Adidas ADIPOWER RX PRO 16

via Play It Again Sports (used, availability may change)

Tour-reported: This is PPA Tour's undated equipment listing, not an independent recent match sighting. Its text names the ADIPOWER RX PRO 16, but PPA's buy link and image on the same page show an Adipower Pro Edition 16mm, so the exact Adipower model is unverified. Adidas's own pages could not be opened. Colorway, personal build and latest match use remain unverified.

ADIPOWER RX PRO 16 model listed on current PPA Tour profiles. The linked Play It Again Sports listing is a used black paddle, not a player-specific colorway; it is one-off inventory and availability can change. Retail specifications beyond the model name remain unverified.
