Adidas Metalbone 09

“Aimed squarely at advanced players who want to finish points from the net, the Adidas Metalbone 09 2025 pairs a diamond shape with head-heavy balance and a fibreglass face to deliver genuine overhead punch. Our overall PRR score of 84/100 reflects a racket built for aggression, with a power score of 82 and control at 76 rewarding clean, committed swings. The EVA Soft Performance core takes some edge off impact, but a comfort score of 70 means arm-sensitive players will want to manage session length carefully.”

Lok Maxx Hype

“The Lok Maxx Hype Gen 2 is a raw power weapon built for aggressive attackers who want to punish high balls and finish points at the net with authority. The diamond shape combined with a head-heavy balance and EVA core delivers a satisfying, punchy response on smashes and drives, though the demanding sweet spot and reduced maneuverability mean off-centre mishits are punished and quick exchanges can feel laboured. Advanced players who dominate from the back with a complete, consistent game will get the most from this racket, while those still refining technique may find it unforgiving.”
