Adidas Adipower Legend wins by 26 points
Adidas Adipower Legend scores 90/100 against 64/100 for the Black Crown Shark. Its biggest edge is power (+28). The Black Crown Shark answers back on maneuverability (+2).
“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 Shark is Black Crown's soft-cored, control-first companion to the Wolf, pairing an EVA Soft core with a plain fibreglass face for a comfortable, forgiving strike at accessible pricing.”
