The Joola Perseus 14mm Mod TA-15 is an elongated paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. This combination may offer a blend of power and control. Weighing 7.8 oz with a 5.5-inch grip, it falls into the midweight category. Its swing weight of 113 is considered medium, indicating a moderate level of effort required for swinging. The elongated shape could provide a larger sweet spot and increased reach.
This paddle's drive speed (57.7 mph) and volley speed (36.6 mph) rate highly, suggesting strong power and pop potential. The spin rating is also above average (2055 RPM). However, the lower twist weight rating (5.8) may indicate slightly less resistance to twisting on off-center hits.
