The Cross It Team Light is extremely similar to the Cross It Light 3.4, sharing the same round shape, 345-360 gram weight range, and low balance for easy handling. The primary difference is the hitting surface, which is a soft and flexible fiberglass composite that helps facilitate excellent ball pocketing and a deeper flex. Additionally, adidas has markedly increased the length of their handle with their Extra Power Grip, which adds more leverage and reach for length-based power, which helps round out this otherwise control-focused experience. A combination of 11 smaller holes and 13 standard-sized holes makes for a balanced hitting experience that offers both good stability and control. Elsewhere, the Soft Performance rubber inside the racket is made from a low density EVA that boosts comfort substantially, helping to make this frame feel more user-friendly. To further boost spin production, adidas uses their Spin Blade Decal texture to facilitate good grip on the ball which also enhances control. For intermediate and newer players who like a more flexible hitting experience, the Cross It Team Light is a fantastic option for both comfort and precision. Our in-house tester at Padel Warehouse love this racket for its easy-to-use nature and rewarding playability.

Technologies:

• Fiberglass : Soft touch, increased comfort, and great ball exit. Its main characteristic is its elasticity. In slow or baseline shots, it provides a greater ball exit than carbon rubber, as it allows for more flexion and offers greater spring effect. It also allows achieving softer touches for players seeking greater comfort.

• Soft Performance: Low-density EVA rubber that provides excellent ball output and comfort in the game. Rackets with this type of rubber are identified by the black cap.

• Dynamic Air Flow: Exclusive CROSS IT. This technology allows for a greater airflow in the heart area of the racket during the stroke. The open holes in the bridge create an aerodynamic effect that reduces air resistance and increases the maneuverability of the racket.
• Extra Power Grip: The longer grip transfers more mass towards the head of the racket and shifts the sweet spot towards the top. This increases inertia and favors power in the shots.

• 11 Thirteen: Innovative hole distribution pattern on the racket. The eleven holes located in the center of the striking surface are of a smaller diameter than the remaining thirteen. This provides greater rigidity, power, and durability.

• Spin Blade Decal: This relief helps improve the sensation of control and increase the amount of spin we can impart to the ball.

• Smart Holes Curve: This hole arrangement is specially designed to favor the generation of spin in all types of shots.

• Structural Reinforcement: Perimeter reinforcements that allow for greater resistance to the high torsions the racket must withstand during play.
