Our Verdict
The Adidas Cross IT 3.4 2025 is a purposefully aggressive racket that does not pretend to be anything else. Its diamond shape, head-heavy balance produced by the Extra Power Grip handle design, and the Eleven 13 reinforced hole pattern combine to make every smash and put-away feel loaded with intent. Dynamic Airflow keeps the swing fast despite the elevated swing weight, so attacking players gain pace without sacrificing racket speed. This is the right tool for advanced players who move forward to finish points and want the racket to amplify the power they already generate through technique. If you play an aggressive, net-dominant style and have the technical foundation to handle a demanding diamond, the Cross IT 3.4 rewards you handsomely.
Cross IT 3.4
The Adidas Cross IT 3.4 2025 is built for advanced players who want to dictate play from an aggressive position with explosive, heavy shots. A diamond shape, head-heavy balance, and an extended handle make this a specialist power tool rather than an all-round weapon.
- Players who attack from the net will notice genuine additional leverage on smashes thanks to the extended handle shifting mass toward the head, producing swing weight that punishes high balls.
- Consistency across the hitting surface is improved by the Eleven 13 hole pattern, which stiffens the central zone and reduces unpredictable flex on off-centre contact.
- Swing speed through the hitting arc is meaningfully higher than a conventional diamond of similar weight, because the Dynamic Airflow channels in the frame actively reduce air resistance during the stroke.
- Players below advanced level, or those coming back from arm injuries, will find the head-heavy balance and stiff hitting surface punishing — the swing weight demands precise timing and strong wrist stability that developing players have not yet built.
About This Racket

Experienced players with developed technique who favour aggressive, attacking play. Suited to competitive club players who dominate from the net and want maximum pace on smashes and volleys. Demands clean contact — rewards it with explosive performance.
