Light With A Lot Of Power

I bought the paddle right after it came out and love it. I like the light weight 7.6 ounces and it still has a lot of power so I didn't need to add weights. What I don't like is the fact that I can't use it in any tournaments' not even little local events because the padded is not approved. I play rec games with it but when I go to a tournament I switch off between my Gearbox Pro and my CRBN 2X

Great Paddle But Can’t Use It.

I bought this a few months ago, like it but haven’t been using it. People complain saying it’s not authorized, and also can’t use in tournaments. I’d like to swap it for the new PERSEUS 14MM MOD TA-15 PRO PLAYER EDITION . Hope Joola does something.

Love These Paddles!

My wife has the Ben Johns Perseus 14mm Gen3 and I bought the the Anna Bright Scorpeus 14mm Gen3 and we both love the paddles however one of the 3 league play in won't allow them so we're stuck between a rock and a hard place! Looks like we'll have to return them for credit as we can't afford to keep them and buy two more paddles to play in the other league. What will you do with the returned paddles anyway? It would be nice if we could keep them and still get the credit. Regards, Rich &. Cheryl We're both 3.5 players who live in Boynton Beach, FL home of Anna Leigh Waters, J.W. And Jorja Johnston

Amazing Product!!!

This pickleball paddle is amazing. The grip is very soft but is not slippery even when your outside sweating. The paddle is lightweight and is very versatile. So far the paddle is holding up pretty well to weekly games.

10/10 Get This Paddle

This board has amazing coverage. It’s not only a little larger than the normal size for being light weight. But also the board texture makes it seem like it really grabs the ball! It has almost a slight sandpaper like texture, over a very slippery smooth surface. I felt that this paddle upped my game a little better. I made more contact and had better hits with this paddle!

What? Delisted?!

I bought this paddle 1 day before USAP announced it was delisting all Joola Gen3 paddles. Now what? I'd like to use the paddle competitively, but even using it recreationally has been a hassle with opponents criticizing the use of an "illegal" paddle. So therefore, I haven't really used my Gen 3 very much at all. I'm kind of stuck in a catch-22. Waiting for more information from Joola and USAP.

Fantastic Paddle With Great Ball Grip

I received the #complimentary @Joola Ben Johns Perseus 3 14mm Pickleball paddle from @influenster and #joola for free in return for my honest review of the product. This racquet is of average size and weight with a control rating of 96, a power rating of 98, and a spin of 98. When hitting with this paddle, it is remarkably easy to slice the ball into the kitchen area for a difficult-to-return drop shot. The grip is nicely padded so an over-grip is not needed. It also has a NFC reader on the paddle if you have that turned on in your phone setting, just tap your phone on it to register and receive free videos. I’m very happy with this product and plan to use it for my next game. #joola
