JOOLA Agassi Heat Vision 16mm — Andre Agassi’s Pickleball Paddle
Andre Agassi won 8 Grand Slams. He played with more feel and precision than almost any baseline player of his era. JOOLA worked with him to bring that same design philosophy into pickleball — a paddle built for players who want control and stability first, not just raw power.
The Heat Vision 16mm is the result. Thermoformed polypropylene core, textured carbon fibre face, SK Film for vibration control, and USAP certified for competitive play. It’s designed specifically to help players — especially those coming from tennis — find their game in pickleball faster.
Available in Flash Yellow, Blaze Red, and Charge Surge Green.
Thermoformed PP Honeycomb Core — 16mm
The 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core is the heart of this paddle. Thermoforming means the core and face are bonded under heat and pressure — a process that creates a more unified structure than standard paddle construction. The result is better energy transfer through the face and more consistent feel across the entire hitting surface.
16mm thickness is the sweet spot for control players. Thicker than a 14mm paddle — more dwell time on the ball, softer feel, more placement control. Not as thick as a 18mm — you keep enough pop for aggressive shots without losing the fast response you need at the net
.
Textured Carbon Fibre Surface — Grip on Every Shot
The face is textured carbon fibre — the texture creates friction between the paddle surface and the ball at contact. More friction means more spin on every shot without changing your technique. Topspin drives stay low. Slice returns cut sharply. Drops die faster after the bounce.
Carbon fibre is also light and stiff — the face doesn’t flex at contact, so energy transfer is direct and consistent.
SK Film — Takes the Sting Out
SK Film is a vibration-dampening layer built into the paddle construction. Hard shots and mis-hits create vibration that travels up the arm. Over a long session, that vibration adds up to arm fatigue and discomfort. SK Film absorbs a portion of that vibration so the paddle feels softer in the hand — particularly noticeable on off-centre hits that would otherwise jar the arm.
For players who come from tennis with existing arm sensitivity, this is a meaningful feature.
Feel-Tec Pure Grip — Comfortable Through Long Sessions
The Feel-Tec Pure grip is comfortable in the hand and moisture-resistant — doesn’t get slippery when your hand sweats during a long session. The 5.5-inch handle length gives enough room for a two-handed backhand if that’s your preference. 4.25-inch grip circumference is the standard for most adult hands.
Elongated Shape — More Reach, More Power Potential
At 16.5 inches long and 7.5 inches wide, this is an elongated paddle. More length means more reach on wide balls and more leverage behind power shots. The trade-off is a slightly smaller sweet spot compared to a wider paddle — elongated shapes suit players who are comfortable with their footwork and can consistently get to the ball well.
USAP Certified — Tournament Legal
Approved for competitive play by USA Pickleball. If you play in tournaments or competitive club matches, this paddle qualifies.
7.8 Ounces — Balanced Weight
7.8oz sits in the middle weight range for pickleball paddles. Heavy enough for drive shots and blocking, light enough for quick hands at the net. Most players find this weight range comfortable for full sessions without arm fatigue.
Who Should Buy This
Tennis players transitioning to pickleball who want a paddle that feels familiar — Agassi’s input means the design philosophy connects with tennis muscle memory. Intermediate to advanced pickleball players who prioritise control and placement over pure power. Competitive players who need a USAP-certified paddle for tournaments.
