    Thanks for the review, I was wondering if you would be able to help confirm the actual grip circumference for the Perseus? The JOOLA listing has it at 4.25 but their website was way off for the Hyperion C2.

    The fact that many pros prefer control paddles tells you that power is not something they generate from a paddle, but rather technique and that they place control over power - this should be the attitude of most amateurs, but yet, many are being swayed by the promise of "power paddles".

    Thank you for a great review. I wonder which one is more powerful? Hyperian or Perseus? I feel like there’s a mix of opinions on this matter.

      For these paddles, I thought the Hyperion, but generally I think the Perseus shape is more powerful.

    Warranty? Durability? I just keep thinking that those Selkirk paddles have a lifetime guarantee. Seems like a good fit for me. But what do I know?
    I just started playing 4 months ago and I'm getting tired of the dead spots on my Amazon special.
    I'm looking for one paddle to rule them all.
    Buy once cry once.

      The life time guarantee means you won’t break it. But Make no mistake, if you play 2-3 times a week, 2 hours at a time (like me) you’ll wear your sweet spots completely smooth within two months. My Selkirk power air Invikta has lost all its spin, and a lot of its pop and I’ve just replaced it. I’ve had it 8 months.

      @DinkAndDrive Před rokem +1

      If you can demo paddles I would try the Invikta power air, Legacy Pro. A lot of tennis players really like the power air but it wasn't for me but I use the Legacy and the spin you can create is very good.

    Unfortunate that there’s no mention of the 14mm (or Scorpeus for that matter), since it’s a variance of the paddle…

    Give me one reason why I should pay $250 for this when I can get the six zeroDBD, Legacy, vatic, Rombus, all for around $150 or less - and also the CRBN 1x for around the same price or a little less.

      All of those paddles are incredibly stiff outside of the Rombus, making the soft game incredibly hard to play. The only paddle that you listed that is relatively soft is actually the RP3 which is an elongated softer paddle similar to the Perseus. I have both, and they both play different.

    • @bigdog343
      @bigdog343 Před rokem +1

      Have to disagree. The CRBN1 and Electrum are soft as butter. Perhaps the others are a bit stiffer due to the thermoforming and unibody, but you can’t beat the other two for dinks and drops. And if you’re a big guy like me, who doesn’t need a power assist, the ball comes off those two paddles like a missle

      @@bigdog343 The CRBN 1x is an incredibly stiff paddle, what? The Filth and 1x are basically clones, and the ball comes off like absolute missiles due to how stiff the paddle is.

    I'm from tennis and I find most thermoformed i tried way too powerful. Power I can generate but control and feel is what I liked about the Perseus. I found the Hyperion way too muted in feel. I couldn't feel enough of the ball on contact. Perseus is fast at the net. Excellent for volleys, dinks and topspin volleys. Because of athe control natire ofbthis padel. U have to have good technique and accurate ball contact on or near the sweetspot. Anywhere else its less forgiving. If u like a large sweetspot and a forgiving paddel. This is not for u.
