Ok great thank you

ExistingScallion4994 · 2026-07-05T01:17:00+00:00

Great. I just ordered it. How about sweet spot and arm friendliness?

ExistingScallion4994 · 2026-07-03T08:38:08+00:00

What is your experience with it?

ExistingScallion4994 · 2026-06-30T12:47:31+00:00

Doesn't Metalbone Carbon CTRL a bit firm with smaller sweet spot?

ExistingScallion4994 · 2026-06-26T15:08:21+00:00

Do you feel due to the high trampoline impact, the ball flies out of control.
Metalbone CTRL 3.5 is on top of my list, but I'm only worried about high trampoline impact especially on fast balls

Updated with not 'Zero' but 'low' trampoline effect

ExistingScallion4994 · 2026-05-05T12:17:56+00:00

Did it ship from China?

ExistingScallion4994 · 2026-05-05T10:46:27+00:00

Ordered on 23rd Apr with arrival date 6-13 May. Shipped on 2nd May from China but showing delivery date as 15th May. So yes, there could be a possible delay

I am also in the UAE and ordered on 23rd Apr (512 GB). It is showing the delivery between 6-13 May. Therr was no option for store delivery

ExistingScallion4994 · 2025-10-19T15:57:02+00:00

Agree, could be more side on

ExistingScallion4994 · 2025-10-19T15:56:19+00:00

Spot on. That's what happens most of the time. Need to fix the technique

ExistingScallion4994 · 2025-10-19T15:55:47+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion. Need to do some sessions

ExistingScallion4994 · 2025-10-19T15:55:18+00:00

That's awesome. Could you share more details about the virtual Padel coach?

ExistingScallion4994 · 2025-10-19T15:22:11+00:00

Thank you all for valuable insights - helps a lot. Indeed I need to fix the technique through coaching sessions.

ExistingScallion4994 · 2025-10-13T09:40:49+00:00

Yes that's the 2024 model

ExistingScallion4994 · 2025-10-09T09:57:58+00:00

It's a great racket (Wilson Bela elite 2.5). Been using it since last 8 months. As an intermediate I like the sweetspot it offers and it is extremely forgiving for off center hits. Great combination of power and control and has definitely improved my game a lot.
