NOX has kicked off its 2027 season with “100% Pure Padel”, the campaign accompanying the launch of its new range of padel rackets. The brand presents the launch as a laboratory of secret formulas where Miguel Lamperti (also known as Walter White), in the role of the veteran who guards the recipe, passes on to Agustín Tapia (with a certain resemblance to Jesse Pinkman) everything he has learnt over the years in product development.

NOX’s new 2027 padel racket collection
Two generations of NOX’s history come together to present 17 rackets, now available for pre-order. The new feature running throughout the high-end range is the VCS anti-vibration system, an elastomer attached to the inside of the grip which, according to the brand, filters out 60 per cent more of the vibrations reaching the arm compared to the previous generation.
Tapia’s Genius gains aerodynamics and comfort
The Mozart range from Catamarca heads up the Signature Series – the models bearing the signatures of Team NOX players. This year, the rackets are moving on from the AT10 designation and are now called Luxury Genius by Agustín Tapia. They retain their five versions. The mould has evolved towards a more aerodynamic and better-balanced profile, featuring a new EOS Tunnel. From there, the range is divided according to two key factors: carbon and shape.
In terms of materials, the Genius 18K Alum utilises aluminised carbon, offering a solid feel and stable performance in the face of temperature changes. The 12K Alum XTREM versions use an interlaced rectangular weave which, according to NOX, reduces fibre waviness by 50 per cent and provides greater stiffness to the face. In terms of shape, the classic versions retain the teardrop shape and all-round profile. The Attack, on the other hand, features a diamond shape, with a high balance point and an extra 30-millimetre Oversize Grip that facilitates two-handed shots and shifts the weight towards the head to gain momentum on the smash.
The Genius 12K Alum XTREM Lite completes the range, weighing between 350 and 360 grams and featuring a softer-feeling HR3 White EVA core, designed for players seeking manoeuvrability. The entire range retains the Weight Balance counterweight system, which allows up to 8 grams to be added, and the Dual Spin surface.
Aimar Goñi unveils his signature racket
The big new addition to the Ventus series has a Navarran touch. Aimar Goñi, who joined Team NOX at the start of 2026, is unveiling his first signature racket: the Ventus Attack 12K XTREM, a model that bore Edu Alonso’s signature last year. It is tailor-made for the Pamplona-born player’s aggressive style, featuring a diamond shape, high balance and an extra 30-millimetre Oversize Grip. Its 12K XTREM carbon face combines rectangular and square weaves to provide greater overall rigidity.
Edu Alonso has opted for the Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM, which retains its teardrop shape and balanced weight distribution on a redesigned mould to enhance control and stability. Miguel Lamperti, as well as starring in the campaign, has designed the Ventus Control 3K. Testea Pádel, from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, recognises it as one of the best control rackets, and its small-weave 3K carbon offers a crisp, direct feel. Aranzazu Osoro sticks with the Ventus Control 12K, with a round shape designed to generate power with minimal effort.
The classics remain on court
The collection is rounded off with the brand’s iconic models. The Pro Cup, endorsed this season by Agustín Tapia, comes in Hard and Soft versions. It features a teardrop shape, aluminium-coated fibreglass faces and the traditional Pulse System as its anti-vibration mechanism. Miguel Lamperti continues his ML10 Pro Cup range with three options: the Coorp, with smooth faces that capture the essence of the original model; the Rough, with a textured surface to enhance spin; and the Silver, a lighter version weighing between 350 and 365 grams.
This new NOX 2027 collection is now available for pre-order via its official website.
