The JOOLA 3S series paddles were the first to ever be UPA-A certified in the summer of 2024. They have slightly less power than the Mod TA-15, but more control and still plenty of pop for big serves, powerful third-shot drives and strong counters at the kitchen line. The Perseus 3S is the current paddle choice of Ben Johns, Dekel Bar and several other JOOLA sponsored pros – as well as a few pros who don’t currently have a paddle sponsor, which is how you know it’s good. The 3S series paddles are not USAP certified as of January 2025.
