Nox Genius Attack 18K Alum

Take the Nox Genius 18K Alum and keep the Carbon 18K Alum face, the MLD Black EVA core and the 360 to 375 g window. Then swap the teardrop for a diamond and the medium balance for a high one. That is this racket. Nobody has reviewed it yet, so everything below comes from the published specs.

Same face, same core: only the shape and the balance moved

The Nox Genius 18K Alum is the closest relative. Both list the same face, the same core, the same 38 mm thickness and the same weight range. Both carry the Professional level label and Agustín Tapia as the brand's player.

Two lines differ. The sibling is a teardrop with medium balance. This one is a diamond with high balance. Nothing else in the spec table separates them.

That makes the choice simple. You are not picking a different material or a different build. You are picking where the weight sits and how the head is shaped.

Why control drops from Medium to Low on a diamond

The sibling's control meter reads Medium. Here it reads Low. The reason is in the two changes.

A diamond puts its mass toward the top of the head. A high balance shifts weight toward the head as well. Both raise power, and both lower control. The stiff carbon face raises control, but not enough to offset the shape and the balance.

What does that mean for you? On paper, this racket rewards a full swing more than careful placement. Read that as a general reading of the specs, not as a court test.

The same logic hits the sweet spot meter. The hard core and the diamond shape both lower it. If you often hit off-centre, the specs suggest little forgiveness.

A Weight Balancer blister of 2-4g: what you can add and what you cannot

The brand lists a Weight Balancer blister of 2-4g. The product page describes interchangeable counterweights, with 2g and 4g pieces, that change the weight and balance of the racket. That is the brand's description, not something tested.

In practice it gives you a small lever. The racket already sits in a 360 to 375 g window, so any piece you add makes an already heavy racket heavier.

What you cannot do is turn this into a light, easy racket. The balance is labelled High, and no balance figure in mm is published. So you cannot calculate the exact change from adding a piece. Try it in steps, and stop if your arm complains.

Oversize Grip: what changed on the 2026 sheet and what the 30 mm claim covers

The 2026 version listed the handle as Oversize Grip with a 30 mm grip extension. The 2027 sheet lists only Oversize Grip. That is a changed label, not a measured change.

The product page still makes a claim. It says the Oversize Grip adds an extra 30 mm to the handle for more comfortable two-handed shots. It also says the grip shifts the balance toward the head. Treat both as the brand's claims. The 2027 spec sheet does not give a handle length in mm.

The brand also names a VCS anti-vibration system. The product page claims it reduces vibrations to the arm by 60% compared with the previous generation. It is a brand feature, and no tester has said how well it works. With a hard core and a stiff face, a high-balance diamond is still a demanding racket for the arm on paper.

Genius Attack 18K Alum or Genius Attack 12K Alum XTREM: a different face on the same diamond

The Nox Genius Attack 12K Alum XTREM is the nearest comparison inside the Attack line. It is also a diamond with high balance. It has the same MLD Black EVA core, the same 38 mm thickness and the same 360 to 375 g weight window.

The face is what differs: 12K Alum Xtrem carbon there, Carbon 18K Alum here. The meters are identical, Low for control, High for power, Low for comfort, maneuverability and sweet spot. So the meters do not separate them. You would decide on how the face material plays, and nobody has published that yet.

No court test yet, and no head size or balance in mm

No independent review and no video test exist for this racket yet. The meters are based on materials, shape, weight and balance. They are a reading of the specs, not a judgement from play.

Two useful numbers are also missing. The brand has not published a head size, and it has not published a balance in mm. Without them you cannot compare this racket exactly with others of the same shape.

So be careful. The specs describe a heavy, hard, head-heavy attacker, and the brand labels it Professional.
