The short answer

The Bullpadel Hack 04 2025 is a diamond-shaped, head-heavy racket of 365 to 375 g, listed at Professional level. On paper it is all attack: power reads High, and control, comfort, maneuverability and sweet spot all read Low. Not a racket for building points. It suits strong, experienced players. No review exists yet, so the specs are all there is.

By [Ruud Caris](https://padell.io/about/) · facts checked 9 October 2026

Choose it if

- you already hit hard, finish points at the net and want a racket that adds to that
- you have a fast, complete swing and play regularly with 365 to 375 g rackets
- you like the Paquito Navarro line and want the 2025 diamond with a Tricarbon face

Skip it if

- you are still learning the bandeja and need forgiveness, in which case the Bullpadel Hack 04 Hybrid 25 reads Medium for control
- you have had elbow or shoulder trouble, as comfort reads Low and the racket is heavy
- you want quick hands at the net, because maneuverability reads Low here and the Bullpadel Vertex 04 25 reads the same

## How it plays

7.4

**padell.io score 7.4** Play 7.9 (60%) and reviews 6.6 (40%). No independent reviews found yet, so that part starts low. [How the score works](https://padell.io/how-we-score/)

- **Control**: 4.0 below average▼
- **Power**: 9.5 above average▲
- **Comfort**: 4.5 below average▼
- **Handling**: 2.0 below average▼
- **Forgiveness**: 3.5 below average▼
- **Line = the average of all rackets**: ▲ above ▼ below

This is a diamond with a high balance, so it is built to deliver power and asks a lot in return.

- **Control** Low on paper, because the diamond shape and high balance work against precision even though the core and face help a little.
- **Power** High, as the Tricarbon face, diamond shape, heavy weight and high balance all push in the same direction.
- **Comfort** Low, since the weight and the head-heavy balance load your arm, even with a listed anti-vibration system.
- **Handling** Low, because a heavy, head-heavy diamond is slow to turn in fast exchanges at the net.
- **Forgiveness** Low, as a diamond shape puts the contact zone in a smaller area.

The 2025 Hack 04 sits in the middle of a line. Against the Hack 03 2023, the listing shows a change from Advanced to Professional. The surface goes from flat to 3D Grain, and the core and face wording differ. That link is doubtful, so do not treat it as a version story. Against the Hack 04 26, the face wording changes to Tricarbon 18K and the balance label becomes High, Medium. Core, shape, thickness and weight stay the same. The [Hack 05 27](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/hack-05-27/) then changes face and surface wording again. If you want the newest listing, look at the 26. If you want the Hack 04 with the plain Tricarbon wording, this is the one.

The Bullpadel Hack 04 2025 is labelled Professional, yet the [Hack 03](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/hack-03-2023/) 2023 is labelled Advanced. That single label jump says more about the listing than about the racket. Treat this page as a close reading of the specs, because no review of this racket exists yet.

## Professional on the label, Advanced on the Hack 03: why this page skips the version story

The Hack 03 2023 shares the [diamond shape](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/), the High balance label, the 365 to 375 g range and Paquito Navarro's name. It differs in level (Advanced against Professional), surface (flat against 3D Grain), and in how core and face are worded. The link between the two looks automatic and is probably a different model. So a changed label is just that: a changed label, not a measured change. Do not read the Hack 03 as a guide to how this racket plays.

[**04 Hybrid 25**](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/hack-04-hybrid-25/)

## 365 to 375 g, diamond, high balance: what the heavy head asks of your arm and timing

The [weight range](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/) is 365 to 375 g. That is heavy. The balance is listed as High, but the balance in millimetres is not published, so you cannot tell how far the weight sits toward the head.

On court, a heavy head-heavy diamond rewards a full, early swing. Your smash and your bandeja get weight behind them. Quick blocks at the net are harder, because the racket takes longer to turn. If your preparation is late, the racket will punish you.

The retailer also lists a Custom Weight system. The product page claims it lets you change the balance to suit the moment. Treat that as a claim, since no detail is published on how far it can move.

## Tricarbon over MultiEVA: where High power and Low comfort come from

The face is Tricarbon and the core is MultiEVA, with a 100% interwoven bidirectional carbon frame and a 3D Grain surface. Both face and core raise control a little. The diamond shape and the high balance pull it back down.

Power reads High because four things agree: face, shape, weight and balance. Comfort reads Low because the weight and the balance count against it, and only the core helps. A Vibradrive anti-vibration system is listed by a retailer. The product page says it increases comfort through impact absorption. That is the brand's wording, not a measurement. It may take the edge off vibration. It will not make a 375 g head-heavy racket light on your arm.

## Power 4, Control 3: what Bullpadel claims against the Low control meter

Bullpadel's own ratings, found through search, read Power 4, Stability 3, Maneuverability 3, [Control 3](https://padell.io/rackets/siux/beat-control-3/), Sweet spot size 3 and Stiffness 4. The scale is not stated. Read them as the brand's view of its own racket.

They differ from the meters on this page. The brand puts control and maneuverability in the middle of its own ratings. The specs point to Low for both. Both views can be true, because the brand's ratings and the calculated meters use different reference points. Keep that in mind when you compare the two sets of numbers.

The product page also says the racket gives "power and control" together. Take that with care. A diamond with high balance gives you power first, and control only if your technique supplies it.

## Hack 04 26, Hybrid 25 and Vertex 04 25: the neighbours on paper

The successor, the [Hack 04 26](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/hack-04-26/), keeps the same core, shape, weight range and thickness of 38 mm. Two things changed on the listing. The face is now called Tricarbon 18K, and the balance label reads High, Medium, with 260 mm listed. Whether that is a real change or a new way of describing it is not clear.

The [Hack 04 Hybrid 25](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/hack-04-hybrid-25/) is the same-year sibling. It has the same weight range and the same core, a 3D Tricarbon face and a hybrid shape. Its control reads Medium, where this diamond reads Low. If you like the Hack idea but find the diamond too demanding, that is the first racket to compare.

The [Bullpadel Vertex 04 25](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/vertex-04-25/) has the same weight range, the same diamond shape and the same meters: power High, everything else Low. It uses a 12K carbon face and lists Juan Tello as its pro player. The [direct comparison](https://padell.io/compare/bullpadel-vertex-04-25-vs-bullpadel-hack-04-2025/) shows the differences side by side. On paper, the choice comes down to face material and which pro player's line you like, not to a different style of play.

## No review, no balance in millimetres, no head size: what you cannot check

No review of this racket has been found. No source has played it and written it up. The balance in millimetres, the head size and the handle are not published either. So the meters here are calculated from shape, face, core, weight and balance. They are not court results.

Treat the profile as a calculation from the specs only. Once a reviewer plays this racket, the picture may sharpen or shift.

## Questions before you buy

**Is the Bullpadel Hack 04 2025 the same racket as the Hack 04 25?**

The product page names it Hack 04 25, and the listing here is Hack 04 2025. The specs match: diamond shape, high balance, 365 to 375 g, Tricarbon face and MultiEVA core.

**How does it differ from the Hack 04 26?**

On paper, only the face wording (Tricarbon against Tricarbon 18K) and the balance label (High against High, Medium). Core, shape, thickness and weight range are the same. Whether the racket plays differently is not known.

**Is it a racket for intermediate players?**

The listing says Professional, and the specs suggest a heavy, head-heavy diamond with a small sweet spot. Not for beginners. A strong intermediate with a full swing could handle it, but expect it to be demanding.

**Is it hard on the arm?**

Comfort reads Low because of the weight and the high balance. A retailer lists a Vibradrive anti-vibration system, but no review confirms how much it helps. If your elbow is sensitive, the specs suggest caution.

**Is the Hack 04 2025 worth the money right now?**

Today's price is labelled "Good value" compared with the rackets that play most alike. Which shops deliver, and what shipping costs, depends on your country. The price comparison shows it for yours.

**What is the closest alternative?**

The Bullpadel Vertex 04 25 plays most alike. On paper the differences are under one point. Today: € 149.90.

[Compare side by side →](https://padell.io/compare/bullpadel-vertex-04-25-vs-bullpadel-hack-04-2025/)

**Who should not buy it?**

Skip it if you rely on placement and long rallies (control 4.0/10), or if your elbow or shoulder complains (comfort 4.5/10), or if you are still learning: it is not very forgiving (3.5/10).

**How heavy is it really?**

The brand gives 365 to 375 g. That counts as heavy. Each racket can differ within that range.
