Adidas Arrow Hit Pro EDT 2026

The Adidas Arrow Hit Pro EDT 2026 is an exclusive limited-edition diamond racket created with WPT professional Ari Sanchez for advanced players who want a rare combination of attacking shape and balanced, versatile control. What makes this racket unique is its diamond shape paired with an even balance — a technically sophisticated combination that delivers the offensive inertia of a diamond on overheads and smashes while maintaining the forgiving, centred sweet spot behaviour of a round frame. The ASC (Advanced Structural Carbon) faces guarantee optimal rigidity and fine striking sensitivity, producing powerful, precise ball output with outstanding feedback on every contact.

The Muscle Power System (MPS) deploys carbon ribs through the heart of the frame to increase torsional resistance, reduce impact vibrations, and enhance durability and structural rigidity under powerful striking. Power Groove frame reinforcement adds further stability and confidence on off-centre shots.
