Middleweight/Medium Grip

JOOLA Scorpeus Pro V Collin Johns 16mm Pickleball Paddle

Take control of the tempo and extend every rally with the JOOLA Scorpeus Pro V Collin Johns 16mm Pickleball Paddle. Built around the same compact Scorpeus shape, this version emphasizes steadiness and precision for players who thrive on consistency. New to the Pro V is KineticFrame technology that adds power on offense and cushions defensive strikes on a level we have never experienced.

At 16" by 8", Scorpeus remains the shortest and widest profile in the Pro V family. Collin’s boasts a thicker 4.25in grip circumference. Compared to elongated Hyperion and Perseus models, it offers less reach but greater stability and forgiveness at the net. Compared to the hybrid Kosmos, it feels even more planted and defensive. The 16mm core increases dwell time, helping absorb incoming pace and redirect shots with accuracy. Within the Pro V lineup, this configuration is the most control focused widebody, especially suited to strategic doubles play.

Key Features

  • Scorpeus Widebody Shape - Broad 8" face for maximum forgiveness and net stability.
  • 16mm Control Core - Added dwell time for resets, blocks, and controlled counters.
  • KineticFrame Technology - Flex integrated into the throat for efficient energy absorption and redirection.
  • Honeycomb Propulsion Core - Consistent energy return with controlled spin production.
  • Hyper-Foam Edge Wall - Enhanced perimeter stability for reliable off-center performance.

 

Technology

KineticFrame throat integration graphic
KineticFrame

Integrated into the paddle's throat to create a slimmer frame that flexes to store momentum and releases it on impact—helping improve ball placement during fast exchanges.

Propulsion Core internal structure graphic
Propulsion Core

Adds controlled flex inside the paddle for a responsive, spring-like effect—easier access to power on drives, counters, and quick speed-ups without having to swing harder.

Foam injection around the perimeter increases stability and forgiveness, contributing to a larger effective sweet spot and more consistent performance across the face.
