Adidas Cross It Ctrl Padel Racket (2026)
The Adidas Cross It Ctrl Padel Racket (2026) is a control-focused padel racket for advanced and professional players seeking precision, manoeuvrability and speed. Its round head shape, even balance and 360-375g weight range support controlled handling, while the 38mm carbon fibre frame and 15K Aluminised Carbon face provide a performance-led construction. High Memory EVA adds power on faster shots, with Dynamic Air Flow and Spin Blade Mould technologies helping improve movement through the air and spin generation.
Product Technologies:
- Dynamic Air Flow: Open holes positioned through the heart of the racket reduce air resistance to improve manoeuvrability.
- Extra Power Grip: An extended grip increases inertia through the swing to help generate additional power.
- Spin Blade Mould: A moulded 3D surface relief helps the racket grip the ball more effectively for increased spin.
- High Memory EVA: High-density EVA rubber is designed to increase power during high-speed shots and is aimed at technically advanced players.
- 11 Thirteen: Eleven central holes use a smaller diameter than the remaining thirteen holes, increasing rigidity, power and durability.
- 15K Aluminised Carbon Face: The racket uses a 15K Aluminised Carbon hitting surface.
- Carbon Fibre Frame: Carbon fibre construction is used for the racket frame.
Staff Pro Review:
The round shape and even balance make this Cross It Ctrl particularly suited to players who value controlled handling and precision. At the same time, High Memory EVA and the extended Extra Power Grip mean it is not purely defensive. The combination of Dynamic Air Flow and the moulded spin surface should appeal to technically advanced players who generate their own racket-head speed.
