Explosive • Control focused • Comfortable
The Bullpadel Hack 04 Comfort 2026 is the accessible version of the Hack 04, Bullpadel's power diamond model. The same diamond shape and high balance, but a softer Fibrix face instead of TriCarbon 18K and the Multieva core. Comfort 8, forgiveness 8.
The Bullpadel Hack 04 Comfort 2026 weighs 360–370g, diamond shape, high balance (~264mm). Profile 38mm. Face: Fibrix (carbon/fiberglass hybrid). Core: Multieva. Frame: 100% Carbon Tube. RRP ~€260.
Within the Hack range, this is the comfort version: the same attacking geometry as the Hack 04 but a softer face. The relationship mirrors that between the Hack 03 and Hack 03 Comfort.
Bullpadel Hack range 2026:
| Model | Face | Shape | Balance | Character |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hack 04 2026 | TriCarbon 18K | Diamond | High | Maximum power |
| Hack 04 Comfort 2026 | Fibrix | Diamond | High | Power with comfort |

Technologies:
- Fibrix, a weave of flexible fiberglass and stiff carbon for a softer response
- Multieva, a multi-density foam core: denser outer layers for punch, a softer core for tolerance
- Ease Vibe, dampers absorbing up to 49% of vibrations
- Air React Channel, a channel reducing air resistance for more agility
- CustomWeight, 3g gel plates to adjust balance
Comfort 8 and forgiveness 8 are the key ratings. The Fibrix face combines flexible fiberglass and stiff carbon, producing softer contact than the Hack 04's TriCarbon 18K face. That is the starting point for attackers who want the Hack diamond but find the stiff top model too demanding.
The Multieva core determines tolerance. Denser outer layers provide punch on full shots, while the softer core penalizes off-center contact less. Combined with Ease Vibe dampers (up to 49% vibration absorption), the racket keeps contact comfortable, including during longer play.
The diamond shape and high balance are retained: smash 8 and attacking character are not lost. Power is 8/10, a level below the Hack 04 (power 10): the softer Fibrix face trades direct explosiveness for comfort. Maneuverability is 8/10 thanks to Air React Channel.
Defense is 7/10. High balance and diamond shape keep the center of gravity towards the head, limiting defensive play. This remains an attacking racket, just more accessible than the top model. For maximum direct carbon power, choose the Hack 04; for more control, the Hack 04 Hybrid.
The Hack 04 2026 has a TriCarbon 18K face for maximum, direct power: a stiff, demanding top model. The Comfort uses a softer Fibrix face (carbon/fiberglass) and Multieva core for more comfort and tolerance. The same diamond shape, but easier to play with.
For experienced attackers who want the Hack diamond with a softer contact feel. The Fibrix face and Ease Vibe make it more tolerant than the stiff 18K top model, while high balance preserves its attacking character and smash 8.
CMF stands for Comfort. Bullpadel officially calls it Hack 04 CMF 26; retailers use Hack 04 Comfort 2026. It is the comfort version in the Hack 04 range, similar to the relationship between the Hack 03 Comfort and Hack 03.
Both are comfort diamonds with a Fibrix face. The Hack 04 Comfort is the newer generation with a Multieva core and Ease Vibe cushioning. The playing profile is similar: an accessible, forgiving power diamond.
Advantages
Comfort 8: the Fibrix face and Ease Vibe (up to 49% vibration absorption) provide softer contact than TriCarbon 18K
Forgiveness 8: the Multieva core penalizes off-center contact less than a pure carbon diamond
Retains diamond shape and high balance: smash 8 and attacking character remain intact
CustomWeight system for personal balance preferences
Considerations
Gives up some explosive carbon power compared with the Hack 04
High balance and diamond shape keep defense at 7: not a defensive racket
Fibrix gives a less direct response than the TriCarbon 18K top model
What you will notice as a player
The smash gets plenty of easy power; you do not need a full follow-through to put the ball away.
The sweet spot offers forgiveness: slightly imperfect contact loses little accuracy.
Comfortable in long matches: the racket cushions contact well, with little feedback in your arm.
No pronounced weakness, but no single shot where the racket particularly stands out either.
Which shots are affected most?
| Situation | What will you notice? |
|---|---|
| Defense | Reasonable: a calm swing returns most balls off the glass. |
| Volley | Comfortable and stable; aiming is easy and you keep the ball low. |
| Bandeja | Very easy to control: the ball stays low and predictable, ideal for controlling the court. |
| Vibora | It works, but speed and bite must mostly come from your own technique. |
| Smash | Its strongest point: maximum power with little effort, sending the ball away like a rocket. |
| Block | Stable: the racket is ready in time and returns the ball with control. |
| Off-center ball | Forgiving: just outside the sweet spot you lose little and the ball stays on course. |
