The adidas Metalbone Padel Racket 2026 is engineered for aggressive, high-level players who demand maximum power, precision, and customisation. Built around adidas’ most advanced technologies, this racket delivers explosive attacking performance while allowing you to fine-tune the feel to perfectly match your playing style.
With its diamond-shaped head and head-heavy balance, the Metalbone 2026 is unapologetically offensive. It rewards confident hitters with devastating smashes, fast volleys, and penetrating overheads, making it a true weapon for players who like to dominate rallies.
At the heart of the Metalbone lies the Weight & Balance System Metalbone. The improved removable weight system allows you to adjust the racket’s overall weight by up to 11.2 grams, giving you complete control over balance, swing weight, and responsiveness depending on match conditions or personal preference.
The racket’s Carbon Aluminised 16K face combines carbon fibre with aluminium to create an exceptionally rigid and durable surface. This harder touch is ideal for hard-hitting players who want to fully transfer arm speed into the ball, delivering raw, uncompromising power.
Technologies such as Low Poly frame design and Power Groove reinforce the racket’s structure, increasing stiffness and enhancing power output on every shot. The Extra Power Grip further boosts inertia thanks to its extended length, giving extra leverage on smashes and overheads.
To ensure control doesn’t get lost in the pursuit of power, the Metalbone 2026 features an Octagonal Structure carbon tubular frame that reduces torsion and improves shot accuracy. The Spin Blade Decal textured face enhances grip on the ball, helping you generate heavier spin on volleys, viboras, and kick smashes.
A Soft Performance EVA core balances the stiffness of the frame and face, offering excellent ball
