JOOLA Ben Johns Perseus Pro V

Hand-assembled to your spec — not pulled off a shelf. Pick your grip and your thickness, we build it and ship it ready to play.

The Paddle

Ben Johns' shape, current generation. What actually makes the Perseus work is where the sweet spot sits: the rounded upper corners hold it in the center of a long face, so the extra length reads as reach rather than a longer trip to find the middle. The Pro V adds KineticFrame at the throat — it flexes and recovers through impact, which is what smooths out the launch angle on drives and takes the sting out of a hard-hit reset. Under the face is the Propulsion core, and a Hyperfoam Edge Wall wraps the rim for stability when contact drifts.

Play it and it's controlled power, not a cannon. The core produces pop without demanding a full swing, and the 116 swing weight keeps it quick enough to survive a hands battle. The textured carbon face grabs — 2,170 RPM in testing, high for the category. In 16mm you get the thicker, more stable build: softer feel, better consistency when you're resetting under pressure. In 14mm it snaps back faster, with more pop on counters and a lighter swing for aggressive net play.

Who It's For

Competitive players who already place the ball — the Propulsion core gives controlled pop without needing a full swing, so short compact shots still carry.
Anyone who wants reach — the elongated Perseus profile covers more of the line and gets you to overheads a standard shape leaves behind.
Two-handed backhand players — the 5.5" handle leaves room for the second hand without choking the swing.
! Not the best fit if: you want the paddle to supply the power for you. 116 swing weight is average for the class and the core is tuned for controlled pop, not maximum ball speed — a heavier, stiffer power build will out-hit this every time.
