Right now I got the nox at10 12k 2025. If this is the best one. I will stick with it :)

Please ask questions if you need anymore information to make the most informed decision:)

I’ve had it since April 2026. Played like 1-2 times a week consistently with it.

Not sure what I’d change tbh. I think I like it but I’ve only ever had the Dunlop Inferno Pro Carbon before and I really like the Nox compared to the Dunlop. Massive upgrade.

I’d say it’s maybe a bit light? But I think I like it the lightness for manoeuvrability and for most of the gameplay styles, other than maybe the smashes.
I got the 12k coz it’s supposed to be harder and hit more powerfully but maybe I should change to the 18k for more control?

I got the Nox because I struggle to generate power but have great control.

About me:
• I’m small
• I’m very fast and agile on the court
• play mostly right side but like the left side. Get pushed to the right side coz im smaller than 90% of teammates. (Same height as chingotto)
• great defence
• good lobs, bajadas, viboras
• struggle with smashes of all types, bandejas
• decent tennis background, playing padel for a year
• had a few lessons which improved my mistakes drastically very quickly.
• good backhand (from being forced to play right side so much)

left side fun as its very attacking. I think I’d like to get better at left side so I can stop getting forced to play right side. And maybe have more fun?
I can still attack from the right side tho right? I’ve seen small people do por tres from the right side to the right side.
But should I play to my strengths and accept that I am going to be a right sided player for the rest of my padel career and become the best chingotto I can be?

Don’t think I missed anything. Please let me know if you need more clarification. And I really appreciate it :):)

Hello. New to Reddit and padel.

I have been playing padel for about 7 months properly but only like 1-2 times a week with my friends.

I had been improving very quickly very fast but am now getting very frustrated and making mistakes.

I am really wanting to get lessons now and improve as I’ve hit a plateau.

I have been looking for lessons around my area but it’s so hard to find a coach that can do the hours I am free.
Because of normal work hours I can’t do any lessons until after 6 on weekdays and all the coaches I’ve found only work weekdays from 9-4.

It would be much easier for me to do lessons on the weekends as I don’t have to ask work for anything about making up hours or taking a holiday day just for a 1-2h lesson. But I haven’t found any coaches who do weekends :(

I was wondering if there was an app or website which can help me find a good coach for a reasonable price. Please let me know :)

I have a friend who knows a tennis coach who’s played padel for 7 years and is willing to give lessons. But again only 9-4. He charges £52 for an hour.
I was wondering if that’s a good price?

I am in the UK North London area.

Please let me know anything you know or find. Thank you :):)

TLDR;
Looking for lessons around North London for weekends anytime
Or weekdays from 6pm
And any & all apps or websites to find the right coach & places & lessons (1:1 and group)
