Who this racket is for

The Adidas Metalbone HRD+ 3.4 2025 targets advanced players with consolidated technique who want more performance without yet moving to a pure competition racket. Its diamond shape moves the sweet spot to the top of the face, giving more leverage and power at the cost of some tolerance. The high balance adds weight to the swing and pushes the racket toward an offensive profile. The hard build favours explosive shots, especially bandeja and smash, but demands more technique. With a weight of 345-360g, it sits among the lighter rackets on the market: easier to swing and less stressful on the elbow.

Pros

✓Weight & Balance customisation system adjusts feel to your preference

Cons

✗Head-heavy balance is physically demanding over long matches
