Scorpeus 3S

Has played the Collin Johns Scorpeus 3S 16mm on court before and liked it.

“I have tried this before on the court, and had liked it”

Nearly 6 months on the Scorpeus 3S 16mm: they keep coming back for its standout sweet spot, though it's starting to crunch at the top.

“I play the 16mm scorpeus and while I’ve tried to switch I keep coming back to it for nearly 6 months now. It’s a great paddle and the sweet spot is what sets it apart.”

Liked the Scorpeus 3S 14mm more than two ALWs: more power and a plusher feel, though higher pop makes it harder to control.

“I've used the Scorpeus 3s 14mm, ALW 12.7mm, and the ALW 14.3mm, but not in a side-by-side test. I liked the Scorpeus 3s 14mm the most.”

Frustrated with a Ronbus R4.14, they switched back to their Scorpeus 3S mid-session and played noticeably better.

“It got so frustrating that I switched back mid-session to my Joola Scorpeus 3S, and even all the other players noticed I was playing way better”

Two Collin Johns Scorpeus 3S paddles played completely differently, one hollow and poppy and one dense and controllable, showing inconsistent quality.

“I have two gen 3s, and one of them needs to be returned tomorrow. They're both Collin Johns Scorpeus, but it's crazy how different they are.”

Likes the Scorpeus 3S a lot: better control on resets and dink battles against bangers, cleaner still with side weights.

“I got a scorpius 3s for Black Friday, I like it a lot. I hit against a ton of bangers, and the control on resets and then dink battles is better.”

After heavy play it has lost some responsiveness and grip.

“I feel like it’s lost some responsiveness and grip.”
