Friday Aura Elongated vs JOOLA Magnus Pro IV 16mm
Two elongated paddles, side by side. Specs are the published figures; prices are what US stores charged at our latest check, shipping included.
What actually separates them
- The cores are built differently: Friday Aura Elongated is full foam, JOOLA Magnus Pro IV 16mm is honeycomb with foam edge. That is usually the difference you feel first on contact.
- Friday Aura Elongated has the longer handle (5.5 in against 5 in), which matters if you hit two-handed backhands.
