How Does the Bullpadel Ionic Control perform?

Bullpadel’s intermediate Next line is composed of the Ionic and Axym models. These models both have surfaces made of a mixture of carbon fiber and fiberglass and MultiEVA cores, which grant them a great compromise between comfort, ease of play, power, and control.
They are also notably best buys, usually on sale for under €200.
This model has a round shape, similar to a teardrop, which creates a medium balance. Players will notice that its medium-soft touch results in the ball being absorbed slightly upon impact. This high ball output can help propel the ball across the net during low-speed shots but may result in a loss of power in smashes.
Reviewers note: the racket was tested in comparison with other control rackets - Metheora Dual, Adipower CTRL 3.2 - at 25°C.

Hard to maneuver. Ok power. Best at medium speed due to its soft core and surface which absorbs the ball on fast swings. I lose control on fast balls due to the bounce effect. Sweet spot is very big and located slightly above the center of the racket face.
