Who this racket is for

The Nox AT10 Genius 18K Gloss By Agustín Tapia EX 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. Its 360-375g weight range places it in the medium-weight group, the most common among amateur players.
