Control and Power with Edu Alonso
The NOX Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM 2027 by Edu Alonso is a professional all-round padel racket for players who want to combine control, stability and power. The racket features a redesigned teardrop shape, balanced weight distribution and a medium-hard feel.
With its 12K XTREM Carbon, MLD Black EVA core and weight of 360–375 grams, the Ventus Hybrid delivers a firm and direct playing feel. Thanks to the adjustable Weight Balance System, you can also customise the racket to suit your personal preferences.
Why Choose the NOX Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM 2027?
The 12K XTREM Carbon consists of high-quality woven carbon fibres that provide high stiffness and a stable response. The special fibre structure helps distribute energy more evenly during ball contact. This creates a firm hitting surface that responds precisely when you strike the ball.
The MLD Black EVA core combines different material densities. This supports ball output and control during defensive shots, while the core provides sufficient responsiveness for powerful attacking shots at higher swing speeds.
The redesigned EOS Tunnel construction improves aerodynamics and manoeuvrability. With the Weight Balance System, you can also add interchangeable 2-gram and 4-gram weights, up to a maximum of 8 grams, to further customise the racket's weight and balance.

Who Is This Padel Racket Suitable For?
The NOX Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM 2027 is designed for advanced and professional players looking for a versatile padel racket with firm and direct ball contact. Its teardrop shape and balanced weight distribution make it suitable for players who build points with control while also looking to play aggressively.
Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM or Ventus Hybrid 12K Lite 2027? Both models combine a teardrop shape with MLD Black EVA and a medium-hard feel. The main differences lie in their weight and carbon construction.
The Ventus Hybrid 12K XTREM weighs 360–375 grams and uses the stiffer 12K XTREM Carbon. The Ventus Hybrid 12K Lite weighs just 350–360 grams and uses 12K Carbon. The XTREM places greater emphasis on stability and a solid response, while the Lite is particularly interesting for players looking for a lighter and more manoeuvrable racket.
