Nox At10 Genius 12K Alum Xtrem Lite By Agustin Tapia

The Xtrem Lite is the 2026 AT10 built for players who want Tapia's crispness at a weight that does not tax the shoulder: 365 g, even balance, teardrop head. The 12K carbon face over an EVA core keeps the strike snappy, and maneuverability 76 means the frame is on time at the net where heavier AT10s run late. Power 85 still finishes club-level points; control 79 keeps bandejas composed. Comfort 70 and tolerance 69 are liveable for the class. Value 72 is the only modest number: you pay signature money for the lighter build. A very easy racket to play well.

Astrum Soft 15K

The Astrum Soft 15K pairs a genuinely premium 15K carbon face with a soft EVA core, positioned by StarVie as a discerning player's all-round tool rather than a narrow power or control specialist. The soft core keeps the high-grade face's response comfortable rather than harsh.
