Nox AT10 Luxury Genius 18K Alum 2026 padel racket by Agustín Tapia

The new Nox AT10 Luxury Genius 18K Alum 2026 is Agustín Tapia’s official padel racket for the 2026 season, the most advanced evolution within Nox’s 2026 racket collection. Designed with Tapia and field-tested first at the highest competitive level and then across professional padel, the AT10 Genius 18K Alum by Agustín Tapia 2026 pairs a renewed mould with state-of-the-art materials such as aluminised 18K carbon, which enhances stiffness, resistance and durability on every shot.

Its teardrop shape provides an optimal balance between power and control, expanding the sweet spot and delivering consistent performance in both attack and defence. The 2026 edition is a versatile padel racket with a striking aesthetic and advanced technologies in every detail.

In addition, this Nox AT10 Luxury Genius padel racket stands out for its exterior finish: Chromic Paint, a reactive paint located at the heart of the racket that synchronises with the rubber’s colour, adds a unique aesthetic and functional innovation. More than just a padel racket: it’s the tool with which the Mozart of Catamarca dominates the tour.

On-court benefits: ball exit, power and control on every shot

This padel racket delivers strong ball exit on defence and power on smashes, ideal for players who aim to control the offensive game without sacrificing precision on each stroke. Its mid balance provides excellent manoeuvrability for quick volleys and precise trays: the racket is manageable and stable in any match situation.

The firm feel aids execution of flat, aggressive shots, while the textured surface enhances spin on lifted shots and trays. Thanks to the Weight Balance counterweight system, each player can adjust the balance and customise weight distribution, adapting the racket for a more offensive or more control-oriented style.

Who is Agustín Tapia’s official padel racket for?

The AT10 Genius 18K Alum 2026 is aimed at advanced and professional players seeking a versatile racket with an extra boost of power. It is suitable for players who already control their shots and want to add power without sacrificing precision, and it is also an excellent choice for competitors who play in offensive or mixed positions.

If you come from another Nox padel racket of the high range, the adaptation will be natural: its large sweet spot and comfortable impact feel provide a fluid playing style from the first match. And if this is your first Nox teardrop racket at this level, its tolerance will help you make the step up with confidence.

Nox next-generation technologies

Aluminised 18K carbon and renewed mould

The faces in 18K carbon with an aluminised finish increase face stiffness and the power of each shot, with a striking visual finish. This new mould optimises aerodynamics and weight distribution of the frame, reinforced at the upper and central areas with the Dynamic Composite Structure for greater durability in the most exposed zones.

Multilayered Black EVA multi-layer core

The Multilayered Black EVA structure combines different densities of Black EVA rubber: it optimises ball exit on lower-speed shots and offers maximum firmness and control on explosive impacts, adapting the response to the match’s rhythm.

Dual Spin: double roughness texture

The Dual Spin surface combines a 3D texture and a silica sand finish, a twofold roughness technique that maximises spin generation, ball grip and finish durability. Ideal for víboras, trays and lifted shots with maximum spin.

Chromic Paint: reactive paint

The Chromic Paint finish adds a paint in the racket’s core that synchronises with the rubber’s colour, an exclusive aesthetic and functional detail of Nox’s Luxury 2026 range.

Weight Balance system and Smartstrap®

The interchangeable counterweights in this system, with 2 g and 4 g pieces, allow adjustment of the racket’s balance according to each player’s preference: a fully customisable racket. In addition, the Smartstrap® system enables easy change of the safety cord, ensuring greater hygiene and personalisation.
