Our verdict
The Vertex Jr Girl 26 is the round-profile sibling of Bullpadel's junior performance pair: 335 g, head-light, with a fibreglass face scoring control 72 with kind terms (comfort 72, tolerance 73) and quick handling (74). Power 68 rewards developing shots without consequences. Value 82 leads the junior segment's arithmetic. Between the two Vertex juniors the choice mirrors adult identity: the W's diamond teaches attacking shapes, this round edition teaches all-court balance. Both tick the checklist completely; competitive girls stepping toward performance padel are well served by either.

The series story
Bullpadel Vertex
Bullpadel's flagship power line
The Bullpadel Vertex is the brand's flagship power line and one of the most consistent shapes in professional padel. Every generation holds to the same core brief: full diamond shape, Bullpadel's stiffest carbon layups, and a high balance point built for attacking players who want to finish points overhead. The silhouette has barely changed since the line launched, and that consistency is exactly the point.
We have tracked the Vertex since the 03 generation, which scored PRR 84 and locked in the modern formula. It was a stiff, smash-first frame with little interest in compromise, built for players who construct points from the back-court and close them out with pace through the glass or overhead. The Vertex 04 moved things on meaningfully: better weight distribution, a sweet spot that stopped punishing off-centre contact quite so hard, and a PRR score of 89. That generation also spawned Comfort and limited player editions, which showed Bullpadel thinking seriously about the range of players who reach for the Vertex name.
The Vertex 05 is the current flagship. The Juan Tello edition sits at PRR 93, the highest score we have given any Vertex and among the strongest results in our entire diamond-shape database. Geo, Hybrid and Light variants round out the family and bring that diamond DNA to players who want the series' attacking character without the full stiffness of the mainline. Across our database, the Vertex family has more published rackets than any other series. The core numbered generation remains the reference frame: a pure attacking tool that loads up genuine finishing pace and rewards players who stay composed under pressure at the net.
Which one should you buy?
Buy the Vertex 05 at full price if you want the current reference power frame. The Juan Tello edition scores PRR 93 and is the best Vertex we have tested. Be honest with yourself before you order: this is a racket for players who construct points from the back-court and finish them overhead or through the glass. If that describes your game, nothing in the Vertex line touches it.
The Vertex 04 (PRR 89) is the smart buy while stock lasts. It has nearly identical attacking DNA and has been discounted regularly since the 05 launched. Step back to the Vertex 03 (PRR 84) only at a steep discount; it is the most demanding generation in the line and the gap to the 04 is real and noticeable. If the mainline feels too stiff or too unforgiving on off-pace contact, look seriously at the Comfort or Hybrid editions: they carry the Vertex shape and most of its power, but they give back-court players a little more room when the vibora does not land quite on the sweetspot.
The generation that cemented the modern Vertex formula: full diamond shape, aggressive high balance, and a stiff carbon face built for smash-first padel. PRR 84.
A meaningful update — better weight distribution and a slightly more forgiving sweet spot without giving up top-end power. Spawned Comfort and limited player editions. PRR 89.
The current flagship, headlined by Juan Tello's edition (PRR 93). Geo, Hybrid and Light variants widen the family; the mainline stays a pure attacking frame.
This is genuinely the round counterpart to Bullpadel's junior performance pair: kind terms run throughout comfort and tolerance for young arms, and the round profile teaches all-court balance rather than a narrow attacking style. Genuine Bullpadel junior quality carries through. Power stays modest by design, rewarding developing shots safely — juniors outgrow frames fast, so plan ahead, and the diamond-shaped sibling in the same pair teaches attackers better if that's the direction your junior is heading.
