The adidas Metalbone CTRL 2026 is engineered for players who demand total control with customizable balance. Designed for professional-level performance, this racket combines structural stability, precision, and versatility to adapt to every match situation.
Custom balance for controlled performance
Weight & Balance System Metalbone
The Weight & Balance System Metalbone allows you to customize the racket’s weight and balance to match your playing style perfectly. With removable weights adjustable up to 11.2 g, you can fine-tune control, stability, and feel throughout the match.
Structural precision and consistent power
Octagonal Structure, Low Poly and Power Groove
The Octagonal Structure reduces torsion and improves shot precision. The Low Poly polyhedral design enhances stiffness and power efficiency, while the Power Groove, integrated into the racket profile, reinforces the frame to deliver consistent performance and controlled power.
Solid feel and playing comfort
Carbon Aluminized 16K and Soft Performance EVA
The Carbon Aluminized 16K surface provides a solid, responsive feel and excellent durability. Inside, the Soft Performance EVA core ensures comfort, smooth ball output, and consistency across long and demanding matches.
Spin control and round-shape accuracy
Spin Blade Decal and centered sweet spot
The textured Spin Blade Decal surface enhances ball grip, allowing you to generate more spin with precision. The round shape and centered sweet spot improve control, accuracy, and reliability on defensive and placement shots.
Extra Power Grip and new padded wrist strap
Inertia, stability and comfort
The Extra Power Grip (EGP) features an extended handle that increases inertia, supporting deep and controlled strokes. New for 2026, the adjustable rope cord with padded wrist strap delivers improved comfort, safety, and wrist stability.
