Metalbone PP 16mm (no weights)
Elongated16mmGen 2
The Adidas Metalbone PP 16mm (no weights) is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle. It generates elite spin (90th percentile) with low 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 a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
