Intermediate to advanced · 12K carbon · 360–370g
The NOSSA Core is designed to adapt to your game, not force it into one style. Light in the hand with a slight head-heavy balance, it moves quickly at the net, stays stable under attack, and delivers real power when you commit — without the dull, stiff response common in carbon rackets at this level. It is built for the intermediate-to-advanced player who wants genuine versatility: confident on defence, sharp on attack, and equally at home on the left or right of the court.
We paired a 12K carbon face with an EVA-15 core to give a softer hitting sensation — the ball dwells a fraction longer on contact, so you get genuine feedback on bandejas, touch volleys and defensive blocks, while the teardrop frame stores the energy you need for emphatic smashes and lifted lobs. Most rackets in this category force a trade-off between power and control. Core is engineered to sit between the two, with a large, centred sweet spot that forgives off-centre hits and maintains stability through the court.

Player Reviews
Reviewed by LTA Level 2 Coach Liam (@padelcoachliam)
“It was mega testing out the NOSSA racket this week. Felt great to use whenever I was on court — super comfortable overall, with an EVA 15 foam that feels not too soft, not too firm. A great in-between, working perfectly for either side players. A racket I would definitely suggest for intermediate–advanced players, with that higher balance making sure you hit your contact slightly higher than usual for a solid connection.”

“I recently played with a NOSSA racket, and it genuinely impressed me. First of all, the unique design is fresh, modern, and instantly eye catching on the court. The build quality is excellent as well. What I liked the most is the combination of great control with a high balance. It gives you stability during rallies while still allowing you to switch to an aggressive attack whenever you need. A rare and very successful mix. I can definitely recommend NOSSA. This racket stands out both in performance and style.”

Both share the same teardrop shape, EVA-15 core and 243-step build. The difference is the face material, and who they are built for.
What's Inside the Core
The materials, the layers, the choices.
9 Months. 14 Revisions.
Walk into a padel shop and you are hit with it:
Pro Ultra Max 2026. Neural Speed System. Anti Vibration Flex Zone. Twelve icons on a sticker. A new model every few months, most of them with little more than a new graphic.
We started NOSSA to do the opposite.
The Core took nine months and fourteen revisions to get right. Every racket goes through 243 individual processes before it is ready to play, from the carbon lay up to the final finish.
We tested the frame, carbon weave, core density, weight and balance with real players and coaches, then kept refining until every detail had a reason to be there.
No cosmetic upgrades. No rushed seasonal release. No endless range to decode.
Every NOSSA racket has to earn its place.
The Core was made for players who want more from their game. More control. More confidence. More consistency. For players who care about improving, and want a racket that feels right from the first session.
Carefully Crafted Design
The Core is built for intermediate to advanced players who want a balance of power and control. If you're newer to padel or want a lighter, more forgiving racket, the NOSSA Base is the better fit.
A little. A teardrop's sweet spot sits slightly higher than a round racket's, so contact feels best a touch further up the face. Most players settle in within a few sessions, and it rewards you with more reach and power overhead.
You can request a return within 14 days of delivery, as long as the racket is unused and in its original condition. Every racket also carries a 1-year manufacturer's warranty covering manufacturing defects.
It refers to the density of carbon fibres in the weave. 12K carbon is a high-performance material: strong, light and responsive, offering stable power and clean feedback on every strike.
Most players adapt quickly, but that can vary depending on what you are currently using. The key difference should be that it feels solid, comfortable, and easy to trust from the start.

NOSSA rackets are designed to make buying simpler. Instead of overwhelming players with confusing jargon and endless variations, we focus on creating high quality rackets that feel right, look sharp, and give you confidence on court.
