Description
The JOOLA Steffi Graf Pro V 16mm is a pickleball paddle developed with tennis legend Steffi Graf, built for players who want a larger sweet spot and a longer reach. It is an elongated, 16mm raw carbon paddle for players who mix controlled play with firm attacks. Its main difference is the wider, more forgiving hitting zone that feels familiar to players coming from tennis.
