• Finally, a power paddle that you can trust. Selkirk invested in building a power paddle with more intense quality control and a one-year warranty.

  It’s time to turn up the power. The SLK ERA Power delivers lively power with a massive sweet spot, serving players with aggressive play styles. 

  Hard drives. Spin-heavy shots. The type of velocity that catches opponents off guard.

  It’s designed with a new Dynamic Fusion Core — polypropylene honeycomb surrounded by closed-cell, low-density EVA foam — which offers a stable feel with lasting durability. Its dwell time and spin help you place the ball where you want it in the soft game, just before you flex its power for the putaway.

  Power that can be heard and felt, keeping up with fast and competitive play.

  The 3-Layered Face puts emphasis on your shots with stiffness and rigidity for power, while maintaining flex and durability for a consistent feel.

  This paddle is for the players who don’t hold back, whether in a tournament or recreationally. The players who bring the energy and want their paddle to do the same. 

  Behind the Product

  As pickleball continues to evolve, more players are looking for power in their paddles.

  The challenge? Some power paddles lack a generous sweet spot and proper quality control — they launch balls long, punish off-center hits with inconsistent feel, and break down quickly.

  Here’s the solution: the SLK ERA Power uses an advanced Dynamic Fusion Core for increased stability and forgiveness without sacrificing lively power. Its quality is backed by our SLK 1-year limited warranty — just because you play hard, doesn’t mean your paddle should wear out quickly. This core is paired with a 3-Layered Face — a strategic weave of fiberglass and T700 Raw Carbon Fiber — making this a power-first paddle with spin and feel to back it up. 

  Power from the baseline. Pop at the net. Sweet spot for dinks. Spin exceeding 2,000 RPM.

  Built for hard drives and spin-loaded shots that force your opponents to react on your terms, the SLK ERA Power adds serious velocity to your game — while maintaining soft touch when you need it most.

  Widebody | Longer Handle & Wide Paddle Shape: The widebody shape features a longer handle for added reach and extra space for two-handed backhands. This shape enhances stability and delivers a more consistent, forgiving sweet spot — especially on off-center hits. Ideal for players seeking the largest sweet spot and a consistent feel and performance across the face.

  Product Features

  Dynamic Fusion Core for Stability and Forgiveness.

  A low-density EVA foam perimeter with composite edge reinforcements encapsulates the polypropylene honeycomb core, forming a fusion core. By distributing mass towards the edges, the ERA Power's construction increases the paddle's stability — resulting in a more forgiving sweet spot for off-center contact. This Dynamic Fusion Core is engineered to give you power on your attacks with a large sweet spot you can trust.

  3-Layered Face for a Dynamic Blend of Power and Spin.

  This face blends woven fiberglass and 90-degree T700 Raw Carbon Fiber to enhance velocity and spin. This balances rigidity and flex that results in added power and durability needed for performance consistency. 

  Reinforced Edge Technology for Durability and Increased Sweet Spot.

  Reinforced Edge Technology protects your paddle by increasing edge durability. It also avoids twisting, helping with the overall paddle stability while expanding the sweet spot.

  Raw Spin Technology Surface for Enhanced Spin.

  Our Raw Spin Technology is a raw, textured surface designed to enhance spin and improve ball control.

  Octagonal Handle for Better Control.

  The upgraded octagonal grip offers greater maneuverability and shot accuracy on the court.

Back in 2017, Selkirk introduced the first pickleball paddle to enable both power and control. The hybrid innovation, known as AMPED, quickly became a favorite among pickleball players nationwide who had previously had to choose between either a power paddle or a control paddle.

AMPED was the industry's first thick core innovation, coming in at 5/8” when all other paddles were 1/2” or less, and the first paddle to have power and control in one paddle. The original AMPED series delivered the power necessary to put away shots, alongside the control needed to dominate at the net, and, in doing so, forever changed the landscape of the sport.

In 2023, Selkirk Labs unveiled Project 005, a paddle that sought to combine what players love most about the VANGUARD Power Air and the Labs Project 003, delivering an iteration of what the future of a balanced power and control paddle could be, in an edgeless, open throat package. Following the launch of the 005, we took player feedback into great consideration and completely overhauled the paddle to improve it from all angles to deliver the AMPED Pro Air.

Fast forward to today: the AMPED Pro Air delivers a paddle that strikes a happy medium between power and control, giving players the familiar feel of an all-court paddle, while incorporating next-level technology to enhance power on groundstrokes, serves, and put-away volleys.

The next AMPED Pro Air is designed for those who refuse to compromise on their game.

Welcome to the next era of AMPED.

Selkirk’s bestselling pickleball paddle just got better. Tested in the lab, InfiniGrit is now making its Selkirk mainline debut.

Introducing the new and improved LUXX Control Air, now with InfiniGrit Surface Technology for 3x longer-lasting spin than raw carbon paddles. It’s the same ultimate control players know and love from the LUXX paddle, but with more spin, more power (without sacrificing control), and updated aerodynamic performance. 

Try the LUXX Control Air with InfiniGrit to experience a new way to control the game.

The LUXX Control Air quickly became a player favorite, utilizing the innovations of the LABS Project 003 to serve players looking for the ultimate control paddle. 

This paddle went against the grain in the pickleball industry, focusing on amplifying control and precision versus pure power. The reviews backed up our observation – the majority of players wanted help keeping the ball in bounds, placing it strategically to orchestrate wins instead of relying on brute force. The LUXX Control Air did exactly that.

At Selkirk, we’ve been ALL IN on pickleball for over a decade. That means we’re never complacent, so even though the LUXX Control Air is popular, we still wanted to find improvements.

One area of feedback from players about the previous version of the LUXX paddle was a desire for longer-lasting spin and a thought that “ultimate control” was at the expense of all power.

The LUXX Control Air with InfiniGrit takes the popularity of the player-friendly LUXX Control Air, but enhances it with additional spin durability and slightly more power.

The two main upgrades from the previous LUXX Control Air:

1. 3x longer-lasting spin: The InfiniGrit Surface has triple the durability of raw carbon paddles with enhanced spin potential, allowing players to achieve up to 2,000 RPMs for more precise shots. 

2. Ultimate control, but with more power: The 19mm X7 Thikset Honeycomb Core (1mm thinner than the prior version) and EVA foam in the throat and handle combine to produce additional power. Don’t worry, this additional power is not at the expense of any control.

Available in two paddle shapes.

Epic | Long Handle & Standard Paddle Shape: Pairing a traditional pickleball paddle shape with a large surface area and a long handle, the Epic delivers the perfect blend of power and control. Versatile and well-rounded, the Epic paddle shape is ideal for the beginner and the seasoned pro.

Invikta | Longer Handle & Longest Paddle Shape: Favored for its increased sweet spot size when compared to other elongated pickleball paddle shapes, the Invikta is popular with intermediate to pro players. With Invikta, you get the elongated shape, a large sweet spot, and an even longer handle that provides more power, more reach, and more spin.

Product Features

InfiniGrit Surface for 3x Spin Durability

The InfiniGrit Surface technology triples the durability of traditional embossed epoxy peel-ply texture raw carbon surfaces while significantly enhancing spin potential, allowing players to achieve up to 2,000 RPMs for more precise and controlled shots.

Product Features

T700-Grade Raw Carbon Fiber Face for Stiffness and Performance Versatility.

Adds velocity to hard hits so you can win with power, while still maintaining touch for softer shots.

Rev-Pro Polymer Honeycomb Core for a Dynamic Balance of Power and Control.

Designed to meet your game where you’re at — whether you need to accurately place a shot or finish with power. This polypropylene honeycomb core has a comfortable and forgiving feel to it.

MOI Tuning System for Maximum Sweet Spot and Balance, Right Out of the Box.

The MOI Tuning System is an overall design approach that includes a semi-permanent perimeter weighting solution that balances mass distribution with precision-engineered medallion weights on the edge guard. By putting the weight exactly where we want it — shifting mass toward the outer regions of the paddle and increasing the moment of inertia — it stabilizes the paddle during off-center hits. The result is clear: a larger and more forgiving sweet spot to help you get more balls over the net. The balanced weight distribution means your paddle won’t feel too top-heavy or too light — giving you better control and comfort during play.

*The MOI Tuning System is semi-permanent and comes pre-installed for optimal performance. Note: Removing could potentially cause damage to MOI parts.
