Metalbone LP S (Red EVA)
Elongated16mmGen-4Thermoformed
The Adidas Metalbone LP S (Red EVA) is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle with a thermoformed, Carbon Fiber face. It generates below-average spin (41th 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.
