Technologies
Carbon Friction Surface (CFS) The Hyperion 3S is equipped with Joolaâs advanced Carbon Friction Surface, a textured layer that enhances your ability to generate spin. The rough surface maximizes friction between the paddle and the ball, allowing for improved spin control on topspin drives, slices, and cut shots. The carbon fiber not only boosts spin potential but also ensures a durable and responsive surface, offering consistent performance throughout the paddleâs lifespan. Whether you want to add more bite to your shots or finesse to your drop shots, the CFS technology provides superior ball manipulation.
Reactive Polymer Core The core of the Hyperion 3S features Joolaâs proprietary Reactive Polymer Core, designed to deliver a perfect blend of power and control. This advanced honeycomb structure provides a soft, responsive feel for better control on delicate shots, while still offering the power needed for aggressive smashes. The core's shock-absorbing properties reduce vibrations, creating a stable and comfortable feel with each hit. This core technology gives players the flexibility to handle both fast-paced volleys and controlled dinks with ease, adapting to any style of play.
Perimeter Weighting System The Hyperion 3S integrates a Perimeter Weighting System that redistributes weight around the edges of the paddle to enhance stability and expand the sweet spot. This results in a more forgiving paddle, even on off-center hits, providing better control during fast-paced exchanges. The added perimeter weight also boosts power, allowing for more force behind each shot without sacrificing accuracy. Players will find this weighting system especially useful for maintaining control during rapid exchanges at the net.
Hyperfoam Edge Wall One of the unique features of the Hyperion 3S is the Hyperfoam Edge Wall, which injects a specialized foam into the outer edges of the paddle. This technology enhances the stability of the paddle, creating a more solid feel while also enlarging the sweet spot for more consistent play. The Hyperfoam Edge Wall helps reduce the paddle's twisting on off-center hits, giving you more control and better shot placement, even in high-pressure situations.
EdgeShield Protection The slim EdgeShield protective edge guard provides crucial durability without adding unnecessary weight. It protects the paddle from wear and tear while preserving the full surface area for shot-making. The low-profile design minimizes interference with your play and ensures the paddle remains agile and easy to handle. This feature is ideal for players who want a paddle that can withstand the rigors of competitive play while maintaining performance and longevity.
Comfort Grip System The Hyperion 3S features Joola's Comfort Grip System, designed to reduce vibrations and provide a secure, comfortable hold. The cushioned, high-tack grip ensures the paddle stays securely in your hand, even during long, intense rallies. The ergonomic design also helps prevent fatigue by reducing the impact of vibrations traveling through the handle, allowing you to play longer with greater comfort and control.
Thermoformed Construction This paddle is built using thermoformed construction, ensuring that the materials are fused seamlessly for a stronger, more stable structure. This technique enhances durability and creates a more cohesive feel throughout the paddle, minimizing dead spots and improving the overall consistency of your shots. The result is a paddle that feels solid on every contact, giving you confidence and reliability during competitive matches.
