The verdict
The Multiweight Ctrl 3.3 is the control half of adidas's tuning experiment, and it earns its name: control 91 with tolerance 78 means the ball goes where you looked, even when contact is imperfect. The head-light 365 g setup keeps hands fast in exchanges, the EVA core absorbs pace on blocks, and comfort 77 makes it one of the kindest advanced frames around. The Multiweight system lets you add mass if you find it too polite. Power 77 is the honest trade: finishing requires patience or placement. At value 80, patient tacticians get a lot of racket for the money.

The series story
Adidas Adipower
The heritage line, reborn as the Multiweight
Long before the Metalbone became Adidas's flagship, the Adipower was the racket serious padel players pointed to when someone asked what Adidas could do. The line earned that reputation through steady, methodical refinements. In 2023, it was refounded around something genuinely different: Multiweight technology, a system of adjustable weight ports that lets players shift the balance of their frame toward the head for more finishing pace through the glass or toward the handle for greater feel during the construction of points. That first Multiweight scored PRR 86 and set the template for everything that followed.
The modern family has since split into two branches. The Multiweight is the attacking option, shaped to help players load up genuine finishing pace and put away overheads. The Multiweight CTRL is the one most players end up reaching for: a rounder, more forgiving frame fronted by Álex Ruiz, built for those who want to stay composed under pressure and work the ball systematically before going for the finish. The CTRL 3.3 and CTRL 3.4 both score PRR 88 with us. The Álex Ruiz Pro EDT editions of each push to PRR 89, adding carbon detailing without changing what the CTRL platform actually does well.
The 2026 Adipower Legend is the best racket this line has produced. Inspired by Seba Nerone, it reaches PRR 90 in our tests. It sits between the two branches in character, combining enough attacking instinct to finish points overhead with the kind of back-court control that keeps attacking players in rallies they might otherwise rush. Carbon trims round out the range below the CTRL line, giving newer players a point of entry at lower prices without asking them to pay for the full Multiweight system.
Which one should you buy?
The Adipower Legend (PRR 90) is the clear buy at full price. It is the sharpest all-round frame Adidas has put into this family: enough pace for players who attack at the net and finish overhead, with the control to stay in points when the rally stretches out. If the Legend is out of budget, the Multiweight CTRL 3.4 (PRR 88) is the one to watch for a discount. The adjustable weight ports make a real difference to how the frame handles, and the CTRL shape suits a broader range of players than the more attack-focused Multiweight. The Álex Ruiz Pro EDT editions (PRR 89) sit between those two and are worth the small premium over the standard CTRL if carbon detailing and a slightly crisper feel matter to you.
The Carbon trims are reasonable entry-level options, but any player past the early stages of the game will quickly outgrow them and wish they had bought the CTRL 3.4 instead. The original 2023 Adipower Multiweight (PRR 86) is secondary-market territory at this point: the CTRL generations that followed improved on it in control and overall feel, and there is no reason to seek it out while current stock exists.
Control with real forgiveness: the ball goes where you looked even when contact is imperfect, hands stay fast in exchanges thanks to the head-light setup, and the arm is protected across long sessions. The tuning system adds versatility rivals don't offer. It will not finish points for you — plough-through on heavy balls is limited, and attack-minded players will simply run out of racket.
