The new Metalbone 2023 collection once again shows why this range is a favourite choice of padel players around the world, including Ale Galan, because of the use of technology and other characteristics. But we do not just think about technology when it comes to designing rackets - we also need to think about who will be holding them on court.
Ale Galán continues to amass victories. The adidas player and his teammate, Juan Lebrón, won the final Premier Padel tournament of the season played in Milan. In the final, they prevailed by a resounding 6-2, 6-2 against Víctor Ruíz and Lucas Bergamini.

Padel rackets have their different advantages and, occasionally, shortcomings. But for all their features that players either prefer or not, rackets are not able to change their characteristics. That was until Weight and Balance System technology was developed that allows the adidas rackets that incorporate it to vary their weight and balance to adapt their behavior to the player's needs in each match.
The material used in a padel racket is key to understand what characteristics it will have while being used during a match. Each component has its special features and contributes to what the racket is like as a whole.
