Adidas Cross IT Carbon CTRL 2026

The adidas Cross IT Carbon CTRL 2026 is a racket designed for PRO players who build the point from precision, tactics, and consistency. Its structure combines the best of classic control with the latest acceleration and aerodynamic technologies, offering a competition tool for those who dominate the game from defense and intelligent placement.

The round format with even balance centers the weight near the hand, which translates to maximum maneuverability and control in every situation. This configuration allows maintaining the pace of the game with quick reactions and solid hits, even under pressure. The surface is made with Carbon Aluminized 18K, a high-performance carbon fiber that offers a firm touch, excellent structural stability, and precise ball output, maintaining a consistent feel on every hit.

The core of EVA rubber Soft Performance provides the necessary comfort for intensive use without compromising response. This low-density rubber dampens vibrations, improves the feel of hits, and allows greater control in defensive phases or point construction.

The Dynamic Air Flow technology, integrated into the heart of the racket, reduces air resistance and improves swing speed, allowing the arm to accelerate with less effort. This, combined with the Extra Power Grip, with a longer handle that generates more inertia, helps achieve depth in hits without losing the characteristic control of the round format.

For spin game enthusiasts, the Spin Blade Mold —a molded texture on the surface— allows for easy application of topspin and sliced effects, with great precision. Additionally, the Smart Holes Curve hole pattern, along with the 11 Thirteen system, reinforces the hitting plane and increases both durability and tactile performance of the racket.

The racket is completed with a 3M Protector Tape on the frame and the new adjustable rope-type cord with padded wristband, exclusive to the 2026 collection, which improves grip safety and comfort.
