Who is the Metalbone Carbon 2026 for?
For experienced attacking players who want the Metalbone's diamond shape and high balance without dealing with counterweights. If you prefer a round racket with the same materials, look at the Metalbone Carbon Ctrl; if you want to adjust the weight, Ale Galán's Metalbone 2026 includes the Weight & Balance System.
Strengths
- Made to attack: diamond shape and high balance geared towards the smash.
- No fuss: no screws or counterweights, weight and balance come fixed.
- Spin: rough Spin Blade Decal surface with a matt finish.
Things to consider
- At 360–375 g with a high balance, it can tire the arm in long matches if you are not used to it.
- The weight cannot be adjusted: the Metalbone and Metalbone Ctrl cover that.
