Description
Super Thick Core > Maximum Control
The 20 milimeter core of the paddle provides maximum feel and touch, allowing for effortless drop shots, soft dink battles, blocks and resets. And with its 3K carbon fiber facing, textured surface and increased ball dwell time, the Predion E20 allows you to induce ball spin, shape and place your shots with tactical precision.
The 5.25 inch long handle and 4.125 inch grip circumference of the Predion E20 allows you to roll your wrist and easily manipulate the paddle face, thereby adjusting your swing path and relative angle of the paddle face to deliver directional forces on the ball and spin.
Encased Core > Formidable Power
The paddle’s carbon fiber sidewalls are fused with it’s carbon fiber facings under heat and pressure, completely encasing the polypropylene honeycomb core and maximizing surface tension for crisp, powerful shots. The open throat also pushes the sweetspot toward the paddle tip, allowing more effective use of the fastest part of your swing path and power generation.
Perimeter Weighted > Maximum Stability
Perimeter weighting and thicker core increases the moment of inertia, which is a measure of the paddle’s resistance to having its speed of rotation about an axis altered by the application of a turning force. This allows the paddle to resist twisting and increases the sweet spot with less energy being lost on off center hits.
Well Balanced > Stable Power
At an 8.5 ounce static weight, the 16.5 inch paddle has its balance point at 57% of the paddle length, making it a well balanced paddle. However, it’s at the upper end of the well balanced paddle range.
And because the balance point of the Predion E20 is more toward the tip of the paddle, it allows for a greater plow through rate and the ability to drive the ball easier with serves, ground strokes and overhead slams.
And, the open throat and edgeless design reduces air drag, making the paddle more aerodynamic and allows for greater hand speed.
Lifetime Warranty
Cheetah® stands behind the build quality of it’s paddles.
The Predion E20 is covered under our lifetime warranty, which includes delamination (defined as when the paddle face becomes separated from the paddle core), core crush (defined as when the paddle core is compromised), and paddle breakage (defined as when the paddle breaks at the handle). Please see our Limited Lifetime Warranty policy for details.
Direct to Consumer Savings
Cheetah® Pickleball doesn’t sell to retailers and doesn’t have to set higher prices in order to guarantee a 40% profit margin for them.
We only sell direct to you.
This also gives you the advantage of dealing directly with the manufacturer, in case return issues arise.
Freebies
When you buy a Cheetah® Predion 20, you’ll receive 3 FREE strips of Cheetah® Edge Protective Tape. We recommend you place one on the top of your paddle to prevent any scratches or chips that can occur when you scrape your paddle on an outdoor surface. If you only play indoors on a wood floor, there’s no need for the tape.
We’ll also include a FREE pair of Jorestech Protective Eyeware. These glasses are ANSI Z87+ Certified and provide UV (UVA and UVB radiation) protection. Plus, they have yellow tinted lenses that block blue light. And as you may know, blue light, with its shorter wavelength, scatters easier than other colors and makes focusing on objects difficult. Removing blue light improves sharpness, enhances contrast, improves depth perception and even reduces eye fatigue.
You’ll also receive 3 Cheetah® M45 pickleballs.
The Cheetah® M45 pickleball provides one-piece performance with a mid-compression feel. The M45 is a one-piece, mid-compression pickleball, designed to perform on outdoor surfaces and in outdoor conditions.
It meets all USA Pickleball requirements and is approved for tournament play.
The Cheetah® M45 uses a rotation molding process that achieves seamless and even wall thickness. The M45s play fast, fly straight and have predictable bounces off the court and hits off your paddle.
They perform as well as the other tournament-style pickleballs but have an improved feel and are more comfortable to play with.

I’ve bought pretty much all the Cheetah paddles available in the last 2 years or so, and I’ve loved them all!
The newest one, the E20 is a Great paddle as well, I love the extra thickness and the Pop, Spin & Control is Amazing. The only thing I’m not totally sold on is the “ edge less” feature. It does help extend the paddle but our group plays mostly an aggressive 3.5 to 5.0 level, so it is gonna take a beating around the edge.
Over the last year and especially the past 3 months since relocating to coastal N Carolina, no less than 6 or 7 of my fellow Pballers have tried my paddle(s) and purchased their own Cheetahs.
Try one, great paddle at a great price, you won’t be sorry 🤾♂️!

Possibly the best control paddle on the market. Plenty of power and very stable paddle. Perfect selection for the intermediate to advance player. Love the design. I’ve had several friends try out this paddle and they are all amazed on how well it plays.

This paddle is great. I replaced my worn out Selkirk LUXX with it. I think I like it better. The added weight seems to give me more powerful shots.

You cannot go wrong with this paddle. The touch and feel you get is terrific.
Steve Hansen (verified owner) –
Wow! What an awesome paddle. I have a Selkirk LUXX Invikta and wanted to get another one. I found this baby for $100 less. It’s a little heavier, but I’ve found that this simply gives me more power with my drives.

Cool design! It’s a great control paddle with plenty of power when you need it.
Matt Brimson (verified owner) –
Great paddle! My dinking has improved immensely, mostly due to the paddle’s super-thick core. And my drives from the baseline are strong too!
Sam Broline (verified owner) –
Super nice paddle! It gives me the control I need and has plenty of power. The price is right too!
Tom Watts (verified owner) –
I like to switch paddles, depending on how I feel like playing. This is my control paddle. I love it.
Michael Cantrow (verified owner) –
Tremendous control paddle with ample power. It was between the Cheetah and the Selkirk LUXX. I saved $100 with the Cheetah.
Rafael Acosta (verified owner) –
The feel you get from this paddle is terrific! I’ve always used thinner paddles. I bought this because it was relatively inexpensive, compared to the Selkirk LUXX. Now I am able to dink like the best. And it has plenty of power.
Randy Cook (verified owner) –
I love this paddle. I used to hit a lot of balls out. This paddle tempers my power. Plus, it looks cool.
Brian Osterly (verified owner) –
The grip circumference is a little small for me. But I just added an overgrip, and that solved the problem. Other than that, it’s one of my favorite paddles.
Jim Olson (verified owner) –
I’m a big guy and needed a paddle that gave me more control. This fit the bill. But it still allows me to smack some powerful shots.
Wendy Saunders (verified owner) –
This paddle is gorgeous. And it plays really well.
Paul Steger (verified owner) –
The edgeless design is great, but make sure you use the edge protection strips they give you. Otherwise, you will chip the edge.
Larry Birdsong (verified owner) –
This is a great control paddle. It’s a little heavier than the Selkirk LUXX, but that’s good if you want more power.

I didn’t think I’d like a paddle with a thicker core, but the feel and touch from this paddle is unmatched.
Bill Thomlanson (verified owner) –
This paddle is perfect! It is the best control paddle I’ve used. Plus, it has plenty of power. Just make sure you use the protective strips they provide or you’ll scratch it on the concrete.

If you need control and help with your drop shots, the paddle is outstanding. It also has plenty of power from the baseline.

Outstanding control paddle. It makes my drops much easier. It’s also a little heavier than my Selkirk LUXX Invikta, which gives it more power from the baseline.
Sam Knoxville (verified owner) –
I love this paddle. I prefer control over power. And this paddle delivers. The sweetspot is huge, due to the thickness of the core. It does provide ample power when I need it.
