Adidas Metalbone 3.2 Padel Racket

The long awaited Metalbone 3.2 has finally arrived! The experienced padel player gets the latest version of the highly popular power racket, which scores high on both the design and technology fronts.

First of all, a diamond-shaped racket head and a neutral balance ensure you plenty of power. This is supported by the densely woven carbon fibres in the racket's surface, which facilitate efficient energy transfer and even more power in your strokes.

The racket also has Adidas' unique Weight & Balance System installed, allowing you to adjust the weight distribution and make the racket weigh up to 12 grams less if you remove the small weights. This way, you can customize the racket's playing characteristics to match your preferences.

Compared to the Metalbone HRD 3.2, the Metalbone 3.2's softer core helps make the racket more forgiving and comfortable to play with. However, the Metalbone HRD 3.2 offers you even more power due to the harder core and its head-heavy balance.

All in all, a top shelf power racket in Adidas' Metalbone collection.

Weight: 345-360 grams 

Technologies Applied in Adidas Metalbone 3.2

EVA Soft Performance

The racket's core is made of low density EVA rubber to give you response and high comfort. This is the softest of the three types of foam that Adidas works with in their top rackets. Adidas' rackets produced with this type of rubber is marked with a black cap.

Carbon Aluminized

Adidas operates with 6 different types of fibers, each type having different properties that influence the power and control ratio of the racket. This racket is made with "Carbon Aluminized 2 to 1", which is Adidas' least flexible fiber. This provides the greatest transfer of energy in the stroke and therefore the highest level of power.

Octagonal Structure

The small carbon tubes in the racket are designed in an octagonal format, making the construction of the Metalbone series stiffer than other rackets. The aim is to reward the aggressive player who continuously hits the ball well.

Spin Blade Octagonal

In the Metalbone series, Adidas use their Spin Blade Octagonal technology, which is an octagonal surface structure that enables you to add more spin to the ball.

Smart Holes Curve

A strategic placement of the racket's hole pattern that optimizes sweetspot and grip of the ball.

Structural Reinforcement

The entire racket head has been reinforced to make it even more durable and resistant to the stress and torsion that the material is exposed to.

Weight & Balance System

Adidas' innovative weight & balance system with 6 small screws weighing a total of 12 grams, which you can reposition (or remove) to adjust the balance of the rakcet to perfectly suit your preferences. When the screws are in, the racket's weight balance is medium to low, giving it more control. If you remove the screws, the racket becomes lighter and the balance moves up to 1.5 cm providing additional power.
