No Asterisk.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePickleball currently runs two certification bodies, and plenty of paddles are legal under one and not the other. If you play USAP-sanctioned events and UPA-A events, that is a real problem and an expensive one. The JOOLA Perseus Pro 3S Dual holds USAP PBCoR.43 \u003cem\u003eand\u003c\/em\u003e UPA-A certification at the same time. One paddle, every draw you enter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy That Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost players do not find out a paddle is ineligible until they are at the table before a match. Buying dual-certified removes the question entirely, and it protects the purchase against a rule change in either direction. For a club player entering a mix of local and tour-affiliated events, it is the single most practical spec on the sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Paddle Itself\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the Perseus shape: elongated, 16.5\" x 7.5\", built for reach at the kitchen and leverage on the drive. Textured carbon fiber face over the Propulsion Core, with the 5.5\" grip length that two-handed backhand players need. The Feel-Tec Pure Grip is JOOLA's tackier compound and holds up better in humid summer play than a standard cushion grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e16mm\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16mm core plays softer with a longer dwell time. Third-shot drops sit down, resets carry off the face when you are stretched, and hands battles at the kitchen are more forgiving than a thin-core paddle. It is the control-leaning build of the 3S Dual line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Elongated, 16.5\" x 7.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCore thickness: 16mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 8.0 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrip length: 5.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrip circumference: 4.25\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface: Textured carbon fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCore: Propulsion Core\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrip: JOOLA Feel-Tec Pure Grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertification: USAP PBCoR.43 and UPA-A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping and in-store.\u003c\/strong\u003e Available to order online or to try in person at our Edison, New Jersey showroom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JOOLA","offers":[{"title":"16mm","offer_id":48098323267810,"sku":"PICK-JOOL-PADL-PE3S-16MM","price":199.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7924\/0418\/files\/3_0051_2R1A6092-93_6657000a-447e-4c94-9c41-094771baf777.jpg?v=1785204881","url":"https:\/\/topcricketstore.com\/products\/joola-perseus-pro-3s-dual-16mm-pickleball-paddle","provider":"TopCricketStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
