JOOLA Perseus MOD TA-15 Review: Power, accuracy, and spin

2/14/2025

The Best Pickleball Paddle for power, accuracy, and spin. Paddle Level Intermediate to Advance

The JOOLA Perseus MOD TA-15 is a high-performance 16mm paddle designed for players seeking a balance of power, accuracy, and spin. Measuring 16.5 inches in length with a 7.5-inch width, it features a 5.12-inch grip and weighs around 8 ounces—slightly lighter than its predecessor due to changes in its propulsion core. This paddle delivers excellent control and consistency, even as a power-oriented model. The spin potential is impressive, with a trampoline effect that keeps the ball on the paddle longer, enhancing both offensive and defensive play.

However, players may need to adjust their soft game due to the pronounced trampoline effect on dinks and drops. The paddle also produces a noticeable sound on impact, which may be a factor for indoor players. While priced at $279.95, durability concerns exist due to the foam core modification. Despite this, JOOLA’s strong customer support provides reassurance. Overall, the Perseus MOD TA-15 is a compelling option for those prioritizing precision and spin while still benefiting from a powerful feel.
