About the X-FOAM JMA 16mm
The NOX X-FOAM JMA 16 mm is a balanced, versatile pickleball paddle developed with Jhonnatan Medina Alvarez (JMA), 2026 PPA Tour Barcelona 250 Singles Gold Medalist, known for his tactical intelligence and complete command of the game.
Who it’s for: intermediate to advanced players who play the whole court (driving from the baseline, resetting in transition and battling at the kitchen) and want one paddle that does all of it well.
The hybrid shape balances reach with a generous sweet spot, so off-center hits stay on line. The 16 mm X-FOAM core pairs power with soft touch and absorbs vibration, making the JMA one of the most comfortable paddles in the NOX lineup. The textured raw carbon face adds spin on serves, drives and dinks.
Whether you’re defending from the baseline, attacking at the net or resetting the point, the X-FOAM JMA 16 mm gives you touch, stability and spin when the rally speeds up.
The paddle that lets you dictate the rhythm of the game, with intelligence, intensity and ambition.
JMA Signature: play smart, play bold.
