Specifications
The AT10 Pro Cup Soft 2026 delivers a comfortable, forgiving all-rounder built on the same mould and technologies as the Pro Cup Hard, but with a HR3 Soft EVA core that favors easy ball output and arm comfort over raw firmness. Defense, net play and the bandeja and víbora are all comfortable zones, while smashes and flat attacking shots ask the player to supply more of the pace personally. This is a racket for players who value control, comfort and consistency over maximum explosiveness, whether they are advanced players building points patiently or intermediate players moving up who want a forgiving tool to grow into.
- Arm friendly impact backed by the Pulse System.
- Easy ball output and strong rebound from the baseline.
- Generous sweet spot for the category.
- Stable, controlled volleys and reliable chiquita play.
- Lacks the punch of the Pro Cup Hard on flat attacking shots.
- Smashes depend on the player supplying pace rather than the racket.
The NOX AT10 Pro Cup Hard 2026 delivers a firm, precise identity built on an aluminised fiberglass face and an HR3 Hard EVA core inside a carbon frame, carrying forward the 2025 mould. Control at the net and on the bandeja stand out as clear strengths, and the EOS Flap keeps the racket from feeling sluggish despite its attacking intent. The sweet spot itself is more generous than the racket's firm reputation implies, though it still gives up some ground to the softer AT10 Pro Cup Soft, so this is a racket for advanced players, and players moving toward that level, who already build points with intent and are willing to work for their defense.
- Direct contact with a clean, fast rebound.
- Strong control at the net and on a well prepared bandeja.
- EOS Flap keeps handling quick despite the attacking build.
- Sweet spot is more generous in absolute terms than its firm reputation suggests.
- Dynamic Composite Structure reduces the risk of fiber damage on edge contact.
- Less forgiving than its own AT10 Pro Cup Soft sibling.
- Defense demands early preparation and clean technique.
- Touch on drop shots is precise rather than soft.
