We only publish a score after reading at least two independent reviews of a racket. The specs below are confirmed; the verdict follows.
A round racket for advanced players who want a composed, placement-first feel and will take control over raw punch. It is the Zidane signature edition of the Metalbone family, launched in October 2026, so it has no independent play tests yet and everything here is provisional. It is not a smaller version of the diamond-shaped standard Metalbone Carbon, which is a more attacking tool.
Aimed at placement rather than punch, but not yet confirmed by play tests. The maker pitches a centred balance and a surface texture and hole layout built for spin on sliced and topspin shots. Treat that as the intent, not a verified result.
Expect a middling swing rather than a featherweight one. The stated weight band is 360 to 375 grams, and a longer handle adds some swing weight. The centred balance should keep the head easy to position, though no tester has confirmed how quick it feels at the net.
Unconfirmed. The maker places the sweet spot in the middle of the face and uses an octagonal tubing section to resist twisting on off-centre contact. How large the forgiving area really is remains unknown until independent tests exist.
Unconfirmed. Carbon 3K faces sit over a soft EVA core on a 38 mm profile, which points to a gentler feel than a hard-cored racket. Shops disagree on whether the faces are 3K or 6K carbon, so check the spec sheet before you buy.
Specs come from the maker and the reviews we read, and makers revise them between batches. If a weight, balance or material is off, tell us and we will fix the racket page.
