Buy the Vertex 04 Hybrid if you're advanced and want premium MultiEva feel; otherwise the Delta Pro 2026 is the smarter spend.
Bullpadel's tour-grade hybrid against Head's all-court contender.
The Bullpadel Vertex 04 Hybrid at £260-280 is built for advanced players: 360-380g hybrid shape, medium-high balance, MultiEva core (zoned EVA densities) and a carbon fibre face. Excellent vibration dampening means you can actually feel what the ball is doing. The hybrid shape splits the difference between teardrop power and round forgiveness.
The Head Delta Pro 2026 at £160 is Head's all-skill flagship. The Delta line is traditionally a teardrop with balanced specs and Head's signature soft, plush feel.
The Vertex is the better racket on paper, but the Delta Pro is the better buy for most players. £100-120 saved, more forgiving feel, and the Head Delta name carries real weight at UK club level too.
Reserve the Vertex 04 for genuine advanced players who already know exactly what they want from a hybrid shape. Anyone else: Delta Pro every time.
