Summary
The Joola Ben Johns Perseus 3 16mm 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 16mm core thickness may provide a balance of power and control. Carbon fiber faces are often associated with control and feel. The elongated shape could offer a larger sweet spot and increased reach. This paddle has a high swing weight (119), which may provide more power but require more effort to swing. The twist weight is relatively low (6.12).
Given its specifications, this paddle might be suitable for intermediate to advanced players seeking a blend of power and control. The high spin rating (9.1/10), drive speed rating (8.9/10), and volley speed rating (9.4/10) suggest potential strengths in generating spin, power, and quick volleys. The relatively low twist weight rating (4.5/10) may indicate a potential weakness in stability on off-center hits.
