Metalbone EVA 16mm (red no weights)
Elongated16mmGen 4
The Adidas Metalbone EVA 16mm (red no weights) is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle. It generates elite spin (89th percentile) with elite power and pop. It has a heavier, head-leaning swing weight that favors power and plow-through over hand speed, but low twist weight, so off-center hits lose more pace. Overall it's an aggressive, high-firepower build for players chasing put-away power.
