Adidas Cross It Team 3.4 (2025)

Solid rather than headline, in the mid-seven range out of ten. The diamond head and head-heavy balance add depth to lobs and a useful lift to smashes, but this is not a power weapon.

Dependable and close to its power score, with an easy ball exit from the fiberglass faces and soft core. It forgives rather than dissects, so a player who wants a very small, precise control blade will find better options.

The quiet strength of the racket. It moves quickly in the hand at the net, which helps fast volley exchanges and defensive blocks. Printed weight is around 360 to 375 grams, though one source lists it lighter, so check it in your hands.

Decent for a diamond shape. Off-centre hits are tolerated better than you would expect from a pointed head, which fits an improving player.

Gentle on the arm, with a soft EVA core and fiberglass faces that keep long rallies comfortable. Expect a fiberglass racket to lose a little crispness with heavy use.
