I'm a big fan of the Collin Johns Scorpeus and the Hyperion CFS 16 was one of, if not the best paddle on the market for quite some time. A lot of pros use Joola and for good reason. They're good paddles.
Times are changing though. Honestly, you don't need to spend Joola prices (^$200) to get a really good paddle. See brands like SixZero or VaticPro.

I'm in love with the Prism Flash, especially at the $100 price point. Wow. Probably the best raw carbon fiber paddle & best overall paddle you can get for $100. This is the paddle I recommend to all my friends getting started.
