Adidas Cross It Carbon CTRL 3.4

The Adidas Cross It Carbon CTRL 3.4 is a padel racket developed for intermediate to advanced players who base their game on control, stability, and precision, but want a sturdier and more direct blade than the Team or Light variants. This model positions itself within the Cross It line as a technical control racket with extra feedback, intended for players who actively steer and read the game.
The Cross It Carbon CTRL 3.4 is not an entry-level racket, nor is it a power-oriented finishing racket. It is a control-oriented competition racket for players who want to build up the point from a calm and composed position.


What type of player is this racket suitable for?

The Adidas Cross It Carbon CTRL 3.4 is particularly suitable for right-handed players at intermediate to advanced level who want to organize the game with rallies, placement, and tempo control. Players who value precision, block volleys, and stable defensive play will get the most out of this racket.
In addition, this racket is also well suited for left-handed players with a controlling or all-round playing style who do not depend on smash power but are looking for a tight and direct ball feel. This model is less suitable for distinctly offensive players.


Key features

The round shape provides a low and centrally placed sweet spot, which offers maximum control and helps with consistent placement. The balance is low to medium, which makes the racket very stable and maneuverable, especially in defensive situations.
The hitting surface is made of carbon and has a medium to medium-hard blade feel. The blade is clearly stiffer than the Team and Light models, but less extreme than the Pro variants. This provides a direct response and clear feedback, with less forgiveness than soft control rackets.
The core consists of EVA rubber with a controlled and slightly dampening response, which limits vibrations and keeps the racket comfortable during longer rallies.


Playing feel and performance

On the court, the Adidas Cross It Carbon CTRL 3.4 feels tight, stable, and very predictable. In rallies, you play with a lot of control and confidence, while the racket responds exactly to your input. In defensive situations, the racket remains calm and reliable, while in offensive moments you can accelerate in a controlled manner based on technique and timing. The racket is less forgiving than soft control rackets, but rewards players with good technique with precision and consistency.
This makes the Cross It Carbon CTRL 3.4 an excellent choice for players looking for a technical control racket with a firm but not extremely hard head, focused on control, stability, and game development, within the Adidas range.
