Nox Genius 12K Alum Xtrem Lite 2027 by Agustín Tapia
Pairs well with
The lightest frame in the Genius family. Teardrop head, 350–360 g, and a soft core — the Genius mould for players who want the handling without the weight.
Two things separate it from the rest of the range. The core is HR3 White EVA rather than MLD Black, which is noticeably softer and gives you more dwell on the ball and more comfort through the arm. And it is 10–15 g lighter, which you feel most in defence and on quick volley exchanges, where a 375 g frame starts arriving late.
The face is still 12K Alum XTREM carbon — the same rectangular weave that cuts fibre waviness by half, with an aluminised finish for consistent stiffness in the heat. VCS damping takes about 56% of the wrist impact out against the previous generation, and Weight Balance lets you add up to 8 g back in if you decide you want it.

Buy this if you want a premium frame that will not wear your arm out — lighter, softer, and still the Genius mould. If you want the full weight and a firmer core, go Genius 12K Alum Xtrem.
Not sure which shape?
Round: sweet spot in the middle, most forgiving. Teardrop: the middle ground, suits most club players. Diamond: sweet spot high, maximum power, least forgiving.
Shipping, returns and care
Free shipping Australia-wide on orders over $100. 30-day returns on unused items in original condition. Fit protector tape before first use and keep the frame out of a hot car — heat damages padel rackets far more often than impact does. Covered by a 12-month manufacturer warranty against defects.
