Adidas Metalbone HRD+

“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.”

Adidas Metalbone Pro EDT 2026 Ale Galán

“Aimed squarely at advanced players who want to finish points overhead, the Adidas Metalbone PRO Edt 3.4 earns a score of 88/100 with us on the back of a standout power rating of 91. Its hybrid shape and Carbon 16K face generate genuine pace from net position, while the even balance at 270 mm keeps the frame quick enough for volleys and overhead exchanges. Control sits at 72 and comfort at 66, so this racket rewards aggressive, confident play rather than defensive construction of points.”
