Joola Ben Johns Perseus vs Hyperion - how to choose?
Joola is quickly proving to be one of the top brands within Pickleball in the USA but this hasn't always been the case. Joola started out making Table Tennis equipment in the 1950s and became the official table sponsor for the 2000 and 2004 Olympics.
In 2022 Joola decided to take on the pickleball market and quickly took it by storm by signing World Number 1, Ben Johns, to help them develop some of the world's most technically advanced paddles to date!
Summary: Our verdict
If you're in the market for a new pickleball paddle, then the Ben Johns' range from Joola is definitely not to be missed.
