Adidas Metalbone CTRL 3.4 is a premium control racket designed for the experienced player who seeks precision in defense and power to dominate duels. The round head shape and neutral weight balance make the racket ideal for the defensive part of the game. The surface is made from Adidas' tightly woven carbon fibers, ensuring a firm contact with the ball. The upgraded core, combining Low Poly technology and EVA Soft Performance foam, provides a soft and comfortable ball response without compromising on control. The extended Power Extra Grip handle and the Power Groove track in the frame enhance the racket's stiffness and stability, making it perfect for players who seek extra performance in crucial shots.

Metalbone CTRL 3.4 takes the series' strong foundation and elevates it with advanced technologies, providing you with a racket that offers both control and power in a stylish and innovative package.

Technologies in Adidas Metalbone 3.4 CTRL

EVA Soft Performance
The core of the racket is made from soft EVA foam to provide you with responsiveness and comfort in your shots. This is the softest of the three types of foam that Adidas uses in their top rackets. Rackets with this foam are marked with a black end cap.

Carbon Aluminized 16K
The surface is made from aluminized carbon, ensuring a high level of stiffness and durability for maximum power. This results in a harder output and an improved touch on the ball.

Power Groove
A track inserted in the frame profile increases the structural stiffness and enhances the power in your shots.

Power Extra Grip
The longer handle increases the inertia and power in your shots.

Octagonal Structure
The small carbon tubes in the racket are designed in an octagonal shape, making the construction of the Metalbone series stiffer than other rackets. The goal is to reward the aggressive player who consistently hits the ball well.

Spin Blade
In the Metalbone series, Adidas uses their Spin Blade technology, which is a textured surface structure that gives you an increased feeling of control and allows you to put more spin on the ball.

Smart Holes Curve
A strategic placement of the racket's holes optimizes the sweet spot and grip on the ball.

Structural Reinforcement
The head of the racket is reinforced all around to make it more durable and resistant to the stress and twisting the material is subjected to.

Weight & Balance System
Adidas' innovative weight system consists of six small screws, totaling 12 grams, which you can move (or remove) to adjust the balance of the racket to perfectly suit your preferences. When the screws are in place, the weight balance of the racket is medium to low, giving it more control. If you remove the screws, the racket becomes lighter, and the balance shifts by up to 1.5 cm, resulting in more power.

Low Poly
Low Poly is Adidas' unique polyhedral design for the racket's frame and core, which increases stiffness and power.

3 tips to extend the lifespan of your padel racket

1. Use a frame protector

Fit a frame protector to your racket to minimise damage from contact with the court glass or metal mesh. It is a simple addition that may not look like much, but it can help extend the life of your racket by protecting it from knocks and scratches.

2. Avoid extreme temperatures

Store your racket at a stable room temperature. Over time, both very high and very low temperatures can weaken the foam in the racket core and reduce performance. Avoid leaving your racket in places such as a cold car boot or close to a hot radiator.

3. Protect your racket during transport

Keep your racket in a bag or cover to protect it from scratches, dirt and knocks. This is especially important during transport or storage between matches, as proper storage helps reduce wear and tear.

3 tips to get the most out of your padel racket

1. Choose the right racket for your level and playing style

Choose a racket that matches your level and playing style. New players may benefit from a racket with a softer face and a large sweetspot, while more experienced players often prefer a stiffer construction with more emphasis on precision or power.

2. Replace your overgrip regularly

Replacing your overgrip regularly helps maintain a fresh grip and improves comfort and control. A worn grip can cause the racket to slip in your hand and put extra strain on your wrist and forearm during play.

3. Upgrade your racket when the time is right

Over time, the foam in the racket core loses its elasticity and performance. This means you will no longer get the same response from your shots. If you have been using the same racket for several seasons or notice a drop in its performance, it is a sign that it is time to invest in a new one.
