Thanks good to know! Still learning all the details of the industry. Just found this video for anyone else that was curious: ruclips.net/video/6OO0UoHGiFI/видео.html
Nothing, the core layup with honeycomb polypropylene and foam is the same and the manufacturing process w intentional slight core crushing is also identical to the Gen 3. The only thing Joola toned down is the surface grit for a little less spin.
That trampoline effect tho, good review my guyyyy
@@ruxinnrafi3904 thanks brotha!
Great review! Def in the market for a new paddle!
Picked up a 16mm to replace my diadem warrior v1 after 3 years. Excited to get out there and start testing it
@@Lawless116 Nice! It packs a punch for sure
It’s my understanding that the “grit” is a result of the weave of the peel ply since the carbon fiber on most paddles isn’t woven but unidirectional.

Peel ply is just a sheet they use to apply texture/grit on the surface layer of the paddle and is peeled away
I like the new Mod also it is a keeper.
Nice! Yeah I think I'm going to keep it for singles
Good review!
@@abhaysharma6292 Thanks! Trying to make them better each time 👍
What is keeping this paddle from core crushing in under a month like the gen 3’s?
It's definitely a possibility. This paddle is already a risky buy due to the whole Gen 3 ban situation, I'm just here to share my observations 👍

Are u sure swingweight it is 5 digits less because JOHNKEW said it’s the same swingweight on his video today ??
I must have gotten an exceptionally light unit because I did the test again just now and got averages of 113.19 (Mod) and 117.85 (Gen 3) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@maxlevelpickleball that’s crazy ! Needs lead haha! What’s the oz on it ?
@@mariokaldas4795 7.68 oz on the Mod. Maybe they forgot to add something on mine 😂
@@maxlevelpickleball weird but hey faster hands lucky you
@@mariokaldas4795 Also realized John Kew only reviewed the 16 mm and I reviewed the 14 mm
should be banned . so tricky paddle
