How to think about this racket
What it is
The Vertex 05 is Bullpadel’s 2026 Tello diamond: CarbonTube frame, X-Tend Carbon 12K face, three-layer Multieva and Top Spin grain. The official page lists professional level, versatile style, high balance around 25.4 cm and 365–375 g.
Who it's for
Advanced and competitive players who already build the point and still want a finishing window. If you are learning contact, this is the wrong Bullpadel.
How it plays
Bullpadel pitches Total Play — defence, attack and transitions on the same mould — with Multieva’s firmer outer layers for pace and a softer inner layer on slower balls. That is manufacturer language, not a Kitletics on-court test.
Power vs control
This is the standard Vertex diamond, not Hack 04’s attack channel and not XPLO’s geometric power mould. The Hybrid sibling is the lower-balance Vertex if you want more usable face.
Handling
Published band is 365–375 g. Custom Weight can add plates at the tip. Air Power is the aero story. None of that makes it a light beginner stick.
Comfort
Touch is listed as intermediate. Ease Vibe, Hesacore and Vibradrive are the vibration claims. Arm-comfort shoppers should look at Hack 04 Comfort, XPLO Comfort or Indiga first.
Sweet spot / forgiveness
Sweet-spot size is rated higher than Hack/XPLO on Bullpadel’s own scale, but player level is still professional. Off-centre contact will not feel like Indiga CTR.
Materials
38 mm, 530 cm² face, X-Tend Carbon 12K, Multieva sandwich, Top Spin sand grain. Technologies include Curv:aktiv, Air Power, Vertex Core and Custom Weight.
Buy if
- You already play at a high club or tournament level and want Tello’s 2026 diamond Vertex with published 12K and Multieva.
- You want the current Vertex — not the previous 04 and not a Tour Advance fiberglass.
Skip if
- You are still building contact and need Indiga CTR or Ionic Light.
- You specifically want the Hybrid mould or the 350–360 g Vertex 05 W.
Not ideal for: Beginners who need a round, soft, light racket · Players who specifically want the Vertex 05 Hybrid’s low ~25 cm balance
How it decides
- Power8.2
Diamond + 12K + 365–375 g sit in Bullpadel’s versatile Vertex slot, below XPLO’s manufacturer power rating. Inferred from shape/construction, not a lab smash test.
- Control8.0
Bullpadel lists playing style as versatile / Total Play and rates control above Hack 04 on the official Vertex 05 sheet.
- Forgiveness5.8
Official sweet-spot rating is generous for a diamond, but player level is professional — not a large beginner sweet spot.
- Maneuverability7.0
Bullpadel rates maneuverability high on the Vertex 05 sheet; published weight still starts at 365 g.
- Comfort6.8
Intermediate touch plus Ease Vibe / Hesacore / Vibradrive. Not a SoftEva comfort racket.
- Stability8.2
CarbonTube frame, 12K face and 38 mm adult construction imply a stable platform versus Tour fiberglass.
These are explainable buying attributes with source type, not laboratory measurements or a Kitletics overall score.
Pros & cons
Pros
- Manufacturer diamond + 12K + Multieva is the current Tello Vertex, not last year’s 04
- Bullpadel lists versatile / Total Play rather than a pure smash-only mould
- Custom Weight and Top Spin are specified systems, not a colourway change
Cons
- 365–375 g diamond still punishes a late swing
- Not the Hybrid if you want a lower ~25 cm balance
How it fits different uses
| Use case | Score |
|---|---|
Padel Advanced Manufacturer player level is professional. Matches advanced/competitive use. | 92 |
Padel Competitive Tello’s current Vertex is the tournament model in this family, not Vertex Advance. | 90 |
Padel Balanced Bullpadel positions Vertex 05 as versatile Total Play. Suitable as an advanced all-rounder, not a first racket. | 88 |
Padel Maximum Power Use Hack 04 or XPLO if finishing power is the job. This Vertex is the multi-purpose sibling. | 68 |
Padel Beginner Wrong tool for new players. Indiga CTR exists for that job. | 24 |

Padel Racket Weight Explained
Weight is a primary handling filter. Ionic Light and Motion-class frames illustrate lighter handling. Flagships like Vertex 05 and Metalbone 3.5 sit in typical adult bands where stability and authority rise — if you can swing them on time.
