This high-end racket stands out for its exceptional build quality and durability, reinforced at key points of the frame to withstand intense gameplay. Its balanced weight range (345–360g) ensures excellent maneuverability while maintaining enough mass for powerful shots, making it comfortable to handle even during long matches.

For this version of the Metalbone 3.5, Adidas integrates EVA Soft Performance foam. This softer-density foam absorbs vibrations effectively, offering superior comfort and a more forgiving feel on impact. It also provides a controlled ball (output), making it easier to handle under pressure while still delivering sufficient power.

The racket surface is made from high-quality carbon fiber, offering a great compromise between stiffness and flexibility. This results in consistent power generation without sacrificing comfort, allowing players to execute both aggressive smashes and controlled shots with confidence.

At the frame level, the octagonal carbon structure enhances rigidity and stability, translating into improved power and durability. This design also helps reduce torsion on off-center hits, increasing overall precision.

For players who enjoy adding spin, Adidas incorporates Spin Blade technology along with Smart Holes Curves. The textured surface combined with a curved drilling pattern improves ball grip, allowing for greater spin and control in slices, bandejas, and kick smashes.

One of the standout features of the Metalbone range remains the customizable Weight & Balance System. Players can adjust the weight and balance of the racket by adding or removing small weights, tailoring it to their personal playing style—whether they prefer more head-heavy power or a lighter, maneuverable feel.
