Where to Buy
Pros
- With the aerial game, you need to make more effort with your arm because otherwise the ball doesn’t come out with much power.
- At the net, its easy to maneuver and control. Not a power racket. Its weight, the roughness and the ability to control the ball’s placement helps us in the aerial game.
- Very maneuverable in the back of the court. Helps us with defense.
Cons
- May not suit all play styles

About the Adidas Metalbone Carbon
Metalbone Carbon
The Metalbone Carbon is 2023’s affordable addition to the Adidas Metalbone line.
It does not have the weight and balance customization system of the Metalbones.
With its soft core and 6K carbon fiber surface, it is a soft racket, which aims to provide players with versatility and comfort.
It will be great for your overhead game with its 3D Spin Blade roughness and the weight in its head.
