Overview
The Hyperion Pro IV 16mm is the same elongated shape Ben Johns has refined over multiple generations — built for players who want crisp touch at the kitchen and enough reach to chase down wide balls. The 16mm core sits in that sweet spot between pop and control, and JOOLA's TechFlex Power insert at the throat adds a noticeably soft feel on reset shots without robbing you of pace on drives.
Highlights
- Elongated 16.5 × 7.5 in shape — extra reach without the unwieldy swing of an oversized paddle
- TechFlex Power + Honeycomb Propulsion core — dwell time and feel that holds up in fast exchanges
- Hyper-Foam Edge Wall — enlarges the sweet spot right to the edges
- Textured carbon fibre face — reliable spin generation on drives, serves and drops
The pro behind it
Ben Johns is widely considered the greatest pickleball player of all time — 120+ PPA titles, a 108-match singles winning streak, and triple crowns at the US Open two years running. His younger brother Collin is his longtime doubles partner, and together they held the world #1 doubles ranking for three consecutive seasons.
