Buy the Vertex 04 Hybrid for premium MultiEva feel; otherwise the Nox Equation WPT is genuinely outstanding value.
Two strong premium options that look similar on the spec sheet but feel different in hand.
The Bullpadel Vertex 04 Hybrid at £260-280 is an advanced player's tool: 360-380g, hybrid shape, medium-high balance, MultiEva zoned core, carbon fibre face. The MultiEva is the standout — it gives you power where you need it and control where you don't.
The Nox Equation WPT at £160 is a tournament-grade racket built around the Equation series' famous balance. The Equation traditionally sits between the AT10 and ML10 lines — more aggressive than ML10, more forgiving than AT10.
The value question is stark. The Equation WPT does most of what the Vertex does for £100-120 less, with arguably better all-court flexibility.
The Vertex 04 wins on premium feel and vibration dampening. If those matter to you, pay up. If you want the best mid-premium racket on the market, buy the Equation.
