In shortPlayers find it manoeuvrable, forgiving and easy on the arm, with good control and a big sweet spot. The main complaint is a soft, trampoline-like feel, worse in warm weather and on blocks, and many want more power on smashes. Several report cracking.

Showing 8 reviews mentioning forgiving Show all

Italian player who has owned five AT10s since 2022 calls the 18K 2025 the most complete: softer than the 12K 2025 yet more forgiving, with a more even face, more control and easy ball exit. All recent AT10s are very manoeuvrable, good in defence and easy on the arm, but not power rackets and a bit short on flat smashes.

“la 18k 2025 la più completa di quelle con cui ho giocato, più morbida della 12k 2025 ma più permissiva secondo me da maggior sensazione di omogeneità del piatto e maggior controllo ha uscita di palla più facile”

Plays the AT10 18K 2025 and finds it excellent overall: a big sweet spot, very manoeuvrable, comfortable in defence and great on spin shots. It feels a bit flat on flat smashes and flat hits, though kick smashes work well (post in Italian).

Really enjoys the AT10 18K: forgiving, with a large sweet spot, though it doesn't fully make up for power. Their only hesitation about buying another is a worry that Nox rackets crack within a year, a general concern rather than a breakage of their own.

“However as a racket I really enjoy at10 18k it is forgiving large sweet spot but still not totally compensated for power.”
positiveforgiving

Left-side player who plays six days a week calls it an almost perfect racket: easy to manoeuvre with a large sweet spot, great with slow and medium balls thanks to its medium feel, good in defence, and precise on volleys with lots of spin. The downsides are a flat smash that lacks finishing power from deep and a slightly slow feel in very fast games.

“it's a fantastic training racket, rewards clean technique, but doesn't punish you too harshly.”

Has tried both the Nox and the Siux Electra ST4. Finds the Nox the easier racket: more manoeuvrable, forgiving, comfortable and versatile. Earlier in the thread they also call it too soft for their taste, with a trampoline effect that hurts control, and advise trying both.

Show quote
“Personally and more detail, the Nox is an easier racket for sure. More manuevarable, more forgiving, more comfortable, more versatile. The St4 has better design, better power, better control, but definitely for more aggresive player.”
mixedforgivingsoft

A left-handed intermediate player with fast volleys who finds their 2025 AT10 18K too forgiving and short on power, and wants something more aggressive.

Show quote
“My problem with my current racket is that its too forgiving and i can't feel too much power out of it”
mixedforgiving

Played the 2025 AT10 18K for a full year and still likes it a lot, especially its manoeuvrability and big sweet spot, but moved on because of its bounciness.

Show quote
“I played with Nox at10 18k 2025 for a whole year. Liked and still like it alot, especially the maneuverability and big sweet spot. The reason i changed from it is the bounciness.”
mixedforgiving

Owns the 12K and 18K 2025; the 18K is very comfortable in cold winter temperatures.

“La 18K sin embargo es comodisima para estas temperaturas. En primavera-verano, seguro que la 12K es perfecta.”
