Description
The JOOLA Collin Johns Scorpeus 3S 16mm is a 16mm pickleball paddle built around the control and stability of a thicker core. It is designed by pro player Collin Johns and suits advanced players who prefer a controlled, attacking game. Its main difference is the Charged Carbon surface paired with a Propulsion Core, which combine for a larger sweet spot and a more stable feel.
Key Features
- HyperFoam Edge Wall – a foam edge that widens the sweet spot and reduces vibration on contact
- Charged Carbon surface – a high-friction face that helps you generate more spin on every stroke
- Unibody construction – carbon fiber runs from face to handle, with no weak joints for a firmer hit
- 16mm core thickness – extra stability and control, with added power for aggressive shots
