Adidas Metalbone Reserve EDT 2026 padel racket description
The Adidas Metalbone Reserve EDT 2026 is a performance padel racket created for advanced and professional players who want to dominate the game through attack. The diamond shape, high balance and sweet spot positioned at the top favour excellent power on smashes, volleys and other attacking shots.
The Carbon Aluminized 16K faces offer stiffness and stability on impact, letting players with good technique transfer force efficiently to the ball. At the same time, the EVA Soft Performance core adds comfort and a consistent ball exit, resulting in an interesting combination of a firm surface and a more elastic interior.
Carbon Aluminized 16K for an attacking game
16K aluminised carbon combines carbon fibre with aluminium for a firmer touch and a resistant structure. This set-up especially suits players who accelerate their arm hard and want the racket to respond directly on decisive shots.
The diamond shape and head-heavy balance complete the model’s attacking character, increasing inertia and helping generate more ball speed when the point needs to be finished.
Structure optimised for stiffness and stability
Octagonal Structure technology reinforces the racket’s structure for a more stable, precise response, while the Low Poly design uses polyhedral shapes in key areas of the frame and heart for more efficient distribution of the forces generated on impact.
Power Groove adds structural stiffness, while Structural Reinforcement strengthens the construction to better withstand the demands of intensive play.
Extra Power Grip and spin technologies
The extended Extra Power Grip handle increases the distance between the base of the handle and the top of the racket, increasing inertia during the swing. The result is extra speed and power, especially on smashes and other attacking shots.
For spin shots, Adidas combines Spin Blade Decal, the texture applied to the racket surface, with Smart Holes Curve technology, which optimises the hole layout. These technologies make it easier to control the ball and put spin on the bandeja, the vibora and slice shots.
