Our verdict

The Bullpadel Xplo Premier Padel 2026 Di Nenno sits in a curious position: classified as a control frame but scoring 92 on power, making it one of the most explosive options at the intermediate level. The foam core at 375 g delivers fast, heavy ball exit on smashes and viboras despite the stated intent. Control at 74 is the honest trade-off: this is a frame for players ready to prioritise attacking pace. Comfort at 64 is low, so arm-sensitive players should be cautious. PRR score: 90/100.

We loved
  • Power rating 92: exceptional overhead pace from an intermediate-bracket diamond
  • Foam core at 375 g: lively, explosive response on smashes and attacking drives
  • Di Nenno signature: attacking pedigree behind the frame design
  • PRR score 90: class-leading performance for an intermediate-positioned frame
Worth knowing
  • Comfort at 64 means hard sessions and repeated smashes will register in the arm
  • Control at 74 means sloppy contact will cost placement: technique is essential
  • Tolerance at 63 heavily penalises off-centre contact

The series story

Bullpadel Xplo

Di Nenno's explosive hybrid

The Xplo is the newest of Bullpadel's tour lines, built with Martín Di Nenno and slotted between the Vertex's raw power and the Neuron's control. It is a hybrid in the truest sense: quick enough through the air to defend, with a face that loads up genuine finishing pace. In barely three seasons it has gone from new arrival to one of the strongest performers in our database, with Di Nenno's editions scoring 89 to 90 and the Comfort trim opening the line to players who want the character without the stiffness.

Which one should you buy?

The Xplo 26 (PRR 90, matching Di Nenno's edition) is the pick: a complete modern hybrid that genuinely does both jobs. The 2025 Xplo (PRR 89) is near-identical value when discounted, and the Comfort trim (PRR 84) suits players who want the geometry with less demand. If you want more raw smash, the Vertex 05 is the stablemate to consider.

  1. 2024

    The line's first appearance scores PRR 88 straight away — a hybrid with unusual pop for a debut frame.

  2. 2025
    Xplo (Di Nenno era)

    The mainline Xplo lands at PRR 89, with Di Nenno's edition to match and a Comfort trim alongside.

  3. 2026

    The current generation reaches PRR 90 across the mainline and Di Nenno editions — Bullpadel's hybrid at full maturity.

Ignore the label — it's a smash racket

The catalogue calls it a control frame; the way it plays says otherwise. The lively foam core sends smashes and attacking drives out with exceptional speed, making this one of the most explosive rackets in its bracket. Treat it as attacking equipment: technique is essential because sloppy contact costs placement, mishits are punished, and hard sessions will be felt in the arm.
