The Joola Perseus is a new joint venture with Ben Johns. The thermoformed unibody paddle uses the new charged carbon surface technology coupled with a fully encased carbon fiber for power and stability. The handle offers a tacky yet soft grip that absorbs sweat. Handle breakage , seen in the Hyperion CFS, should not occur with the Perseus due to the unibody construction. You may want to consider an overgrip. The 14 mm paddle has a swing weight of 112 and the 16mm paddle is 116. While the spin is good, it is not on par with other thermoform paddles. In the past, Joola has had an issue with grit wearing off or having inconsistent placement; Hopefully this has changed…it is just too early to tell. You will find the 14 mm offers more power and therefore better if you’re a singles player. If you prefer the 16mm and want added power, consider adding lead tape. Bottom line, it is hard to spend $225-$250 on a paddle when there are better ones on the market for less. Overall, it is a good paddle, just not revolutionary.

The CAS (carbon abrasion surface) model within the Ben Johnson Hyperion series, showcases a carbon fiber face layer on top of a fiberglass layer to add more pop. The surface grit is akin to a sandpaper feel. Unfortunately, the grit tends to wear off with use.
The CFS models tend to wear better, as the grit is built into the surface material. The polymer honeycomb cells are larger than the CFS models, for a more responsive feel. The CAS model is much less head heavy than the CFS. The paddle is easy to maneuver while providing ample control. If you prefer a strong power paddle and don’t mind the head weight, the CFS may be a better option for you. With a long handle, the CAS is excellent for two handed shots.
