Verdicts
Babolat BALLR+ 16
Babolat brings its RPM tennis grit to pickleball on a 16 mm hybrid. The face texture is the story — it spins like a raw carbon paddle without the chalky wear pattern.
JOOLA Hyperion C2 CFS 16
Simone Jardim's signature Hyperion is the softest-launching elongated JOOLA still in wide distribution, and it is now priced like a mid-tier paddle.
