Our impression
The Metalbone Superlight brings the diamond DNA of the power line down to an extremely light 315-330 g: a fibreglass face and an EVA Soft Performance core provide very high manoeuvrability and precise bandeja and block shots. Tests particularly praise the lightness and the low physical effort, though it naturally lacks the reserve of heavier Metalbone models for maximum punch.
At 340 g, it is lighter than three quarters of all models in our comparison: quick to handle, but more of the power in attack has to come from your own swing. 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 soft core takes the sting out of the ball and partly makes up for that. With power 6 and control 7 out of 10, it is geared slightly more towards precision than power.
With a forgiveness rating of 5.1 out of 10, it is more forgiving than 94% of the diamond-shaped rackets in our comparison. Of the 17 versions of the Adidas Metalbone in our comparison, this is the lightest (340 g). Soft core and high balance: only 12 of the 507 models we compare have this combination.
Who is the Adidas Metalbone Superlight 2026 for?
Players and young talents who put precision, comfort and manoeuvrability above maximum power.

Is the Adidas Metalbone Superlight 2026 arm-friendly?
Not by our rule: the balance is head-heavy, the diamond shape shifts the weight upwards.

Suitable models are listed in our guide to padel rackets for tennis elbow.
