The Bullpadel Elite W is Gemma Triay’s signature racket — a teardrop-shape frame with a MultiEva core and an Xtend Carbon 3K face, tuned for control and comfort while keeping enough power for an all-court attacking game.
With a teardrop shape, medium balance and a 95% control index, the Elite W is a versatile, control-leaning racket. Bullpadel’s Vibradrive and Air React Channel keep it comfortable and stable, and CustomWeight lets you fine-tune the balance — a manageable, all-court frame rather than a pure power weapon.

Our review of the Bullpadel Elite W
The Elite W is built around control and comfort. The teardrop shape and medium balance make it versatile and easy to place, while Vibradrive damping and the MultiEva core soak up vibration for a smooth, arm-friendly strike. The Xtend Carbon 3K face is responsive without being harsh.
There’s enough power for an attacking all-court game, but this is a control-first frame — it rewards placement and consistency over brute force. That, plus the comfort tech and CustomWeight tuning, makes it an excellent women’s-pro signature and a strong all-court option for intermediates and advanced players alike.
Pros
- Versatile, control-leaning teardrop
- Comfortable — Vibradrive + MultiEva damping
- Manoeuvrable medium balance
- CustomWeight tuning
Cons
- Less raw power than a diamond
- Control focus won’t suit big hitters
- Pro-level price
Who is the Bullpadel Elite W for?
The Bullpadel Elite W is for intermediate-to-advanced players who want a versatile, control-leaning all-court racket with real comfort — and it’s a standout women’s-pro signature frame. If you want more attacking punch, the diamond Bullpadel Pearl hits harder; control purists could also look at the Bullpadel Neuron.
How the Bullpadel Elite W plays
On control and defence it’s at home — the teardrop shape, medium balance and damping make it easy to place and very comfortable.
On attack there’s enough pace for an all-court game, though it favours placement over outright power.
Bullpadel Elite W vs the alternatives
Within Bullpadel it’s the comfortable, control-leaning all-rounder — softer and more forgiving than the power Bullpadel Pearl, and more all-court than the tactical Bullpadel Neuron. It’s a natural step up from a beginner frame for a control player.

Is the Bullpadel Elite W worth it?
For a control player who wants a versatile, comfortable all-court racket — or a player after Gemma Triay’s actual frame — the Elite W is worth it: easy to use, kind on the arm, and capable across the whole court.
Conclusion
The Bullpadel Elite W is a versatile control teardrop — Gemma Triay’s signature frame blends a 95% control index, medium balance and Vibradrive comfort with enough power for all-court play. It’s not a power weapon, but as a comfortable, do-everything control racket it’s excellent.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Bullpadel Elite W good for beginners?
No. At around $206 it is a performance frame, though the teardrop shape and Vibradrive damping make it more approachable than a diamond racket. It suits established intermediate and advanced players.
What is the Bullpadel Elite W made of?
An Xtend Carbon 3K hitting face over a MultiEva core, with Vibradrive damping, in a teardrop frame with a medium balance point.
What does a 95% control index mean?
It is Bullpadel’s own rating of where the frame sits on the control-to-power scale. At 95% the Elite W is firmly a control racket, though the teardrop shape leaves enough power for all-court play.
Is the Elite W a women’s racket?
It is Gemma Triay’s signature frame, but there is nothing gender-specific about the specification. Choose it on shape, weight and balance like any other racket.
What is the difference between the Elite W and the Neuron?
Both are Bullpadel control frames with MultiEva and Vibradrive. The Neuron is a hybrid at around $236; the Elite W is a teardrop at around $206 with a slightly more versatile profile.
Is the Elite W comfortable on the arm?
Comparatively yes. Vibradrive damping and the MultiEva core absorb a good deal of impact, though a 3K carbon face is still stiffer than fibreglass.
Is the Bullpadel Elite W worth $206?
For a control player who wants a versatile frame with genuine damping, yes. If you want outright power, the Vertex line is the better use of the money.
Which Bullpadel racket is best for power instead?
The Vertex 04 or the Hack line. Our Bullpadel padel rackets guide compares them.
