{"product_id":"bullpadel-xplo-27","title":"Bullpadel XPLO 27 Padel Racket","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bullpadel XPLO 27 is the 2027 model in Bullpadel's XPLO range, and many retailers list it as the XPLO 02. Bullpadel developed it with Martín Di Nenno and rates it 5 out of 5 for power, the top of its scale. It is built for experienced attacking players who win points at the net with smashes and viboras and have the arm speed to swing a head-heavy racket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Geometric, a diamond base widened at the 2 and 10 o'clock positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 365 to 375 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalance:\u003c\/strong\u003e High, around 27 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 38 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHitting surface:\u003c\/strong\u003e 507 cm²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace:\u003c\/strong\u003e X-Tend Carbon 3K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore:\u003c\/strong\u003e MultiEVA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSurface:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3D Grain rough finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intermediate to hard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of the weight sits toward the head, which gives you extra leverage on overheads. The geometric head widens the frame where a classic diamond narrows, so the sweet spot is bigger than on a pure diamond but still sits high on the face. Control, manoeuvrability and sweet spot size each score 2.5 out of 5 on Bullpadel's own scale, so this racket suits players whose technique is already solid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe faces are X-Tend Carbon 3K over a three-layer MultiEVA core. The outer layers are stiffer to drive hard hits and the inner layer is softer for comfort. Inside the frame, Geometric Core adds reinforcement in the upper head and around the throat to limit twisting and bending on impact. The frame is a tube of interwoven carbon with a hexagonal profile Bullpadel calls Hexature, which it says is 3 mm thicker for stability and resistance to torsion. Air Power reshapes the channels in the lower frame to cut air drag and help swing speed, and Wave System lets energy travel from the top of the frame to help on slower shots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Smart Holes drilling pattern is designed for this mould to set face stiffness and ball exit speed, and the 3D Grain texture helps the ball grip the face for spin. Four Ease Vibe dampeners sit in the face holes, and Bullpadel says they absorb up to 49% of impact vibration. Moving them changes the feel and balance, and you can pick up spare \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/padelnation.ca\/products\/ease-vibe-orange\"\u003eEase Vibe dampeners\u003c\/a\u003e if you want to try different positions.

Vibradrive adds another elastomer strip along the handle to absorb the shake from off-centre hits.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bullpadel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68847418736834,"sku":"497244","price":529.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/8042\/1570\/files\/pala-bullpadel-xplo-2027-01_b15ae77f-0397-4c13-96a6-748a2a5d41bd.webp?v=1793839679","url":"https:\/\/padelnation.ca\/products\/bullpadel-xplo-27","provider":"Padel Nation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
