Agassi Pro 16mm Paddle

Victor Hernandez, Head Facilitator 

The Ask: A tennis-style feel with serious spin

Victor brings a lifelong tennis background to his game, so the move to pickleball called for equipment that matched his strengths. The Agassi Pro 16mm was the perfect fit. Developed with tennis icon Andre Agassi, this paddle features a generous sweet spot across the top edges and bottom corners for sharp accuracy on every shot.

“I chose this paddle because of the similarities to a tennis racquet, offering spin and power,” Victor says. “One feature I like is the amount of spin I can produce from this paddle.”

For players who want to hit with confidence and spin, this paddle delivers reliable performance.

Ben Johns Perseus Pro IV 14mm Paddle

Elana Bush, CityPickle Coach 

The Ask: Fast at the net and easy on the hands

Elana first picked up a paddle at a local park and quickly fell for the sport. As a CityPickle coach, she now plays with the Perseus Pro IV 14mm and depends on its agility and comfort. This updated model features a lighter core and balanced weight placement, helping players react quickly in fast-paced exchanges. The 14mm design improves handling and shot placement while reducing fatigue.

“This paddle gives me a huge edge in the game because of how maneuverable it is in my hands. I have lightning fast hands at the net, and I also super appreciate that the grip circumference on this paddle is a little bit smaller. I have super tiny hands, so it fits in my hands quite perfectly.”

For quick hands and total control, check out Elana’s go-to paddle.

Ben Johns Perseus Pro IV 16mm Paddle

Agnes Abude, CityPickle Coach 
The Ask: Built for reach, weight, and solid power

Agnes got into pickleball after switching from tennis during a stay in California. Her go-to paddle is the Perseus Pro IV 16mm, which provides the length and strength she looks for. Compared to the 14mm, this version brings added mass and drive while maintaining the same playability. Its extended handle and surface increase range and generate more force for strong finishes.

“What I love most about it is its longer handle, and longer face, with a heavier swing weight which gives me more power.”

Ideal for players seeking reach, stability, and a solid feel, this paddle packs punch.
