What’s new in the NOX 2027 collection?

100% Pure Padel: the new NOX generation

The “100% Pure Padel” philosophy reflects the convergence of two generations of knowledge in equipment development. The launch campaign for the NOX 2027 collection symbolises the passing of the baton between the veteran experience of Miguel Lamperti and the competitive innovation represented by Agustín Tapia. This technical cooperation translates into improved moulds, refined aerodynamics and the application of state-of-the-art materials designed to maximise the efficiency of every shot on court.

New technologies and materials

The 2027 catalogue introduces a carefully selected range of composite materials in the construction of the racket faces and cores. The brand continues to use different carbon fibre densities, including 18K Alum Carbon and 12K Alum XTREM Carbon, whose interwoven structures provide greater structural rigidity and thermal stability in response to temperature variations. For players looking for a more flexible feel and greater ball output, the collection incorporates variants made with aluminised fibreglass and 3K fibreglass. Inside, the cores alternate between MLD Black EVA foam — with multilayer densities designed to balance defensive control and offensive power — and the established HR3 rubber variants (Soft, Hard and Black EVA).

VCS, Weight Balance, EOS Tunnel and Dual Spin

The technological side of the NOX 2027 collection is based on four main pillars designed to improve player performance and comfort:

• VCS (Vibration Control System): Integrated into the handle of rackets in the higher ranges, this system uses a high-performance elastomer bonded to the internal structure of the grip. According to NOX and laboratory tests carried out, the VCS system filters up to 60% of the vibration peaks transmitted to the arm compared with previous models, helping to reduce joint and muscular fatigue in athletes.

• Weight Balance System: A customisable counterweight system that allows the racket’s weight and balance to be adjusted precisely. The set includes interchangeable 2 g and 4 g plates, allowing up to 8 g of additional weight to be added to shift the balance point towards the head (for greater power) or towards the handle (for greater manoeuvrability).
• EOS Tunnel and EOS Flap: An evolution of mould geometry with aerodynamic perforations positioned in the racket’s heart. EOS Tunnel technology optimises airflow during the rotational movement (swing), increasing reaction speed and structural stability.
• Dual Spin surface: A rough finish that combines two textures on the same face — a 3D hexagonal relief together with a low-weight silica sand coating. This technical solution enhances spin generation on sliced and topspin shots without compromising surface durability.

According to NOX, the Ventus Control 3K has been recognised by Testea Padel at the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) as one of the best control rackets.

The main new features compared with the previous collection

Compared with the previous season, the 2027 collection focuses on restructuring its nomenclature and improving ergonomics. The iconic line associated with Agustín Tapia is abandoning the alphanumeric “AT10” designation to formally establish itself as Genius. In addition, the mould profiles have been adjusted to provide a more neutral standard balance, allowing each player to define the racket’s final behaviour through the Weight Balance system.

NOX Luxury Series 2027: the new premium range

The Luxury Series represents NOX’s highest level of technical performance, aimed at advanced and competitive players who demand maximum precision, rigidity and advanced damping technologies.

NOX Genius 2027 by Agustín Tapia: models and key features

The Genius line is the signature collection developed in direct collaboration with Agustín Tapia. The range consists of five variants that combine two different shapes (teardrop for all-round play and diamond for attacking play) and different carbon weights.

Genius 18K Alum

The Genius 18K Alum 2027 is Agustín Tapia’s racket. Built in a teardrop shape with a medium feel, it features 18K Alum Carbon faces, an aluminised composite that provides a firm feel and consistent response regardless of ambient temperature. The MLD Black EVA core provides control during defensive transitions and power when accelerating the shot. It incorporates the VCS anti-vibration system in the handle, the Dual Spin finish and the Weight Balance system.

Genius Attack 18K Alum

Designed for players who prioritise offensive play close to the net, the Genius Attack 18K Alum adopts a diamond shape and high balance. It retains 18K Alum Carbon faces and the MLD Black EVA core, but redistributes the mass to favour leverage on smashes and finishing shots. It includes the Oversize Grip handle with increased length, VCS technology and the Dual Spin finish.

Genius 12K Alum XTREM

The Genius 12K Alum XTREM uses an exclusive rectangularly woven carbon fibre structure that, according to NOX, reduces the waviness of conventional plain weave fabric by 50%. It adds stiffness and thermal stability, with a medium-hard feel. It retains the teardrop shape, VCS anti-vibration protection with up to 60% filtering and the Dual Spin surface for precise spin control.

Genius Attack 12K Alum XTREM

The offensive version of the 12K line, combining the 12K Alum XTREM Carbon structure with a diamond shape. It offers high rigidity and a fast response on smashes, making it suitable for attacking players seeking precision on accelerated trajectories without giving up the joint protection provided by the VCS system.

Genius 12K Alum XTREM Lite

The Genius 12K Alum XTREM Lite adapts the performance of the Luxury range to a reduced weight range. It retains the teardrop shape and 12K Alum XTREM Carbon construction, combining them with a core adjusted to provide greater handling speed and comfort. It is suitable for players looking to prevent arm fatigue or who prefer more agile rackets during defensive play.

NOX Ventus 2027: different options to find your playing style

The Ventus family establishes itself as the second line within the Luxury range, focusing on structural stability, control and versatility. It includes models developed with professional athletes such as Miguel Lamperti, Aránzazu Osoro, Edu Alonso and Aimar Goñi.

Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM

Developed together with Edu Alonso, the Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM features a hybrid/teardrop shape with an even balance. The use of 12K XTREM Carbon Fiber on the faces ensures an even distribution of energy on impact. It features the VCS anti-vibration system, MLD Black EVA core, Weight Balance adjustment and Dual Spin surface.

Ventus Attack 12K XTREM

Designed in partnership with Aimar Goñi, this diamond-shaped racket stands out for its Oversize Grip, a handle that is 30 mm longer and facilitates leverage on two-handed shots while naturally shifting the balance towards the racket head. It features 12K XTREM Carbon faces, VCS system and Dual Spin finish.

Ventus Control 3K

Recognised in tests conducted by the Testea Padel laboratory at the Polytechnic University of Valencia for its control precision, the Ventus Control 3K carries Miguel Lamperti’s signature. It features a round shape, faces made of dense-weave 3K Carbon fibre and a high-density HR3 Black EVA core. It offers a dry feel, direct response and vibration absorption through the VCS system.

Ventus Control 12K

Aránzazu Osoro’s signature model, the Ventus Control 12K combines a round shape and large sweet spot with the rigidity of 12K Carbon fibre and the versatility of the MLD Black EVA core. It is designed for transition and defensive players who want to maintain control of the point without losing ball output when accelerating the shot.

Ventus Hybrid 12K Lite

The most agile variant in the Ventus line. It features a hybrid shape, a weight between 350 g and 360 g and medium balance. The MLD Black EVA core with differentiated densities facilitates ball output at low speeds and allows players to generate power with less physical effort, while retaining VCS and Dual Spin technologies.

NOX Classic Series 2027 Padel Rackets

The Classic Series brings together the traditional configurations and historic moulds that established NOX’s identity in international padel, updating them with modern comfort and durability solutions.

NOX Pro Cup 2027 by Agustín Tapia: two versions for different playing feels

The Pro Cup line reinterprets the classic teardrop mould, offering different core density options to meet players’ preferences for firmness.
