Verdicts
JOOLA Scorpeus Pro IV 16
The Perseus formula in a shorter, faster body. Control 90 and spin 90 with a 112 swing weight makes this the easiest Gen 4 JOOLA to swing.
Ronbus R3 Pulsar
Ronbus keeps doing the same trick: flagship construction at mid-tier money. Nothing in the R3's DNA drops below 72, and spin 88 matches paddles costing $100 more.
