Is it your racket?
We'd rather you buy the right one than this one.
You'll love it if
- you want diamond power without a stiff carbon face
- you like finishing points with smashes and drives
- you want a comfortable feel on big swings
Maybe not if
- you’re new to padel, a round, softer racket is kinder
- you want a control-first racket, try a round shape
The Adidas Metalbone Team 2026 takes the attacking Metalbone formula and puts it in a more comfortable fibreglass package. Adidas builds it for high-level and frequent players, and it suits intermediate and advanced attackers who want real power without the stiffness of a full carbon face.
It’s a diamond shape with a high balance, so the weight sits towards the head for extra punch on smashes and drives. The fibreglass face and low-density Soft Performance EVA core give a comfortable feel and good ball output, and it weighs 360-375g.
The Octagonal Structure frame reduces torsion for more precise shots, the Low Poly design adds stiffness, and the Extra Power Grip gives you more leverage on big swings. Spin Blade Gritt texture on the face helps you grip the ball for spin. If you like to attack but want a racket that’s kinder on the arm than the carbon Metalbones, it’s a great option.
