Adidas Metalbone HRD+ 3.4

The Adidas Metalbone HRD+ 3.4 2025 carries the Metalbone name into round-head territory, pairing an EVA foam core with a carbon face to produce a surprisingly explosive option for intermediate players. Power at 92 is exceptional for this level, and smashes off the back glass come out fast and heavy. Control at 72 and comfort at 64 are the compromises: expect some arm feedback and be ready to work for placement. PRR score: 89/100.

Bullpadel Neuron 25

The Neuron 25 hands the flagship Neuron's build, multilayer EVA behind a Carbon 3K face, to the intermediate bracket, and the translation works. Power 87 gives improving attackers a real overhead; control 82 keeps the rest of the game from unravelling while technique catches up. The even-balance round profile is easy to live with in fast exchanges, and value 78 makes the price defensible. It still hits firmer than typical intermediate frames (comfort 69, tolerance 68), so players stepping up from a soft beginner racket will notice the extra honesty. A convincing bridge to tour-style padel.
