Nox AT10 Luxury Genius 18K Alum 2024

Great power if you have the right technique. The EVA has some explosiveness.

My test model was 362g and 26.7cm without the custom grip. 12.5cm handle. In the volley, the maneuverability of the AT10 is great for my speed.

I liked the AT10's roughness in the aerial game.

I like its centrally-located sweet spot.

It's not made for smashers, but when the ball arrives right, it works. Much more powerful than last year's.

Super maneuverable.

I felt a lot more control compared to last year's model due to its harder touch.

Small sweet spot located in the center. It felt a little dead in my hand when I was reaching for a ball and made contact out of center.

It is a racket that has no mass. Bajadas are actually OK once I began to play them more slowly than I'm used to. Volleys were fine with it, but again here, I lacked sensation of the ball. In the vibora, I found a decent performance due the spin and a slower speed giving a homogenous response. Of course, without weight and hardness, smashes are not enjoyable...even the kick smash - with every other racket I can do X3, but with this one, no.

I received a model that had a declared weight of 364g, but only weighs 353g, balance of 25.6cm. It is very fast, easy to handle, almost too maneuverable, as it feels like it disperses in the hand. I don't like the handle's shape at the bottom, but this is a personal preference.

The "aluminization" of the carbon fiber has resulted in a softer racket that, something that in 2023, I already found annoying. This racket doesn't transmit a feeling of security in the back of the court.

Irregular, strange feeling, but well-sized.

With flat shots, the racket absorbs the ball a bit and winds up coming out with less power than the 2023 model. This racket is better with high spin shots. I often felt like I was missing a bit of weight in the head.

Super maneuverable racket, great for volley duels.

This version loses controls the ball much better than the 2023 version. There is less of a bounce effect, probably due to the new new Multi-EVA's drier touch. This is the main change between this model and the previous one. Though in bandejas I often noticed that if I didn't direct the ball low, it float into the glass.

In the back of the court, I liked the increased softness more than last year's version, the sweet spot is larger and more centered - not as large as the ML10, between the ML10 and 2023's AT10 18K.

In smashes, it's not very bad actually. It's not as progressive as the 12K, but it's really good actually. For a racket without a high balance, it does well in the rulos and other top spin overheads.

Softer than last year, medium touch. Same maneuverability as last year. With fast balls, you might lose a little performance, but for the rest, great ball output.

At the net, the roughness is really nice, it's quite reactive, but I feel more control than with Tapia's racket from last year (the 2023 AT10 18K). At high speeds, I'd expect to lose some control, but it's not so bad actually. While accelerating, I feel like the double density EVA helps you accelerate, it's possible to accelerate your arm a lot and lose control of the ball, to float the ball. In bandejas, the low balance and medium touch is very nice.

Sweet Spot slightly better than last year.

More powerful than last year's, but it's not a power racket - with its spin, it's more for kick smashes than flat smashes.

Super maneuverable

Amazing control

Small sweet spot
