adidas Metalbone Carbon Ctrl 3.4 Padel Racket
Control and Power, the best of both worlds
For those who like heavier control rackets, the Metalbone Carbon Ctrl 3.4 is for you. These round-shaped rackets have a hefty weight range of 360-375 grams, but are counteracted by a low balance to boost their maneuverability. The Metalbone Carbon Ctrl 3.4 aims to be stable, powerful, but above all, precise. Additionally, adidas has markedly increased the length of their handle with their Extra Power Grip, which adds more leverage and reach for length-based power, which helps round out this otherwise control-focused experience. The hitting surface is made from a more flexible 6K Carbon makeup, which helps to make this racket's hitting experience more forgiving. To help with spin production, the Spin Blade Decals grip the ball easily and consistently for cutting under, over, or across your shots. Elsewhere, the Soft Performance rubber inside the racket is made from a low density EVA that boosts comfort substantially, helping to make this frame feel more user-friendly. This control racket quickly became an in-house favorite here at Padel Warehouse, thanks to its massive upsides as far as accuracy is concerned. The racket offers a forgiving feel upon contact that facilities excellent connection to one's shots and the heavier mass does an excellent job at absorbing pace as well. For a control racket that offers long-term room to grow into, the Metalbone Carbon Ctrl 3.4 remains an excellent choice.

Technologies:
-
Soft Performance: Low-density EVA rubber that provides excellent ball output and comfort in the game. Rackets with this type of rubber are identified by the black cap.
-
Carbon 6K: Power and rigidity, along with exceptional durability. It provides greater power in quick shots like the smash and offers better control because, being stiffer, the material doesn't absorb the force we apply and eliminates the spring effect. As it is less flexible, the ball exit in slow shots is lower.
- Octagonal Structure: Exclusive octagonal design of the carbon tube. The 8 edges stiffen the structure making the METALBONE racket ideal for the most aggressive players.
-
Power Extra Grip: The longer grip transfers more mass towards the head of the racket and shifts the sweet spot towards the top. This increases inertia and favors power in the shots.
-
Low Poly: Exclusive METALBONE. The polyhedral design of the frame and the heart of the racket provide greater rigidity and power in the strokes.
-
Spin Blade Decal: This relief helps improve the sensation of control and increase the amount of spin we can impart to the ball.
-
Smart Holes Curve: This hole arrangement is specially designed to favor the generation of spin in all types of shots.
-
Structural Reinforcement: Perimeter reinforcements that allow for greater resistance to the high torsions the racket must withstand during play.
