Adidas Pickleball has introduced the AdiPower paddle line, a new range of paddles focused on power and control. The launch marks a fresh step for the brand with the slogan “Always Return Stronger.” The paddles were revealed alongside new signings, including professional players Jaume Martinez Vich and CJ Klinger.
A New Paddle for Players
The AdiPower PRO-EDT paddles are built with a foam-enhanced polymer base for stability and consistency. Players can choose from three models:
Elongated, 14mm core – 16.5″ x 7.5″
Elongated, 16mm core – 16.5″ x 7.5″
Widebody, 16mm core – 16″ x 8″
Jaume Martinez Vich has partnered with adidas on the 16mm elongated and 16mm widebody AdiPower PRO-EDT paddles.
“I wanted to partner with a company that not only equips me with the best possible gear, but also shares my vision for growing pickleball globally,”
Jaume Martinez Vich told The Dink in August.
“Joining the adidas Pickleball family felt like aligning with a team that’s as committed to elevating the sport as I am.”
He now joins the adidas pro lineup with Mari Humberg, Rafa Hewett, Ava Cavataio, John Cincola, and James Delgado.

Features Inside the AdiPower
The paddles use TriFoam Edge Reinforcement, with EVA foam placed at the top, middle, and bottom to reduce vibration and increase responsiveness. Other features include:
Low-Density Polypropylene Core for longer dwell time and a softer feel.
Raw Carbon Fiber Surface for spin and ball control.
Carbon Perimeter and Reinforced Edge Guard for durability and stability.
For Jaume Martinez Vich, the paddle provides the right mix of precision and strength.
“Competing with the latest technology feels great,” he said.
“Adding a power side to my game opens up new weapons for me.”
A Rising Star Joins adidas
Alongside the launch, adidas announced the signing of CJ Klinger, a standout player in both the Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) and Major League Pickleball (MLP).
CJ Klinger, from Ohio, helped his team Columbus Sliders win the 2025 MLP Championship. At only 19, he has already shared podiums with JW Johnson and Andrei Daescu. Known for his ability to bend and shape shots, his height and style make him a strong addition to adidas Pickleball.

Learning from the Past
adidas Pickleball first entered the market with the Metalbone paddle line, which featured advanced design and technology. While innovative, it struggled to gain traction.
The AdiPower paddles build on that experience by focusing more on stability, control, and player feedback. Instead of pushing every detail to the extreme, adidas now aims to provide a dependable paddle for players who want both touch and power.
With this shift, adidas is ready for its comeback, holding to its message: “Always Return Stronger.”
