Is it for you?
Made for
Advanced players who want a forgiving, controlled racket with a big sweet spot.
Think twice if
You want maximum smash power. A diamond-shaped racket gives you more pace overhead.
See power racketsIntroducing the Adidas Metalbone CTRL 2026, part of the new 2026 Adidas Padel range and from Ale Galán’s Metalbone family. Built for control-first play, it delivers precise placement, quick handling and easy, comfortable power when you choose to attack.
Key features:
- Round shape, high control: More weight near the grip for faster reactions and cleaner defensive shots.
- Carbon Aluminised 16K face: Firm, solid response for accurate ball striking and confident counters.
- Soft Performance EVA: Low-density core that adds comfort and lively ball exit to balance the firmer face.
- Extra Power Grip: Slightly longer handle for added inertia and stability on contact.
- Low Poly frame geometry: Angular frame and core increase stiffness to turn effort into power.
- Power Groove: Rail in the profile that boosts structural rigidity for a cleaner hit.
- Octagonal Structure: Carbon tubular design reduces torsion for more precise, repeatable shots.
- Spin Blade Decal: Face texture that helps you grip the ball and add controlled spin.
Adidas Weight and Balance System:
Fine-tune up to 11.2 g with Adidas’ signature Weight and Balance System. Shift the weight distribution to adjust balance and sweet-spot feel, then dial in swing weight and stability so the racket plays exactly how you like. Simple, effective and personal.
Who it is for:
- Players who value control, placement and fast handling
- Advanced and frequent players who want a firmer, precise face with comfortable impact
- Counter-attackers and defenders who like quick reactions, then finish with accuracy

Warranty and parallel import
Parallel import. This product is 100% genuine and brand new. We import it ourselves, so your warranty is handled by Padel Solution, not by the brand's South African distributor.
Parallel import
Our products are parallel imports. We import them into South Africa ourselves instead of buying them through each brand's official South African distributor. Every product is 100% genuine and brand new: parallel import describes how a product reached South Africa, not what it is.
Who handles your warranty
Padel Solution does. Because our products do not come through the brand's official South African distributor, that distributor will not accept warranty claims for them, so please bring any claim to us and we will handle it for you.
Warranty period
The warranty period follows each brand's own policy, and you always keep the six-month warranty on defective goods that the Consumer Protection Act gives you. How long a claim takes to process depends on the brand.
What is covered
Manufacturing defects, up to the amount you paid for the product. It does not cover damage caused by improper use, mishandling or accidents (for example hitting the glass, wall or floor), or normal wear and tear.
How to claim
WhatsApp us on 078 835 6431 or email support@padelsolution.co.za with your order number and clear photos of the problem. Claims are handled in line with our Returns and Refunds Policy.
Can I return or exchange it?
Unused items in their original packaging can be returned or exchanged within 7 days of delivery. If your order arrives damaged or you received the wrong item, let us know within 48 hours. Read our full returns policy.
Can I pay it off?
Yes. Choose Float at checkout to split your order into up to 6 interest-free monthly instalments on the credit card you already have. How Float works.
