7.5

Overall Score

"Martin Di Nenno's signature racket, but who knows what version of the racket, Martin plays with. This racket has a sandblasted finish, which I liked a lot, but this type of finish does not last long."

Category Breakdown

Power

8.0

The fiberglass surface of this racket is what differentiates it from the standard Vertex 04, signed by Juan Tello. I liked its high ball output at the net.

Control

7.0

Soft touch, which can leave me feeling out of control at times. I liked its roughness in my bandejas and viboras.

Comfort

0.0

Sweet Spot

8.0

Maneuverability

7.0

This racket moves more slowly than the Neuron, and it is worse than the Neuron in defense. But I still find it comfortable. Tested model is 27.2cm balance.

"Complementary racket to the Vertex 04 because it contains all the technical features of the Vertex 04 but is more playable. Great for intermediate right or left-side players."

Category Breakdown

Power

8.0

Easy power. Generous core. It's not a racket for those who use their whole body to shoot all the way - it's a very generous racket that prioritizes ball output over power. This is not a racket that smashes the ball, but it does have generosity in smashes as well - it works best when you use its slingshot effect (at medium speeds).

Control

7.5

It has a bit of a trampoline effect, which I don't like, but gives intermediate and lower players some playability. I felt the lack of control at the net. Viboras and bandejas are not bad.

Comfort

0.0

Sweet Spot

8.0

The sweet spot is quite large for a diamond.

Maneuverability

7.5

26m balance because it doesn't have the 16g Hesacore. I find it has good maneuverability despite the weight in the head, but it does tend to rotate over on its head.

Overall Score

"Medium touch, comfortable, versatile racket. Harder than last year's due to the new frame technology. "Fibrix" surface, Bullpadel's mix of carbon fiber and fiberglass. The racket is stiffer due to the new Curv-Aktiv frame shape. 26.7cm balance."

Power

8.0

With it's soft touch, this is not a racket made for power.

Control

8.0

I like the control at the net, its harder touch let me use my arm more freely.

7.5

Overall Score

"The Bullpadel Vertex 04 CMF 2024 is a versatile racket that performs well in various aspects of the game, particularly at low to medium intensities. It offers a good balance between power and control, with notable performance in volleys and bandeja shots. The racket seems to be designed for all-court players who prioritize control and maneuverability over raw power."

Category Breakdown

Power

6.0

Loses some power and progressiveness at very high intensities. Not highly progressive, which affects power in powerful smashes.

Control

8.0

Easy to control at low to medium speeds. Great in defensive play from the baseline. May lose some control at very high speeds, but not excessively.

Comfort

0.0

Sweet Spot

8.5

Large, noticeable sweet spot, above center.

Maneuverability

7.0

Comfortable to use, not very demanding on the arm. The slightly higher balance (compared to previous models) aids in overhead shots.

7.1

Overall Score

"Note: the Padel School is sponsored by Bullpadel. This is the same shape as the standard Vertex with a springy surface - mix of fiberglass and carbon fiber - and slightly lighter (~5g). It doesn't come with the Hesacore, which tips the balance towards the head."

Category Breakdown

Power

7.0

I need to put more on the ball to get it to go to the other side, compared with the standard Vertex 04.

Control

7.0

With the springy surface, I feel like I have less control than with the standard Vertex. I prefer its overheads to its volleys due to the lack of control I can feel in my volleys with it.
