{"product_id":"adidas-metalbone-team-3-5","title":"Adidas Metalbone Team 3.5 2026","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAdidas Metalbone Team 3.5 2026\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Adidas Metalbone Team 3.5 2026 is a padel racquet developed for intermediate to slightly advanced players who want to play an attacking style, while looking for a more accessible and comfortable alternative to the Metalbone Pro. This model is the Team version within the Metalbone range and combines the power-focused DNA of the Metalbone series with greater playability and forgiveness.\u003cbr\u003eThe Metalbone Team 3.5 2026 is not an all-round control racquet, nor is it an ultra-demanding competition model. It is an attacking racquet balanced with comfort, designed for players who want power without having to play with an overly stiff and demanding face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this racquet suited for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Adidas Metalbone Team 3.5 2026 is suited for attack-minded intermediate players. The racquet works particularly well for left-side players who like finishing points with smashes and volleys, but find the Pro models too stiff or too difficult to handle.\u003cbr\u003eIt can also suit right-side players with a more aggressive playing style who like moving forward to the net and want extra support on attacking shots. For right-side players focused mainly on control and building rallies, this model is less ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe diamond shape creates a high sweet spot, offering extra support on smashes and overheads. The balance is positioned towards the top of the racquet, helping generate speed and impact, while remaining manageable thanks to the selected materials.\u003cbr\u003eThe face is made from fibreglass combined with a carbon frame and delivers a soft to medium feel. The racquet face is clearly not stiff. Thanks to the lower carbon content and increased flex, the racquet offers greater comfort, a larger sweet spot and more forgiveness than the Metalbone Pro, although with less direct precision and explosiveness.\u003cbr\u003eThe core uses EVA Soft Performance foam, providing additional cushioning and a controlled ball output. The comfort level is noticeably higher than the Pro version, making the racquet easier and more enjoyable to play with during longer matches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeel and performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn court, the Adidas Metalbone Team 3.5 2026 feels attacking yet accessible. During smashes and volleys, the racquet helps generate pace, while the softer face is noticeably more forgiving on off-centre hits. In defensive situations, the racquet offers more comfort and composure compared to the stiffer Metalbone models.\u003cbr\u003eThe Metalbone Team 3.5 2026 is therefore a clear choice for players who want to experience the Metalbone attacking concept, while deliberately choosing greater comfort and playability over maximum stiffness and demanding performance within the Adidas range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adidas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48131672506612,"sku":"AD-MT3.5","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/2724\/1204\/files\/adidas-metalbone-team-35-2026-2963350.jpg?v=1778061913","url":"https:\/\/au.justpadel.com\/products\/adidas-metalbone-team-3-5","provider":"Justpadel Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
