Head-to-head on PRR scores, specs, and live prices — independently tested with the same methodology. Updated daily.
Adidas Metalbone Ctrl wins by 12 points
Adidas Metalbone Ctrl scores 88/100 against 76/100 for the Head Gravity Elite. Its biggest edge is control (+18).
“The Adidas Metalbone Ctrl is a diamond control frame at 360 g with an EVA foam core, built for advanced players who want exceptional directional precision. Control at 90 is the exceptional headline: among the most precisely placed frames in the advanced bracket. PRR score 88 confirms the level of overall performance. Power at 78 is the honest trade-off. Comfort at 76 and tolerance at 76 keep it usable across regular sessions. PRR score: 88/100.”
“The Head Gravity Elite is defined by its accessible, control-oriented feel built around a round-to-teardrop hybrid shape that prioritizes consistency and touch over raw aggression. The softer EVA foam core and mid-range flex make it genuinely arm-friendly across long sessions, rewarding players who work the ball rather than blast it. Intermediate to advanced club players transitioning from tennis or seeking a reliable all-court option will appreciate its predictability, though competitive players chasing punch and pop may find it underwhelming for the price bracket it typically occupies.”
