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.
The 2027 Xplo (88 on our score) is the pick if you want Bullpadel's single most extreme power racket -- by the brand's own description, and by our scoring, it's the hardest-hitting frame they have ever made, with an extremely high balance point and a small, focused hitting area that rewards clean contact and punishes anything else. If that trade-off sounds like too much, the Xplo CMF (85 on our score) keeps almost all of that power (88 vs a class-leading raw number) with a meaningfully larger, more forgiving sweet spot and a softer face -- for most advanced players, it is genuinely the smarter buy, not a lesser one.
The 2026 Xplo (90 on our score, matching Di Nenno's edition) remains a complete modern hybrid and is now the value pick if you find it discounted following the 2027 launch. The 2025 Xplo (89 on our score) is near-identical value when discounted further. If you want more raw smash than even the Xplo line offers, the Vertex 05 Geo is the stablemate to consider.
