Arronax AT10 18K Carbon Fiber Padel Racket — 3D Matte EVA Core
The Sweet Spot Between Club and Competitive.
The Arronax AT10 is designed for players making the transition from regular club play to competitive padel. Its 18K carbon fiber surface — woven at a 45-degree twill angle — delivers a stiffer, more responsive face than standard carbon constructions, while the 3D matte finish adds surface texture that improves ball grip at contact for better spin and control on technical shots.
The round shape keeps the sweet spot centred and forgiving, giving you a larger margin for error on off-centre strikes — critical when you're pushing your game to the next level and facing faster, more varied ball speeds. The black EVA foam core absorbs vibration behind that textured face, keeping your arm comfortable through long training sessions and competitive matches.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does 45-degree twill weave mean for a padel racket?
In a standard carbon weave, fibres run parallel to the frame edges. A 45-degree twill rotates the weave diagonally, distributing stress more evenly across the face under impact. This produces a more uniform stiffness across the hitting surface and can improve torsional stability — meaning the racket resists twisting on off-centre strikes better than a standard weave orientation.
What does the 3D matte surface finish do?
The 3D matte finish creates a micro-textured surface on the carbon face. This texture increases friction between the racket and ball at contact, allowing players to impart more spin and maintain better control on technical shots — particularly slices, lobs, and angled wall shots. It's a meaningful upgrade over a smooth carbon surface for players who rely on touch and spin.
Is the round shape right for me?
The round shape places the sweet spot in the centre of the face, producing the largest effective hitting area of any padel racket shape. It's the most forgiving option — ideal for players who are still developing consistency or who play an all-round game that mixes attack and defence. If you're transitioning from club to competitive play, the round shape gives you the reliability to focus on improving your game without fighting your equipment.
How does the AT10 compare to the Arronax Vertuo 2.5?
The Vertuo 2.5 uses a 24K carbon surface and is positioned for advanced players who want maximum stiffness and precision. The AT10's 18K carbon and round shape make it more forgiving and better suited to intermediate players stepping up their game. If you're not yet at advanced club level, the AT10 is the stronger choice — it will grow with your game without punishing inconsistencies in technique.
How does the AT10 compare to the Arronax Hack 02?
The Hack 02 uses an aramid fiber surface for a softer, more elastic feel — ideal for touch and spin-oriented players. The AT10's 18K carbon surface is stiffer and more direct, better suited to players who want a balance of power and control with a forgiving round shape. Choose the Hack 02 for feel; choose the AT10 for a more structured, power-balanced performance.
