The verdict

The Adidas Cross IT 3.4 2025 is a head-heavy diamond for advanced players who want a balanced attacking option with EVA Soft Performance core and Carbon 6K face. Power and control sit at an equal 78, making it a genuinely well-rounded frame rather than a specialist. At 360-375 g, the weight is in the right range for an advanced player without feeling oppressive. Comfort at 73 and tolerance at 72 both confirm the frame is forgiving across sessions. PRR score: 82/100.

What we loved
Balanced power and control at 78 each: no obvious weakness in either direction
Carbon 6K face: crisp, responsive feel on clean overhead contact
EVA Soft Performance core: livelier, more forgiving than standard EVA foam
360-375 g weight range: manageable for advanced players across a full match
Worth knowing
Power at 78 limits effectiveness as a pure finishing weapon on heavy overheads
Maneuverability at 74 makes fast net reactions a little slower than lighter alternatives
Head-heavy balance demands consistent technique to extract the most from the frame

The series story

Adidas Cross It

Adidas's all-court line, fronted by Marta Ortega

The Cross It is Adidas's all-court series: the rounder, more forgiving counterpart to the Metalbone, and the line associated with Marta Ortega on the women's tour. Its brief is balance: enough bite to attack when the ball sits up, enough sweet spot to defend without punishment. The family follows Adidas's familiar trim structure (mainline, Pro EDT at the top, Carbon and Team below), and the Pro EDT editions have been the quiet overachievers of the range, scoring 87 with us.

Which one should you buy?

The Cross It Pro EDT (PRR 87) is the best racket in the line and one of the best all-court frames Adidas makes, so buy it if it fits your budget. The standard Cross It 3.4 (PRR 82) and Carbon 2026 (PRR 84) are solid steps down, and the Team trim covers improvers. Attackers should look at the Metalbone instead.

  1. 2025

    The mainline 3.4 (PRR 82) and Marta Ortega's edition define the all-court formula; the Pro EDT (PRR 87) tops the family.

  2. 2025

    The tour-level trim — stiffer face, same forgiving geometry. The best Cross It we have tested at PRR 87.

  3. 2026

    The Carbon trim steps up to PRR 84, narrowing the gap to the Pro EDT at a friendlier price.

The PRR takePRR Team

Balanced, in an attacker's body

A head-heavy diamond with no obvious weakness in either direction: the livelier core is more forgiving than standard builds, the face is crisp on clean overhead contact, and the weight range keeps it manageable across a full match. It won't be a pure finishing weapon — the output is balanced rather than brutal — lighter frames react quicker at the net, and the balance rewards consistent technique.
