The review

Marta Ortega's Cross It 3.4 is one of adidas's best-judged signature frames: a 15K carbon face over an EVA core, offered in a 360 to 375 g spread, with power 78 and control 78 in exact equilibrium.

The strike is precise without harshness, comfort 73 and tolerance 72 keep it kind, and maneuverability 74 suits the fast, complete game Ortega plays. Nothing on the card punishes; nothing disappoints. Value 72 is fair for signature quality. For advanced all-courters, particularly those who want one frame for every phase of the point, the 3.4 is quietly excellent and easy to recommend.

Highlights

Top 25% for control, and in the bottom third for value.

Both are true at once, and between them they are the whole review. Our score is better than 61% of the 518 rackets we hold a score for.

Three years of the Cross It.

Not necessarily this one. The Carbon Ctrl scores 83 at €175, €1 less than this racket's 82 at €176.

About the Cross It line

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.

The Cross It Pro EDT (87 on our score) 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 (82 on our score) and Carbon 2026 (84 on our score) are solid steps down, and the Team trim covers improvers. Attackers should look at the Metalbone instead.
