Video overview
The Bullpadel Vertex 05 26 is Juan Tello's racket and the most popular Bullpadel we sell: a diamond for advanced players who attack, but one that still works in defence and transition. The 2026 model, now reduced against its original price.
- Shape: Diamond, with the mass and sweet spot high in the head for maximum power in attack.
- Level: Suits advanced players.
- Face: Carbon, firmer and more direct, turning your swing speed straight into ball speed.
- Balance: High, head heavy, putting real weight behind your smashes.
- Weight: 365-375g, a sturdier build with more stability and weight behind the ball.
- Surface: A rough finish grips the ball, making slice and topspin easier to add.
- Standout: A 12K carbon face over a three-layer Multieva core. Firm when you hit hard, softer on touch shots, which is why the Vertex feels more complete than a typical power diamond.
- Value: If you want the Vertex but find full carbon harsh on the arm, the Vertex 05 Comfort is the same shape with a softer carbon and glass face. If you build points rather than finish them, the Vertex 05 Hybrid has the same build with a lower balance and more control.
- X-Tend Carbon 12K face: A carbon fibre face. The 12K weave is Bullpadel's middle-stiffness carbon: firm enough to put real pace on the ball, with enough give that it does not feel harsh.
- Multieva core: Three layers of EVA foam at different densities. Hard hits reach the firmer outer layers for pace; slow touch shots stay in the softer middle for feel.
- Top Spin surface: A rough, sandblasted finish that grips the ball so you can add slice and topspin more easily.
- Vertex Core: A triangular bridge in the heart that stiffens the frame against twisting, so off-centre hits stay predictable.
- Curvaktiv frame: A twisted, variable-section frame that spreads vibration more evenly and cuts drag.
- Air Power channel: A channel cut through the lower frame that lets air through, reducing drag so the racket comes through quicker.
- Carbon Tube frame: A frame made from woven carbon fibre. It keeps the head stable and stops it twisting on off-centre hits.
- Hesacore grip: A grip shaped with raised hexagons that spread pressure across your palm, so you can hold it lighter and tire less.
- Vibradrive: A damper in the handle that absorbs vibration before it reaches your wrist and elbow.
- Ease Vibe: Dampers in the frame that soak up vibration on impact.
- Custom Weight: Slots in the frame for small weights. Add them to the head for more power, or leave them out for faster hands. It comes balanced as standard.
- 365-375g, high balance: Standard advanced weight with the balance towards the head. Enough mass behind the ball for smashes, but Bullpadel rates it 4 out of 5 for manoeuvrability, which is unusually quick for a diamond.
The vertex is a brilliant model for all round playability. One of the few diamond shaped models that is useful in defence.

How can I guarantee next day delivery?
Order any in-stock item before our daily cut-off and we'll dispatch it the same day on a next day delivery service, free of charge. Everything listed as in stock is sitting in our warehouse ready to go, so there's no waiting on suppliers. Orders placed after the cut-off, on weekends or on bank holidays are dispatched the next working day. If you need something for a specific date, message us before ordering and we'll confirm it'll make it in time.
How do I choose the right padel racket for my skill level and playing style?
Start with your level, then your style. As a rough guide: round rackets have a big sweet spot and maximum control, ideal for beginners and defensive players. Teardrop rackets balance power and control, perfect for most intermediate players. Diamond rackets are power-focused with a smaller sweet spot, best for advanced, aggressive players. The quickest way to narrow it down is our Racket Quiz, answer a few questions about your level, style and budget and it'll recommend the best options currently in stock. You can also check out our YouTube channel where we review and test rackets on court, or just message us on WhatsApp and we'll recommend one personally.
