Spec sheet.
The adidas Metalbone Carbon 2026 brings the Metalbone name to a more accessible price without losing what makes the line special. Think of it as the sweet spot of the Metalbone range: serious performance at a fair price.
The Metalbone Carbon uses a Carbon Aluminized 6K face with the same diamond shape and power-focused design as the flagship. The Soft Performance EVA core balances power and comfort, and Smart Holes on the face help with spin.
Who it suits
Players who want Metalbone power. The diamond shape gives you free pace on the smash, and the 6K face is easier to play with than the flagship's 16K.
A racket to grow into. The softer core makes it comfortable from the start, and it keeps rewarding you as your attacking game improves. For most club players, this is the Metalbone we'd recommend.
Want something softer? The Metalbone Team has a fibreglass face and is the most comfortable of the three. Compare all three Metalbones.
Key features: Diamond shape for power | Carbon Aluminized 6K face | Soft Performance EVA core | Smart Holes spin technology | Metalbone DNA at mid-range price | Weight: 360-375g
