Verdicts

Engage Pursuit Pro EX 16

Engage's soft-core philosophy taken to its logical end. Launch angle 46 is the lowest in the database — the ball simply does not pop up off resets.

JOOLA Hyperion Pro V 16

The elongated sibling to the Perseus Pro V, and the drive paddle of the pair. Extra reach and plow-through turn third-shot drives into finishable balls, but hand speed at the kitchen is the trade.
