Expert Reviews of the Adidas Cross IT

8.1
Probando Palas

One of best power rackets of the year. Oriented towards attacking, but I found it better than expected in the back of the court. Amazing bandejas, Adidas's best spin. Medium-hard touch, but brings a surprisingly strong ball output, slightly harder than last year's Adipower. 13cm handle. Test model is 375g and 26.9cm.

Virgin Active Padel Club ZA

This racket shines in overheads and volleys. It combines the leverage you get from the long handle with stability and an ease to generate swing speed. Best for advanced aggressive players who want power and spin to finish the point.

Dani 13

Great medium-hard smasher! This is the most powerful Adidas - it is great for offensive volleys and the aerial game. I think the roughness increases the rigidity of the frame. This racket is harder then the 2023 and before Adipowers have been. Test model weighs 368g and balances at 27cm. Longer handle than most Adidas.
