Playing characteristics
Where they differ
| Characteristic | Nox AT10 Genius 18K (2024) | Tecnifibre Curva Soft (2025) |
|---|---|---|
| WeightA heavier racket is steadier and carries more of its own power but asks more of your arm; a lighter one is quicker to swing and gives less free power. | 360–370 g | 355–365 g |
| For a levelThe least experienced player the catalogue judges it suits — it is not a limit on anyone above. | Advanced | Intermediate |
| Core | EVA hardA harder core rebounds quickly, so a swing gets more power and the impact feels firmer and less forgiving. | FoamThe softest core flexes most, so it is the gentlest on your arm and gives up some power. |
| Face | Carbon 18KOne of the stiffest carbon weaves, so it adds power and a firm feel that rewards a central hit. | UnknownWe do not hold this yet, and a guessed value would mislead you more than none. |
| Sweet spot | MediumA moderate forgiving area, between precise and forgiving. | UnknownWe do not hold this yet, and a guessed value would mislead you more than none. |
| Vibration absorption | MediumSome of the shock of each impact is damped before it reaches your arm. | HighLess of the shock of each impact reaches your arm. |
| Arm-friendly | NoThe catalogue does not mark it as gentle on a sore elbow or shoulder. | YesThe catalogue marks it as gentle on a sore elbow or shoulder. |
- Shape
- Teardrop — The face is widest through the middle, between the narrower top of a round racket and the broader top of a diamond.
- Balance
- Medium — The weight sits in the middle of its length, between the head-heavy and head-light feels.
- Surface
- Rough — A textured face grips the ball on a brushed shot, so it can put more spin on it.

Which one fits you?
Being torn between two rackets on the same scale still leaves open whether either fits your game. The finder asks five questions about how you actually play, plus one optional question about the racket you use now — six questions, and up to two more only if your answers leave something ambiguous. In about five minutes it narrows the whole catalogue to the rackets that actually fit you — and explains why.
