Verdicts
JOOLA Mod TA-15 3S 16
The Mod platform splits the difference between Perseus control and Magnus power. Spin 92 with control 88 is a rare pairing, and the 16.3 in hybrid keeps hand speed usable.
RPM Pickleball Q2 Elongated 16mm
RPM's Gen 4 full-foam Q2 trades the Friction Pro's honeycomb feel for a firmer, more powerful response. The published 114 swing weight is lighter than most elongated power paddles, while the 6.1 twist weight is on the low side for the shape.
