Facolos NEXX Pickleball Paddle — Next Generation Raw Carbon | USAPA Approved
The NEXX is Facolos's most advanced paddle. Built for competitive players who demand elite-level performance, the NEXX combines next-generation aerodynamic design with premium raw carbon fibre technology to deliver a paddle that performs at the highest level of the game.
It's the paddle chosen by the Victoria Pro Team and Facolos ambassadors Mitch Hargreaves and Sahra Dennehy. If you're serious about competing, this is your paddle.
Built for the modern game
Pickleball at the competitive level is faster, more technical, and more demanding than ever. The NEXX was engineered specifically for this — a paddle that keeps up with the pace of the modern game while giving you the precision and spin control to win points at the kitchen line.
The aerodynamic frame design reduces drag on fast swings, giving you quicker hands at the net and more whip on drives. Combined with the raw carbon face, every shot — dinks, drives, rolls, and resets — benefits from maximum spin generation and consistent response across the entire face.
Why raw carbon fibre?
Raw carbon fibre is the gold standard for competitive pickleball paddles. Unlike fibreglass or composite faces, raw carbon generates significantly more surface friction, which translates directly into spin. More spin means more control over ball placement, more dangerous drops, and more deceptive dinks.
The NEXX takes this further with a multidirectional carbon weave that maximises friction from any angle — whether you're brushing up on a topspin drive or slicing a backhand drop.

Who is the NEXX for?
The NEXX is built for advanced and competitive players. If you play in tournaments, train regularly, or are pushing toward a higher level of play, the NEXX gives you the tools to get there.
It's not a beginner paddle — the raw carbon face rewards clean ball striking and technical play. But if you're ready for it, there's no better paddle on the Australian market at this price point.

The aerodynamic frame and advanced carbon weave give it an edge in speed and spin generation over the Elite X. The Elite X is the better choice for players still developing their game; the NEXX is for those ready to compete.
