Despite a mature market where the optimization of existing models prevails over pure innovation, the launch of a new racket continues to generate enthusiasm among players.

When this comes from the world leader of the discipline, the event takes on a special dimension. This new reference, called XPlo by Bullpadel, stands out not only for its atypical form, but above all by a tempting promise for lovers of offensive play : to be the most powerful ever designed by the brand. A combination that naturally triggered for the target audience a unprecedented wave of expectations.

Martin Di Nenno, one of the most defensive players of his generation, now has his own signature model. As for his compatriot Fede Chingotto a few seasons ago with the Vertex, Bullpadel wanted to equip the Argentine metronome with a much more incisive racket that CMF version with which it was equipped until then. Indeed, for several seasons, the players on the right side take moreoffensive initiatives and need to much more impactful palas in order to dominate from their position as well.

« XPlo », stylized contraction ofExplosion orExplosive, perfectly evokes the power of this racket. The " X » initial reinforces this idea, suggesting theextreme, while " for » creates a short and effective name. This choice is therefore very relevant for the most powerful racket in the range pro-line, announcing a explosiveness and exceptional striking force.

In partnership with French Padel Shop, Padel Hunter analyzed the snowshoes from A to Z Bullpadel XPlo.

The diamond revisited

Maintaining the diamond shape, typical of powerful rackets, The XPlo stands out by his marked angles and a unique balance, which give it a strong and distinctive visual identity. A bold geometry that scores points!

A captivating perforation

We immediately notice the drilling plan. After initiating a change last year with the Neuron and his bolder design, Bullpadel breaks even further with the classic diagrams used so far, by proposing a original design for XPlo, evoking the silhouette of a Indian cobra, Well. Robustness et precision, symbolically associated with the snake, perfectly reflect theDNA of this racket, thus confirming theoffensive orientation of this model.

Le color code from shovel is one of the most classic with a combination of Red and Black embellished with some shades of gray, especially located on the pont. THE apparent carbon allows you to add a touch of modernism in order to clarify this reference which nevertheless remains quite about

Key Features

La XPlo 25, signature racket of Martin Di Nenno, reaches a peak of power in the diamond range of Bullpadel. Its innovative technologies strengthen the game of the Argentine champion.

Technologies and construction

This new series revolutionizes the concept of explosive power thanks to its unique geometric design Geo Shape. Its expanded frame at 2 and 10 o'clock positions, combined with a balance in mind, optimizes the strike zone and amplifies theleverage for maximum performance and responsiveness.

Le Geo Core geometric core, reinforced by a diagonal structure in the upper part and arm reinforcements in the lower part, stabilizes the whole by minimizing twisting on impact. This feature transforms theplayer energy en pure power, making this racket the ideal tool for hitters favoring the aerial game.

THEHexature, innovation of Bullpadel, consists of a hexagonal tubular 3 mm thick integrated into the frame. This structure optimizes the energy transfer, strengthens the stability and torsion resistance, while increasing the Sustainability and power of strikes.

The new hole design on the racket XPlo create a central area without drilling to reduce the flexion of this sector, thus increasing the rigidity and energy transmission every time.

La striking surface has a shiny effect and 3D relief.

THEAir Power, hollow channel between the handle and the frame, improves theaerodynamisme and vibration management. Lighter and more robust than a solid part, it accelerates the swing (+23,5% vs. Air React Channel) by minimizing air resistance. The result: a faster and more maneuverable racket.

Le Wave System gives the frame a increased flexibility, allowing a smoother transmission of energy from the top of the racket.

The setting 100% carbon is completed by a XT 12K Carbon fiber coating latest generation, guaranteeing a optimum power.

Le bilayer MultiEva core combine:

  • A dense outer layer for power
  • A softer inner layer for the control

Ergonomics and customization

  • High balance for optimal leverage.
  • Custom Weight Adjustable Weight System to change the balance of the pala.
  • Ease Vibe Anti-Vibrators strategically inserted into the holes to reduce vibrations.
  • Handle equipped with the Vibradrive anti-vibration system as well as a fleece strap.
  • Hesacore Grip integrated as standard for a comfort and optimal grip.

Make way for performance!

En attack, this shovel delivers a exceptional power, with some devastating smashes and drumming volleys – provided you master the technical necessary.

Conclusion balance in mind, true trump card, provides a leverage impressive on all strikes performed above the shoulder. The proven combination of the MultiEva gum and Xtend Carbon 12K coating, already present on the Vertex models, confirms its qualities in terms of rigidity the anti-vibration systems prove effective, an essential characteristic given the kernel density which could otherwise cause pain in arms and shoulders.

less handy because of his head weight, and little tolerant (in French only) at off-center strikes because of its small sweetspot, this pala requires physical power to generate bullet exit, especially in to the defense and at the end of the gesture.

Alternatives

La XPlo 2025 Comfort is also available in a matte version, which is distinguished from the lacquered model, mainly through the integration of Fibrix in its faces. This mixture of carbon fibers and brings significant benefits: a better tolerance, additional comfort and optimized ball output.

She doesn't have it anymoreHesacore undergrip, but I want to clarify that the original grip is one of the most comfortable I have ever tested.

Other features remain the same, including thevery marked balance at the head. Although theDNA the shovel has softened, it remains resolutely oriented towards the offensive play and will know how to seduce the players looking for a more tame racket that reference model.

Conclusion

La XPlo fully confirms its promises by establishing itself as a absolute reference in terms of power, and Bullpadel has optimized every aspect of its design to make it a resolutely offensive weapon, even if it means sacrificing the playing comfort and maneuverability.

Conclusion major innovation, characterized by the Geo Shape, is distinguished by a geometric frame and head weight distribution which maximize its explosive potential.

This bold design, associating a oversize diamond format (in French only) at latest technology Bullpadel, generates a impressive power on each hit. These combinations make it possible to deliver devastating smashes and lightning volleys with a disconcerting efficiency, offering a domination constant in the attack phases.

However, this pala signature requires a advanced technical level to be fully exploited. Its pronounced rigidity and high balance can destabilize the less experienced players. It is a demanding pala which is therefore primarily aimed at experienced attackers in order to maximum performance, looking for uncompromising equipment combining power et precision.
