Our impression
The Metalbone Carbon 3.5 is Ale Galán's current working tool: much more comfortable and controlled than the hard HRD+, without losing the characteristic Metalbone punch. The 16K aluminised carbon face still delivers punchy, aggressive shots, while the EVA Soft Performance core makes the racket more playable at high swing speed than the HRD+ version.
At 365 g, it is mid-range in our comparison – light enough for quick volleys, heavy enough to take hard balls with stability. Head shape Diamond means: mass high up, a small, high sweet spot – maximum power, but less margin on off-centre hits than round and teardrop; the high balance puts the mass to work on the smash, but puts more strain on the arm. The medium-hard core balances feedback and comfort. With power 9 and control 6 out of 10, it is clearly built for power.
With a forgiveness rating of 3.3 out of 10, it remains demanding, but it is more forgiving than 62% of the diamond-shaped rackets in our comparison. 8 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €140.76 to €207.35 – a €67 difference for the same model.
Who is the Adidas Metalbone Carbon 3.5 2026 for?
Intermediate to pro players who want Galán's power diamond with a little more comfort and control.
