JOOLA Agassi Edge 16mm pickleball paddle 🏓
Description:
This carbon fiber pickleball paddle brings edge-of-court control and added spin to recreational and competitive play. The Agassi-shaped profile increases the sweet spot toward the upper edge, helping players get more power on drives and improved touch at the net. It is a good option for players wanting a blend of feel and responsiveness on both indoor and outdoor courts.
Key Points
The paddle features a textured carbon fiber surface that enhances grip on the ball for additional spin and control. For players who like a slightly longer reach, the Agassi shape moves the sweet spot upward so volleys and overheads feel more solid. The integrated NFC chip connects to the JOOLA Connect app for access to exclusive content and an easy way to register the paddle, and the manufacturer states a 12-month warranty. 🎾
This model is USAP and UPA-A certified, which means it meets the official standards required for many organized events according to the certification bodies. Consider that a carbon fiber surface can feel firmer than composite faces, and some players may prefer a softer touch for long dink exchanges. 📱

Usage Recommendations
Warm up with soft volleys and controlled dinks to get used to the firmer carbon fiber face before moving to aggressive drives. For players transitioning from wider paddles, the slightly elongated shape helps with reach on smashes and roll shots. If you favor exaggerated spin on serves and third-shot drops, use the textured surface to get more bite on the ball while keeping racket speed consistent.
Store the paddle away from extreme heat and moisture to preserve the honeycomb core and the textured face. During casual play, the lighter weight helps with quick wrist action, and during competitive rallies the extended sweet spot assists in maintaining depth on power strokes.
