Specifiche
The adidas Metalbone CTRL 2026 is the round, low balance, control focused flagship of the Metalbone range, built around 16K aluminized carbon faces and a genuinely adjustable Weight and Balance System. It excels in defense, on the overhead game, and on off centre contact, trading some raw smash power and instant net pace for a wider, more forgiving margin. It suits an advanced to PRO player who wants to shape points with precision and is willing to fine tune the racket's setup, more than a player chasing the sharpest possible finish.
- Genuinely adjustable weight and balance through the Weight and Balance System, not a fixed configuration.
- Generous, centered sweet spot that holds up well on off centre contact.
- Reliable, low effort defense from the baseline.
- Strong, controlled overhead game on the bandeja and víbora.
- Raw power on the smash falls behind the diamond shaped Metalbone models.
- Net play needs a moment to accelerate rather than delivering instant pace.
- Getting the most from the Weight and Balance System takes deliberate setup, not a plug and play adjustment.
- Priced above the Metalbone Carbon CTRL for a control profile a less expensive frame partly covers.
The AT10 Luxury Genius 18K Alum 2026 acts as a balanced, precise, and structured all-around tool in Agustín Tapia's signature line. It prioritises control, transition fluidity, and orderly net play over raw frame snap. The 2026 update introduces the Weight Balance system for tactical customisation and extends the Dual Spin surface across the full face. If your style centres on point construction, clean defense, and sustained mid-court pressure, the fit is appropriate. Players chasing brute-force finishing power should look at firmer diamond models, while players wanting more cushioning should look at NOX's softer-core options.
- Highly agile in transitions and grip changes.
- Stable control when blocking pace and on wall counters.
- Repeatable depth on bandeja and víbora at controlled swing speeds.
- Customisable balance via the Weight Balance system.
- Full-face Dual Spin coverage in 2026 is a real surface upgrade over the 2025 edition.
- Strong defensive feel with a perceptive contact that lets the player feel the ball clearly.
- Excellent grip on cut volleys and drop shots at the net.
- Reduced passive power on slow balls and on flat forward smashes.
- Perimetric off-centre hits penalise depth at high speeds.
- The víbora can run away from the player when the swing accelerates too aggressively.
- The Weight Balance counterweights attach with adhesive and can detach during play.
