The Nox Equation Advanced Soft 2026 is the latest version of NOX's best-selling all-round racket. Designed for players who want maximum comfort and a controlled feel, it features a round shape and medium balance that keep the racket stable and easy to manoeuvre.
The HR3 Soft EVA core softens impact, reducing vibrations and making it an excellent option for long sessions or players prone to arm fatigue. Its carbon frame and 3K fibreglass face deliver a mix of resilience and playability, while the Exclusive Spin rough surface (3D hexagonal texture plus a sandy finish) gives better grip on the ball for spin and precision. Finished with Smartstrap® and the Anti-Vibration System (AVS) for comfort and safety, this is one of the most user-friendly rackets in NOX's 2026 range: smooth, forgiving and consistent from every position.
