Teardrop Padel Racket Nox Pro Cup Hard by Agustín Tapia 2027 - Power and Control in Your Hands

Nox Pro Cup Hard by Agustín Tapia 2027 is a powerful, controlled and maneuverable padel racket from Nox with a teardrop shape, combining the firm response of the HR3 Hard EVA core with precision and spin. The carbon frame and the metallic fiberglass face with Exclusive Spin texture deliver stable play in both attack and defense. The model was developed with brand ambassador Agustín Tapia.

A weight of 360 - 375 g and a profile width of 38 mm provide plenty of power without losing maneuverability. The firm core and carbon frame give a clear response, while the dual surface texture helps you control spin and ball trajectory better. The Eos Flap side perforations make the racket faster in your hand, and the Pulse System reduces vibration.

Technologies

• Fiber Glass Silver - fiberglass with a metallic finish: its stiffness sits between carbon and standard fiberglass, so the face combines responsiveness and comfort on impact.
• Exclusive Spin - two types of roughness on the face: a 3D hexagonal texture in the center and a sand finish on the rest of the surface. It is molded using lightweight silica sand. Result for the player: more control and the ability to put more spin on the ball.
• HR3 Hard EVA - a core made of high-density tinted HR3 rubber: great power and a firm feel on impact.
• Eos Flap - side perforations in the frame: they increase maneuverability and distribute weight evenly, so the racket feels fast in your hands.
• Dynamic Composite Structure - the frame material extends up to four centimeters into the face, so the difference in stiffness between the frame and the face is imperceptible. This helps prevent cracks on the racket surface.
• Smart Strap - a system for quick and easy grip cord replacement.
• Pulse System - side rubber inserts running from the base of the frame to the bottom of the racket: they reduce the vibration transmitted to the player's hand.

Care and recommendations

1. Do not leave the racket in the sun or in the car. High temperatures can damage the EVA structure inside the racket, causing it to lose its resilience.
2. Protection from impacts and scratches. Most damage happens from contact with the glass or the floor. Protector tape on the frame reduces the risk of chips and cracks.
3. Cleaning after play. Wipe the surface with a damp soft cloth to remove dust and sand. Do not use harsh products, so you preserve the Exclusive Spin texture.
4. Storage and transport. Keep the racket in a cover or a padel bag (ideally with thermal protection) to avoid moisture and temperature changes.
5. Accessories. Choose original Nox overgrips together with anti-slip sprays for a secure grip and a longer-lasting handle.
