Selkirk SLK Omega XL Carbon and Fiberglass Paddle

The SLK Omega XL Pickleball Paddle is the elongated and more power-oriented sibling to the immensely successful SLK Omega Max. What sets the Omega line apart from other paddles is the unique dual-material surface; a layer of performance fiberglass sandwiched together with a layer of GC9-Flex carbon to attain an impressive balance of deep power and kitchen-line control. This elongated form boasts a 5.75" handle length that helps you reach dinks, and hit harder serves and drives. A large 10.65" by 7.4" hitting surface, with its rough texture creating great spin, is the preferred shape of many of today's high-level players. These features and materials combine to feel good in the hands of players, perhaps those specifically with a tennis background, who enjoy the feeling of overpowering their opponents.

With all of the power packed into the 7.9-ounce SLK Omega XL Pickleball Paddle you may be concerned about being able to control it. The textured surface mentioned above is a great start, but the 13mm (0.51") thick Rev-Core Polymer Honeycomb core really brings the control. The thickness balances power, cushion, and feel, while the Rev-Core+ technology broadens the sweet spot nearly completely from side to side of the edgeless design. Furthermore, the Flexfoam injection around the edges of this paddle eases mishits while adding perimeter weight to reduce torquing in the hand, and improve edge durability.

The SLK Omega XL Paddle from Selkirk Pickleball offers a distinctly powerful feel that is backed up by a surprisingly expansive sweet spot and elongated handle. This combination of features thrives in the hands of ex-tennis players and pickleballers who play a lot singles, hit two-handed backhands, and enjoy ending rallies with clean winners.

Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8".
