      Which 2026 model is firmer?

      In its 2026 range guide, Nox recommends the 12K Alum Xtrem for a firmer feel and the 18K Alum for a balance of control, power and comfort. These are manufacturer descriptions. noxsport.com, dated 22 September 2025, about the 2026 range.

      This holds for these two rackets in this year. Advice written about another year, or about the Attack or Lite versions, may describe a different build. The K number alone does not settle it.

      The two differ in carbon weave count. That number is shown here and not scored, because what makers say about it is not consistent and the engineering evidence says it has little direct effect. See claims vs measurements. What does differ in the published specs is listed in the table above.
