Adidas Metalbone Team Light 3.3 is a lightweight racket designed with control, maneuverability and tolerance in mind.

With a weight close to 345 grams and a round head shape, you get a padel racket that gives you the freedom to play a fast and stable defense. As with the other rackets in the Metalbone series, Team Light 3.3 has a rigid frame, but both the surface and the core are made of soft materials. This means the racket is gentle on the arm and elbow, while the soft materials and neutral weight distribution mean you can still speed up the ball without having to use too much effort.

Metalbone Team Light 3.3 comes with a rough, sandpaper-like surface and in conjunction with Adidas' other technologies, it is designed to make it easier to generate spin on the ball.

Weight: 345-360 grams

Technologies Applied in Adidas Metalbone Team Light 3.3

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.

Fibre Glass

Adidas operates with 8 different types of fibres, each type having different properties that influence the power and control ratio of the racket. This racket is made with fiberglass in the surface, which is Adidas' most flexible fiber. This provides you with a forgiving and comfortable contact with the ball in your strokes. This is also the most gentle surface for those who struggle with elbow and shoulder strain injuries. 

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 Gritt

This technology involves a rough, sandy surface on the racket that gives you an improved ball feel. 

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.

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.
