“On paper the HRD+ 2026 is the 2025 HRD+ 3.4 again: the same head-heavy diamond, the same Carbon Aluminized 16K face over High Memory EVA. The one new part adidas lists is a padded, adjustable wrist cord. So it scores like the 3.4: power 92, control 72, manoeuvrability 67, comfort 64 and tolerance 63. It gives you a lot of racket on the overhead and very little back on a late block or a ball off the frame. Value falls to 71 because the 2025 is discounted and this one is not yet, so our score is 88, one under the 3.4.”

Bullpadel Vertex 05 2027 Juan Tello

“Vertex 05 has been Bullpadel's most iconic, best-selling racket for a reason, and the 2027 version keeps that identity intact: a diamond shape paired with a more even, 25.5cm balance point that lets you play from the baseline and attack at the net without the frame fighting you either way. VertexCore's diagonal double-bridge spreads impact forces evenly across the frame, which is exactly why control (82) tracks so closely with power (84) here.”
