8.3 / 10
Based on 1 expert review Best for: One of the easiest rackets to learn the game on, I believe that every padel player should have some time on the court with the ML10. It has a massive sweet spot, high maneuverability, and high comfort.
Shape: Round
Weight: 368g
Balance: Head Light
Pros
- Control is easy at low speeds, while at high speeds, it can be difficult to manage due to it's trampoline effect.
- The sweet spot never ends. It is the largest sweet spot I've ever played with.
- Extremely fast and easy to maneuver. It can be easily used by those who are still perfecting their technique.
Cons
- This is not the racket for power. It absorbs the ball on impact, and it has low balance.

About the NOX ML10 Pro Cup
ML10 Pro Cup
_There are a lot of versions of this racket, the Pro Cup version, this model without the “Luxury” monicker is the softer fiberglass version that is recommended for beginners. _
The Nox ML10, named after the epic Miguel Lamperti is the best-selling racket of all time due to its ease of use. It is our go to racket for new entrants to the game because it is easy to learn the game with. It encourages dropping tennis habits that obstruct learning “true” padel.
Playing with one is like checking a box, “now I’ve actually played padel.” Every player needs some time on the court with an ML10.
It has a fiberglass surface and a round shape, which gives it a massive sweet spot, and it has a low balance (ratio of weight from head to handle), which means it won’t slow you down on the court.
It will not cause elbow pain, it’s a great option for those who have struggled with heavy rackets that have hurt their joints.
It will not help you drill holes in the game, but it will help you in the defense…a lot.
