“The Adidas Metalbone Carbon 2026 is a diamond power frame at 375 g with an EVA performance core and Carbon 6K face, built for advanced players who want serious overhead aggression. Power at 86 leads the profile. Control at 72 and tolerance at 65 are low: clean, committed technique is essential. Comfort at 66 confirms this is a demanding frame. Our score: 84/100.”
“On paper the HRD+ 2026 is the 2025 HRD+ 3.4 again: the same head-heavy diamond, the same Carbon Aluminized 16K face over High Memory EVA. The one new part adidas lists is a padded, adjustable wrist cord. So it scores like the 3.4: power 92, control 72, manoeuvrability 67, comfort 64 and tolerance 63. It gives you a lot of racket on the overhead and very little back on a late block or a ball off the frame. Value falls to 71 because the 2025 is discounted and this one is not yet, so our score is 88, one under the 3.4.”
