As of September 2025, Liz Truluck, a professional pickleball player, has been associated with JOOLA paddles. During the Carvana PPA Mesa Cup in February 2025, Truluck’s JOOLA paddle was challenged by opponents who suspected it was delaminated and potentially exceeding the permitted power standards. Subsequent testing confirmed that the paddle did indeed exceed legal limits, leading to a fine and forfeiture of match points for Truluck. (thedinkpickleball.com)
Following this incident, Truluck switched to a different paddle during the match. However, this second paddle was also challenged and subsequently failed testing, resulting in further penalties. (pickleballhq.co)
Despite these challenges, Truluck continues to compete professionally, representing the Carolina Hogs in the MLP. (picklewave.com)
