Performance Highlights

1. 12K Alum Xtrem Carbon Face

The hitting surface features premium 12K Alum Xtrem aluminized carbon. This advanced material reduces fiber interlacing and waviness by 50% compared to traditional carbon weaves, resulting in a thinner, smoother, and stiffer face. The aluminized treatment ensures structural stability, preventing the racket from going too soft during high summer temperatures or too rigid in cold climates.

2. Cushioned HR3 White EVA Core

Inside the Lite framework is a low-density HR3 White EVA foam core. This softer rubber composition provides a plush, comfortable feel at impact and excellent shock absorption. It acts as a perfect counterweight to the stiffer 12K carbon face, delivering a controlled ball exit and high precision during fast, touch-based baseline rallies.

3. Dynamic Weight Balance System

The frame incorporates Nox's customizable weight-adjustment setup. This system includes interchangeable 2g and 4g counterweight plates that fit smoothly into the frame protector zone. It lets you customize the balance point on the fly—making it incredibly simple to add a bit of top-heavy punch or keep the layout strictly head-light for extra maneuverability.

4. Aerodynamic EOS Tunnel Tech

The lower sides of the throat are designed with strategic lateral aerodynamic perforations called the EOS Tunnel. By allowing airflow to pass through seamlessly, it slashes air resistance to increase your racket head speed, allowing you to intercept fast body volleys and finish overheads with rapid acceleration.

5. Dual Spin Surface Roughness

To maximize spin potential, the face utilizes Dual Spin technology - a combination of a molded 3D grid pattern and a lightweight silica sandblast finish across the entire surface. This double-layer roughness bites deeply into the ball felt, allowing you to execute sharp, low-skidding slices and technical chiquitas without degrading the surface durability.

6. Comfort Gripping & Joint Protection

• Pulse System; Custom Grip: Rubber strips run along the frame throat down into the handle, working alongside the patented, Testea Padel-certified Nox Custom Grip to filter out harsh impact shockwaves and prevent tennis elbow.
• Oversize Grip: Features an extended 30mm handle length, giving ample clearance for players who prefer a two-handed backhand or need a longer lever for extra smash leverage.
• Smartstrap System: Equipped with an easily swappable, hygienic safety cord channel that allows you to change your wrist strap in seconds without removing the bottom cap.
