Summary

The JOOLA Perseus 16mm Mod TA-15 is an elongated paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. Its standard weight is around 8 oz with a 5.5-inch grip. The 118 swing weight is considered high, suggesting more power potential. This paddle may be suitable for intermediate to advanced players seeking a blend of power and control.

The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel, while the thicker core may enhance control and dampen vibrations. The elongated shape could provide a larger sweet spot. The high swing weight may generate more power, but could also reduce maneuverability for some. The manufacturer's data suggests high drive speed and pop, rating in the 98th and 93rd percentile respectively. Spin is also rated highly at the 87th percentile. The twist weight rating is in the 39th percentile, indicating moderate torsional stability.
