adidas adipower CTRL 2
The adidas ADIPOWER paddles utilize an innovative combination of materials to produce pickleball paddles which offer offensively-oriented players a distinct measure of control when forced back on defense. adidas calls the face material "carbon aluminized," which is essentially a soft coating over a much harder material, yielding a paddle with enjoyably different degrees of response and touch at different depths on the court. Advanced players will love the feel as the ball dwells on the face just long enough to maximize your shot selection. The "CTRL" model is an all-court shape which provides a good blocking width that is maneuverable with a mid-weight range.
The ADIPOWER CTRL Pickleball Paddle overall measures 16" long and 8" wide, and features both adidas' structural reinforcement tech around the perimiter of the paddle, as well as their Spin Blade surface texture to enhance lateral ball movement when you want it. What adidas brings to the market with their ADIPOWER CTRL is a great, soft playing paddle for advanced and pro-level pickleballers.
