Our take on the Agassi Pro V
JOOLA has introduced a new “KineticFrame” in its new Pro V models, which was inspired by kick-point engineering in hockey sticks and golf clubs.
The KineticFrame is built to flex and recover during impact, and unlike prior paddles with a “diving board” neck flex, the KineticFrame uses a proprietary flex-point architecture that allows the paddle head to move parallel to its original position.
The dual-pivot design produces a motion that JOOLA engineers say delivers:
– Predictable & repeatable exit trajectory.
– Precise power (ie. the more you put in, the more you get out).
– Reduced launch-angle deviation.
– Faster snapback for rapid exchanges.
– Improved energy transfer efficiency.

Is the Agassi Pro V worth $299.95?
Yes, for tennis converts and aggressive players who want top-end technology. At $299.95 it sits in the premium price range, and its KineticFrame is built for a more predictable launch, with a softer, more controlled feel than older JOOLA generations.
Who should buy the Agassi Pro V?
Tennis converts and aggressive players who want a high-performance paddle in the Agassi shape. The Pro V line seems geared toward higher-level players who can make small adjustments, since the KineticFrame reacts differently from older paddles at first. Kate Fahey is among the JOOLA pros who switched to it.

How does the Agassi Pro V play?
The KineticFrame bends and snaps back on contact while keeping the head parallel to where it started, so shots leave the face on a truer line and power tracks closely with your swing. The elongated 16mm frame carries a 118 swing weight and a 6.3 twist weight.
What are the strengths and trade-offs of the Agassi Pro V?
Its biggest edge is predictable, precise power with a softer feel. The main cost is a premium price and a short adjustment period.
