Frequently Asked Questions
Can I demo Joola paddles before buying?
Yes! Both EPC West and South offer a demo program. You can rent any Joola paddle for a small fee, and if you decide to purchase, that fee is credited toward your new paddle.
Which paddle does Ben Johns use?
Ben Johns currently plays with the Joola Perseus 3. It features a Charged Carbon surface and a 16mm core for a perfect balance of power and touch.
Do members get discounts on Joola gear?
Absolutely. All active EPC members receive tiered discounts on Joola products, ranging from 10% to 15% off depending on the membership level.
What is the difference between 14mm and 16mm cores?
A 14mm core is thinner, providing more “pop” and speed off the paddle face. A 16mm core is thicker, providing more vibration dampening and control, which is often preferred for soft-game play.
Do you stock Joola apparel?
Yes, we carry a full range of Joola performance apparel, including moisture-wicking shirts, shorts, hats, and the official Team Joola competition gear.
Is there a warranty on Joola paddles?
Yes, Joola provides a manufacturer’s warranty on all performance paddles. When you purchase through the EPC Pro Shop, we can assist you with any warranty claims if they arise.
What makes Joola pickleballs special?
Joola balls are engineered for true flight and consistent bounce. They are designed to withstand cracking better than standard balls, even in Edmonton’s cooler morning sessions.
Are Joola paddles suitable for beginners?
While Joola is a pro-level brand, they offer models like the Vision and Essentials series that are perfect for beginners looking for high-quality gear that will grow with their skills.
