the 18K diamond Hack 04. · Those looking for Still 365–375 g professional carbon. · Those looking for Less tip-smash than Hack 04 diamond.
How it decides

- Maneuverability8.0

- Comfort7.6
