For the experienced padel player who prioritizes precision and control! The 2024 edition of the Adidas Adipower CTRL is ready to give you precision in every stroke thanks to a round head shape in conjunction with a range of Adidas' best technologies.

The Dual eXoskeleton and Power Embossed Ridge technologies give the racket a rigid construction that ensures a high output on hard shots. In addition, the texture of the racket's surface and the Smart Holes Curve hole pattern ensures a good grip on the ball, which helps to create extra spin.

Compared to its predecessor, the Adipower CTRL 3.2, the new Adipower CTRL 3.3 version is softer in the surface (3K carbon versus 15K carbon) and softer in the core (EVA Soft Performance foam versus EVA High Memory foam). This makes the 3.3 version more comfortable and forgiving to play with than last season's model.

Weight: 360-375 grams

Technologies Applied in Adidas Adipower CTRL 3.3 

EVA Soft Performance

The racket's core is made of low density EVA rubber to give you response and high comfort. This is the softest of the three types of foam that Adidas works with in their top rackets. Adidas' rackets produced with this type of rubber is marked with a black cap.

3K Carbon

Adidas operates with 8 different types of fibers, where each type has a different degree of flexibility that affects the racket's power and control. The racket is made with "Carbon 3K", which is number 3 out of 8 on Adidas' list of fibers ranked by flexibility. This is above average in terms of flexibility, so you get a large degree of comfort with this type of carbon fiber.

Dual eXoskeleton

This technology characterises the Adipower series, where the heart of the racket is reinforced, so you get maximum transfer of energy in each shot. 

Power Embossed Ridge

The outside of the frame is reinforced with carbon nerves for greater stiffness. The aim is to give the aggressive player more power.

Spin Blade Mold

In the Adipower series, Adidas uses their Spin Blade Mold technology, which is a surface structure that enables you to put more spin into the ball.

Smart Holes Curve

A strategic placement of the racket's hole pattern that optimizes sweetspot and grip of the ball.

Structural Reinforcement

The entire racket head has been reinforced to make it even more durable and resistant to the stress and torsion that the material is exposed to.

3 tips to extend the lifespan of your padel racket

1. Use a frame protector

Fit a frame protector to your racket to minimise damage from contact with the court glass or metal mesh. It is a simple addition that may not look like much, but it can help extend the life of your racket by protecting it from knocks and scratches.

2. Avoid extreme temperatures

Store your racket at a stable room temperature. Over time, both very high and very low temperatures can weaken the foam in the racket core and reduce performance. Avoid leaving your racket in places such as a cold car boot or close to a hot radiator.

3. Protect your racket during transport

Keep your racket in a bag or cover to protect it from scratches, dirt and knocks. This is especially important during transport or storage between matches, as proper storage helps reduce wear and tear.

3 tips to get the most out of your padel racket

1. Choose the right racket for your level and playing style

Choose a racket that matches your level and playing style. New players may benefit from a racket with a softer face and a large sweetspot, while more experienced players often prefer a stiffer construction with more emphasis on precision or power.

2. Replace your overgrip regularly

Replacing your overgrip regularly helps maintain a fresh grip and improves comfort and control. A worn grip can cause the racket to slip in your hand and put extra strain on your wrist and forearm during play.

3. Upgrade your racket when the time is right

Over time, the foam in the racket core loses its elasticity and performance. This means you will no longer get the same response from your shots. If you have been using the same racket for several seasons or notice a drop in its performance, it is a sign that it is time to invest in a new one.
