Our verdict
The Hack 02 Betis Ex is the green-and-white edition of Bullpadel's budget masterstroke: the Hack 02 platform with a Soft EVA core and fibreglass face, scoring power 79 against control 69 with fair terms (comfort 68, tolerance 68) and honest handling (71). Value 78 trails the standard Advance's exceptional 86 by exactly the badge premium. The football-edition rule from the Xplo Atlético applies again, in milder form: real racket, real club tax. Béticos get a genuine frame in the right colours; neutrals get the same racket cheaper in standard paint.

The series story
Bullpadel Hack
The attacking line made famous by Paquito Navarro
The Bullpadel Hack is the attacking line that Paquito Navarro put on the map, and it has become one of the most consistently interesting families in our database. Where the Vertex is built almost entirely for players who want to finish points overhead at maximum pace, the Hack sits one step closer to the centre of the power-control spectrum. It loads up genuine finishing pace from the mid-court and at the net, but the face gives you enough feel to build points through the glass and stay composed under pressure when the rally refuses to end on your schedule.
The series runs in numbered generations, and the scoring trajectory across those generations is unusually clean. The Hack 03 era landed between 84 and 86 with us, solid numbers for a racket already well suited to intermediate-to-advanced attacking players who do not want to swing perfectly on every contact. The 2025 Paquito Navarro edition of the Hack 04 pushed that to 89, driven mainly by better stability on off-centre strikes and a noticeably larger sweet spot. Then the 2026 Hack 04 reached 91, the highest score this series has produced, and brought Betis and Advance editions into the family alongside the flagship frame.
What holds the Hack together across its generations is a consistent design philosophy: hybrid-leaning diamond shape, construction that rewards attacking players who want to finish overhead but can still play a composed bandeja or a vibora when the situation calls for it. Back-court players looking to push further up the court will find the Hack forgiving on the contacts that matter most. The 2026 version simply does that better than any Hack before it.
Which one should you buy?
The 2026 Hack 04 at PRR 91 is the clear first pick. It is the best Hack we have tested and a genuine alternative to the Vertex 05 for attacking players who want a fraction more control in the construction of points without giving up the pace needed to finish overhead. Buy it at full price without hesitation if your game sits on the power-first end and you want a racket that rewards net presence. If you find the 2025 Paquito Navarro edition at a discount, that PRR 89 frame is still excellent and worth the money at reduced pricing. The Hack 03 Paquito editions, scoring 84 to 86 with us, are now honest value buys for developing attacking players who want the Hack character without the flagship cost.

This carries Bullpadel's excellent-value Hack 02 platform in a club-branded finish: real power with survivable terms throughout, and the Soft EVA core sustains regular play without punishing your arm too badly. It's a mild premium over the standard version for fans of the colours. The standard Hack 02 Advance offers the same performance for less if the branding doesn't matter to you, tolerance prefers decent contact, and club editions do date with the season.
