Bullpadel Black Dragon 4.0 vs Nox At10 Genius 18K Alum By Agustin Tapia

“The Black Dragon 4.0 is Bullpadel's volume attacker: a Soft EVA core under a fibreglass face, head-light, producing power 79 with more civility than the dragon branding implies (comfort 67). Control 68 and tolerance 66 want developing discipline; maneuverability 70 stays honest. Weight documentation is incomplete. Value 76 is solid. The Dragon has always been the brand's gateway aggression, and the 4.0 continues the tradition: enough pace to feel dangerous, enough softness to survive the learning, at money below the Hack and Vertex shelves. For improving attackers, a sensible first Bullpadel.”

“Tapia's AT10 Genius 18K Alum is the rare frame that hits like an attacker's racket but doesn't fall apart when you defend. The 18K carbon face over a black EVA core gives a dense, springy strike: drives carry pace (power 88), yet the teardrop shape and even balance keep the head obedient on bandejas and blocks (control 84). It sits at the top of our table because it asks fewer sacrifices than a pure diamond. The compromises are familiar: comfort 70 means the stiffness reaches your elbow eventually, and tolerance 68 still wants near-middle contact.”
