“Ignore the Adipower name's attacking history: the Legend is a control instrument. Control 92 is among the highest we have scored, and the EVA Soft Performance core with a Carbon 3K face explains the feel: soft enough to absorb pace and reset the point, precise enough to put a lob on the back glass at will. Comfort 78 and tolerance 77 make it kind to arms and imperfect contact alike. Power 82 is the trade, respectable but not a finisher, so points end through construction rather than violence. For intermediates upward who win with patience and placement, it is superb.”
“The Adidas Metalbone Carbon 2026 is a diamond power frame at 375 g with an EVA performance core and Carbon 6K face, built for advanced players who want serious overhead aggression. Power at 86 leads the profile. Control at 72 and tolerance at 65 are low: clean, committed technique is essential. Comfort at 66 confirms this is a demanding frame. PRR score: 84/100.”
