What do Metalbone versions share?
On 15 October 2026, the catalogue held 20 Metalbone versions, spanning 2024, 2025 and 2026. Only 8 have shape, weight and balance recorded; their weights span 322–368 g.
Tennis-Point lists EVA, a rubber-like foam, throughout that group and rates every core soft. Shape and face material vary, so the series name alone does not identify the construction. The adidas racket overview covers the wider brand.
How do the versions differ?
Shops put model years in product names, but 5 versions have no year in the name. Do not assume an undated Superlight or Reserve is a 2026 model.
Padel Market lists the diamond Pro-edt 2026 ALE Galan at 345–360 g and Reserve EDT 2026 ALE Galan at 360–375 g. Both have EVA Soft Performance cores and Tournament ratings.
For 2025, Padel Market lists Carbon 3.4 as diamond/Power and Carbon Ctrl 3.4 as round/Control, both at 360–375 g with EVA Soft Performance. Its round Ctrl 3.4 2025 weighs 345–360 g; all carry Tournament ratings.
- Tennis-Point lists Metalbone 2026 at 352 g/265 mm and 2026 Pro at 353 g/270 mm, both diamond and Tournament/Power. The standard model’s face field names both 16K carbon and a carbon/fibreglass mix; Pro lists 16K carbon. K means thousands of filaments per carbon strand.
- Carbon 2026 and Carbon Ctrl 2026 both weigh 368 g with 3K carbon faces. Tennis-Point lists diamond/265 mm/Power for Carbon and round/260 mm/Control for Carbon Ctrl, both Tournament.
- Team 2026 is diamond, 368 g/265 mm, with a mixed carbon/fibreglass face and Tournament/Power ratings. Team Light 2026 is round, 352 g/255 mm, with fibreglass and Advanced/Control ratings, according to Tennis-Point.
- Tennis-Point lists Reserve as diamond, 368 g/260 mm, with 16K carbon, EVA Soft and Tournament/Power ratings. Superlight is diamond, 322 g/250 mm, with fibreglass, EVA Soft Performance and Beginners/Power ratings.
- Padel Market’s METALBONE Ctrl 2026 is round, 345–360 g, with EVA Soft Performance and Tournament/Control ratings. No catalogue shop had stock on the check date; balance and face are not recorded.
Which Metalbone matches your requirements?
For Tennis-Point’s Beginners rating, look at Superlight; for Advanced/Control, look at Team Light. Carbon Ctrl carries Tournament/Control ratings, while the fully specified diamond models apart from Superlight carry Tournament/Power ratings.
Use the racket finder to filter those specifications, then the racket comparison for shortlisted versions. Balance is the distance from the handle end to the balance point; the weight and balance guide explains the measurement.
Questions
