The 2025 Cross IT 3.4 is a diamond with high balance and a hard EVA core – a construction that puts the centre of gravity in the racket head and is clearly built for attack. At 352 g it sits in the middle weight range, but the high balance still provides noticeable head weight and plenty of mass behind the smash and víbora. The hard core returns the ball directly and quickly, but demands clean hits in the high-lying sweet spot of the diamond shape. Added to that is the Dynamic Air Flow system, which is meant to reduce air resistance and speed up the swing.
At 352 g, it is lighter than three quarters of all models in our comparison: quick to handle, but more of the power in attack has to come from your own swing. Head shape Diamond means: mass high up, a small, high sweet spot – maximum power, but less margin on off-centre hits than round and teardrop; the high balance puts the mass to work on the smash, but puts more strain on the arm. The hard core gives direct feedback on clean contact but is less forgiving. With power 8 and control 5 out of 10, it is clearly built for power.
With a forgiveness rating of 2.2 out of 10, it is less forgiving than 65% of the diamond-shaped rackets in our comparison. 5 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €152.91 to €174.90 – a €22 difference for the same model.
Attacking players with clean technique looking for a head-heavy diamond with a hard core, without reaching for a very heavy racket.

Our classification: Intermediate and Competitive. Its forgiveness is 2.2 out of 10 – uncompromising, only for consistent hitters.
The Adidas Cross IT 3.4 2025 weighs 352 g and has a diamond shape, a high (head-heavy) balance and a hard core (EVA).
Not by our rule: the core is hard, the balance is head-heavy, the diamond shape shifts the weight upwards. We only call rackets arm-friendly if they have a soft core, a balance that isn't head-heavy, a round or teardrop shape and weigh 360 g at most. Suitable models are listed in our guide to padel rackets for tennis elbow.
