The NOX Genius Attack 12K Alum Xtrem 2027 is the most attacking Tapia racket in the range. Diamond shape with high balance, hard core and a swingweight of 165 on our scale, this racket is built for pure smash and vibora power. The 12K Alum Xtrem carbon face delivers maximum stiffness for a direct explosive response on every attacking shot.

Who suits this racket

Well suited to: professional players: advanced players who attack the ball and finish points with smashes and viboras. The diamond shape and high balance reward clean technique with maximum power.

Less suited to: players still working on their technique (the small sweetspot is less forgiving), players who prefer a central sweetspot (a hybrid or round suits better) and players with a sensitive elbow. For a sensitive elbow see our selection for padel elbow.

How does this racket play?

The sweetspot of a diamond shape sits high on the face. On our measurement this racket has hardness 64 and swingweight 165. What that means on court: a demanding attacking racket that rewards clean technique with maximum power.

The technology: what do you notice?

• 12K Alum Xtrem Carbon (the face): carbon fibre with reduced fibre waviness for maximum stiffness. What you notice: direct explosive response on hard shots with no energy loss.
• MLD Black EVA (the core): multi-layered EVA that responds firmer on power shots. What you notice: maximum ball speed on smash and vibora.
• Dual Spin (the surface): 3D texture with sandblasted finish. What you notice: extra grip for spin on attacking shots.
• Weight Balance: interchangeable 2 gram and 4 gram counterweights that sit in the handle, adjustable without tools up to 8 grams total. Add weight for a more head-heavy attacking feel or leave it off for maximum maneuverability.
• EOS Tunnel: lateral perforations in the frame that improve airflow through the head. What you notice: the racket moves easily through the swing despite its professional-level build.
• Oversize Grip: 30 millimetres of extra handle length. Useful for two-handed backhands and shifts more mass towards the head for extra inertia.
• VCS (Vibration Control System): a high-performance elastomer inside the handle that absorbs impact. NOX claims a 60% reduction in vibration compared to their previous system. What you notice: less shock through the wrist and elbow especially on off-center shots.
• Pulse System: lateral rubber inserts in the frame that further reduce vibrations transmitted to the hand.
• Dynamic Composite Structure (DCS): the frame material extends into the face area which prevents surface cracking at the frame-face junction and creates a more uniform feel across the hitting surface.
• Custom Grip®: NOX's patented grip technology certified by Testea Padel. Better hold and reduced vibration transmission.
• Smart Strap: quick-release safety strap. Hygienic and adjustable to personal preference.
• Carbon Frame: full carbon frame construction that provides rigidity and durability across the entire racket.
