Who this racket is for

The nox at 10 genius ultralight 23 targets advanced players with consolidated technique who want more performance without yet moving to a pure competition racket. Its teardrop shape shifts the sweet spot slightly upwards, striking a balance between control and power. The medium balance keeps a balanced behaviour between baseline shots and volleys. The medium hardness offers a reasonable compromise between impact absorption and shot response. With a weight of 345-360g, it sits among the lighter rackets on the market: easier to swing and less stressful on the elbow.
