Adidas Cross It Team 3.4 Padel Racket

The Adidas Cross IT Team 3.4 Padel Racket is a dynamic performance model within Adidas’s 3.4 Collection, designed for intermediate and advanced players who want the cutting-edge aerodynamic innovations of the flagship Cross IT line in a more elastic, comfortable specification package.

Positioned below Martha Ortega’s pro-spec Cross IT models, the Team 3.4 incorporates key structural technologies—such as the Dynamic Air Flow (DAF) aerodynamic throat system and the Extra Power Grip—while utilizing flexible Fiber Glass faces and an EVA Soft Performance core to maximize sweet spot forgiveness, ball output, and elbow comfort.

Performance Profile

1. Aerodynamic Hand Speed & Maneuverability: Maximum. Built with Adidas’s Dynamic Air Flow (DAF) system—specially angled air channels integrated into the heart/throat bridge—which reduces air resistance for noticeably faster swing speeds during net exchanges and defensive recoveries.
2. Touch & Easy Ball Output (Salida de Bola): Exceptional. Flexible Fiber Glass surface faces work in synergy with the low-density EVA Soft Performance core to generate effortless rebound on slow-to-medium pace shots without requiring peak physical swing speed.
3. Overhead Leverage: High. Features an Extra Power Grip (an extended handle length), which shifts the balance point slightly higher during overhead swings to create increased leverage and momentum on smashes and viboras.
4. Torsional Stability & Durability: High. Reinforced with Perimeter Structural Reinforcement along the frame loop to resist frame twisting on off-center hits and punch volleys.
5. Spin Enhancement: High. Outfitted with Spin Blade Mold, a 3D-embossed surface texture integrated directly into the outer mold to increase ball bite for extra kick on slice volleys and topspin overheads.

Best Suited For

1. Intermediate & Advanced Competitive Players: Players seeking a modern, high-tech frame that combines fast handling and overhead leverage with a soft, forgiving impact feel.
2. All-Court Playmakers & Transition Players: Tactical competitors who balance defensive resets from the back glass with fast net counter-attacks.
3. Players Wanting Pro-Level Tech Without Rigid Stiffness: Competitors who love the aerodynamic speed and longer handle of the Cross IT series but want to avoid the arm fatigue associated with stiff carbon models.
