The verdict
The adidas Metalbone Pro EDT 2025 Limited hits hard — this is a power-first weapon wrapped in collector-worthy aesthetics. With a 89 power rating, it delivers explosive pace on smashes and drives that intermediate players will immediately feel. Control sits at a respectable 81, keeping shots disciplined without demanding pro-level precision. The comfort score of 72 is the one honest trade-off — extended sessions may test your arm.

The series story
Adidas Metalbone
Ale Galán's power weapon with adjustable weights
The Metalbone is Adidas's flagship power series and the racket most associated with Ale Galán. Its signature trick has always been adjustability — the weight-and-balance system lets you tune the frame between faster handling and heavier hitting, something no other mainstream flagship offers. The family spans the mainline Metalbone, the harder-hitting HRD+, the softer Carbon, and the entry-level Team, with numbered generations (3.3, 3.4) giving way to a clean model-year naming in 2026. Flagship editions sit in the high 80s to low 90s on the PRR scale, generation after generation.
Which one should you buy?
The 2026 Metalbone HRD+ (PRR 91) is the line at its best — buy it if you are an advanced attacker and can handle a demanding frame. The standard 2026 Metalbone (PRR 90) is barely behind and slightly more forgiving. The 3.4 generation remains excellent value as retailers clear stock, while the Carbon and Team editions serve improvers who want the silhouette without the demands.
2024
Metalbone 3.3
The adjustable-weight formula matures: diamond shape, aggressive balance, and the HRD+ edition (PRR 88) for players who want maximum stiffness.
