Adidas CJ Klinger Adipower Pro EDT Pickleball Paddle

Adidas CJ Klinger Adipower Pro EDT Pickleball Paddle (Model #AP1CA1)

The Adidas CJ Klinger Adipower Pro EDT Pickleball Paddle is built for advanced players who demand precision, reach, and confident control at full speed. Its elongated attack shape raises the sweet spot for extended court coverage and sharper directional accuracy, while the 16mm low-density honeycomb core delivers exceptional dwell time with a smooth, connected feel. Designed in collaboration with CJ Klinger, this paddle blends raw carbon performance with reinforced stability to help aggressive players dictate play without sacrificing touch or forgiveness.

The CJ Klinger Edition is a player-branded version of Adidas’ Adipower Pro-EDT 16mm, sharing the same tour-level construction and performance. The Adipower Pro models are built with tour-level materials and precision tuning for advanced players, while the non-Pro Adipower paddles use more forgiving constructions designed for developing and intermediate players seeking easier power and control.

CJ Klinger is a rising American professional pickleball player and an Adidas-sponsored athlete known for his aggressive all-court game and strong two-handed backhand. He gained international recognition after winning a gold medal at the 2023 Pan American Games, helping showcase pickleball on a major global stage. Based in the Midwest and competing regularly on the U.S. pro circuit, Klinger brings a modern blend of power, reach, and control—qualities reflected in the design of his Adipower Pro EDT signature paddle.
