“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 Extreme Edge Black is Head's budget blunt instrument: a 375 g foam-core build with a carbon-fibreglass face producing power 76 against the loosest control in the family (64) and strict terms (comfort 64, tolerance 63). Value 76 is fair for the pace. The Edge tier strips the Extreme recipe to its violence: no refinement budget, all output. For improving attackers who want the family name and maximum hit at minimum spend, it obliges with the standard warnings attached. The Extreme Team, one shelf up, buys back the manners for modest extra money.”
