Description
The JOOLA Ben Johns Hyperion Pro V is an elongated pickleball paddle built for players who rely on hand speed, reach and quick reactions. Its aero-curve head cuts through the air more cleanly, helping you stay forward at the net and cover more of the court in fast exchanges. It is the signature paddle associated with Ben Johns, and it comes in 14mm and 16mm thickness options.
Key Features
- KineticFrame – a slimmer throat that flexes and recovers on contact, storing energy during the swing and releasing it precisely at impact for better placement
- Propulsion Core – a controlled-rebound honeycomb core that adds power to drives, counters and speed-ups without forcing a harder swing
- Hyper-Foam Edge Wall – reinforced foam around the perimeter that widens the sweet spot and keeps off-center hits consistent
- Elongated Hyperion shape (16.5" x 7.5") – more leverage and reach for volleys and overheads, suited to topspin and aggressive drives
