The best control score in Adidas's top 10 at 92, paired with the best comfort and tolerance (78/77) of any frame on this list — a round, even-balance build that trades the Metalbone's raw power for an arm-friendly all-round game.
Adidas's flagship power line — 84 power and 88 control together is the most balanced high-power profile in this top 10, ahead of the harder-hitting Metalbone HRD+ and Pro EDT variants below.
A pure power tune of the Metalbone platform above — 92 power against just 72 control, trading the standard Metalbone's balance for outright finishing pace, at the cost of comfort and tolerance both dropping into the low 60s.
Álex Ruiz's tour edition, and the second-highest control score in this top 10 at 92 — level with the Adipower Legend above, in a teardrop, head-heavy build rather than the Legend's round head.
The control-first member of the Metalbone family — 90 control against just 78 power inverts the standard Metalbone's power-lean above, the closest thing to the Adipower Legend's identity but under the Metalbone name.
A limited-run Metalbone tune pushing power to 91 — level with the standard HRD+ above — but the lowest value score (62) of any Metalbone variant in this list.
The previous-generation Multiweight Ctrl, a step below the Pro EDT above (91 vs 92 control) but the best value score (80) of any control-first frame in Adidas's top 10.
A power-leaning Multiweight, closer to the Metalbone HRD+'s profile (90 power/72 control) than to the control-first Adipower Ctrl variants above — Adidas's most attacking Adipower.
Scores identically to the Pro EDT Limited above (91 power/72 control) in a hybrid rather than teardrop shape — the same aggressive Metalbone tune, different head geometry.
