Overview
Where Ben's Hyperion goes long, Collin's Scorpeus goes wide — and the difference is immediately felt. The 16 × 8 in shape sits lower in the hand, keeps the sweet spot centred and directly in front of you, and the high twist weight means mis-hits stay on target rather than spraying wide. If your game is built around the kitchen, resets, and placing the ball exactly where you intend, this is the Pro IV for you.
Highlights
- Wide-body 16 × 8 in shape — the most control-oriented geometry in the Pro IV lineup
- High twist weight — exceptional stability on off-centre contact
- 16mm Honeycomb Propulsion core — soft, controlled feel on dinks and drops
- Hyper-Foam Edge Wall — expands the usable sweet spot edge to edge
The pro behind it
Collin Johns is a former ATP Tour player who partnered with younger brother Ben Johns to become the world's #1 men's doubles team for three straight seasons, racking up 43 PPA medals at a 74% podium rate. After their partnership wrapped at the 2025 PPA Masters, Collin continues to compete on the PPA Tour — still one of the most tactically sharp players in the game.
