Our scores, updated 9 November 2026 · How we score
Score by score
How we score →The green bar wins the round. The Metalbone takes 5 of the six, the K2 takes value.
Feel is read from the core and the face until hardness is measured.
What is different
Four things change between them. Pick one to look closer.
Carbon against fibreglass: the Metalbone's carbon is stiffer and more precise, the K2's fibreglass is softer, gives the ball more pop at low speed and forgives more.
Edge: the Metalbone, for precision
* The feel starts from the core's rated hardness (estimated from the core material where there is no rating), then the face: carbon 12K and up is firmer, fibreglass softer.
About the same weight: 360 to 375 g and 360 to 370 g.
No edge either way
Where each one balances, measured from the end of the handle. The lower the point, the more of the weight sits in your hand: the Metalbone at 270 mm, the K2 at 275 mm.
Edge: the Metalbone, for your arm
* Drawn to scale: a 455 mm racket in its shape's outline (traced from a real racket of that shape), with the balance point the shops list marked on it. Real rackets vary by a few millimetres.
Only the Metalbone is at PadelProShop right now, at €243.
