Adidas Metalbone 3.2
The Adidas Metalbone 3.2 Pickleball Paddle is aimed at the most demanding high-level players seeking to customize their gaming experience like never before. This paddle utilizes a 13mm (0.51") thick PMI structural foam core. This unique core skips the polypropylene and instead creates a structure with PMI foam. This closed-cell foam is extremely rigid and lightweight, allowing it to return ample energy to the ball for impressive power in high-energy shots. Adidas' Weight & Balance System allows the players to customize the static weight, swing weight, twist weight, and balance point of the paddle; adapted from Adidas' Padel technology, and a first from any major pickleball manufacturer! Consisting of 4 screws, each weighing 2.6 grams (10.4g total), and removable with the included allen key-tipped keychain, this system allows you to add or remove up to 0.367 ounces from the neck area of the paddle where most players put lead tape anyway. Leaving the screws in shifts the balance point closer to the hand, resulting in better control and a maneuverable head-light feel. Removing the screws shifts the balance point further away from the hand, resulting in more power-oriented performance.
Structural reinforcement is provided by perimeter carbon, extending from the end of the handle up the sides of the paddle, creating torsional stability and resulting in an aerodynamic edgeless design. The surface of the Adidas Metalbone 3.2 is comprised of C18 Carbon Fiber treated with Adidas' Spin Blade Max surface texturing, resulting in a paddle which is forgiving on off-center strikes, and greatly improves spin potential.
