Bullpadel Hack 04 Hybrid (2025)

Editorial assessment · 2025 model

The Hack 04 Hybrid 2025 gives experienced players a different balance from the diamond Hack. It lists about 250 mm, while retaining a substantial 365–375 g weight range. The face is TriCarbon 18K over MultiEva. We would shortlist it for players who prefer this lower-balance setup and want to compare an older Hack with the 2026 Hybrid's aluminized face.

Best for
Experienced players who prefer a lower balance for placement, defence and controlled attacking play.
Main trade-off
The lower balance may help handling, but the racket still carries 365–375 g.

Our assessment

What playing reports add

Tenniszon's review praised placement but found the weight noticeable in fast net exchanges. One Reddit owner, after four or five matches, described a hollow response and said they needed more effort to generate speed than with their previous Siux. These are limited reports, with different players and comparisons.

They make the same buying question worth asking: do you like this racket's response on routine volleys and defensive shots? A lower balance alone cannot answer that.

Consider an alternative if: You want a light racket or rely on pronounced head weight for overheads.

Strengths

  • The 250 mm balance offers a clear alternative to the diamond Hack's higher balance.
  • The TriCarbon 18K face provides a different construction from the 2026 Hybrid.
  • The adjustable weight system allows changes after you have established a preferred setup.

Drawbacks

  • The weight can still be noticeable during quick exchanges.
  • A lower balance does not guarantee the soft or lively response every buyer expects.

FAQ

Is the Hack 04 Hybrid 2025 a lightweight racket?
No. At 365–375 g, it has the same published weight range as the diamond Hack. Its lower balance can make it feel less head-heavy, but buyers who want to reduce mass should compare lighter models.
What changes on the 2026 Hybrid?
The main verified construction change is the face: TriCarbon 18K on the 2025 model and aluminized A-18K carbon on the 2026. Both list 365–375 g and about 250 mm balance. Compare response and current price; the year alone does not establish a better fit.
