Our verdict

Gemma Triay's Elite W 2026 reads on paper like an attacking frame and plays like a complete one. The 12K carbon face over multilayer EVA gives a precise, informative strike; control 84 and maneuverability 78 are the numbers that actually define it, with power 80 arriving when the finish is on. The 350 to 360 g build keeps it quick through fast exchanges, and comfort 74 with tolerance 73 makes it one of the friendlier tour-level frames. For advanced all-court players, and anyone building a fast, tactical game, it is an easy recommendation at value 74.

We loved
  • Control 84 with real net quickness (maneuverability 78)
  • 12K face gives precise, confident feedback
  • 350-360 g build suits fast, tactical padel
  • Among the friendlier tour frames (comfort 74)
Worth knowing
  • Power 80: finishing needs technique, not just the frame
  • Light build gives up some plow-through on heavy balls
  • Signature-line pricing

The series story

Bullpadel Elite

Gemma Triay's do-everything racket, now in its second generation

The Bullpadel Elite is Gemma Triay's line, and it has run under two different names across its history -- worth knowing so the family tree makes sense. It started as the Elite Light W (2023, PRR 81), a women's-specific hybrid. The Elite W generation followed with the 2025 edition (PRR 87) and 2026 edition (PRR 88, the series' best score to date), plus a limited Rome Edition (PRR 83) along the way. For 2027, Bullpadel dropped the 'W' from the name and relaunched the line as the Elite 02 (PRR 85) -- Triay's racket, same core versatile-hybrid identity, new generation number.

Every generation shares the same brief: a hybrid shape and even balance built for a genuinely versatile, all-styles game rather than a specialist power or control tool -- the racket for a player who needs to do everything well rather than one thing brilliantly.

Which one should you buy?

Be straightforward with yourself on this one: the 2026 Elite W (PRR 88) is the highest-scoring racket this line has ever produced, and if you can still find it, it beats the new 2027 Elite 02 (PRR 85) on our numbers. The 2027 Elite 02 is the current generation and gets Bullpadel's latest Total Channel aerodynamics, but it does not yet beat its predecessor in our testing -- buy it for the new-generation construction and updated fit, not because it scores higher. The 2025 Elite W (PRR 87) is excellent value once discounted. The original Elite Light W (PRR 81) and the limited Rome Edition (PRR 83) are now dated relative to the rest of the family.

  1. 2023

    PRR 88 -- the series' best score, and still the one to beat.

  4. 2027

    Renamed and renumbered as the Elite 02, same player, new generation. PRR 85.

Reviews Write a review
The PRR takePRR Team

Fast, tactical and quietly complete

Reads like an attacking frame on paper, plays like a complete one: precise, confident feedback through the face, real quickness at the net, and a light build made for fast, tactical padel. It's also among the friendlier tour-level frames on the arm. Finishing needs your technique rather than the frame's mass, heavy balls reveal the lighter build's limits, and the signature line carries its usual pricing.
