Balancing power and control is a tricky proposition, and Selkirk uses top-of-the-line materials with an elongated shape in the Selkirk SLK Evo Hybrid XL 2.0 Pickleball Paddle to do a surprisingly good job. The 10.65" long by 7.4" wide C7-Flex Hybrid Fiberglass face responds to contact with the ball by returning tons of energy for powerful drives, and adding spin when you use the proper technique. The power of this paddle is further boosted by the long 5.75" long handle that gives you the leverage to create ample swing speed and punish your opponents' high dinks near the net.
While the powerful attributes of the SLK Evo Hybrid XL 2.0 will help you make highlight reel plays, it is the control provided by the 13mm Rev-Hybrid Polymer Core and midweight 7.8-ounce design that will allow you to stay in matches by winning hard-earned points. The 13mm (0.51") thickness situates this paddle at the more powerful end of the spectrum, while the polymer construction creates a wide sweet spot to help you keep miss-hits in play to extend rallies.
The SLK Evo Hybrid XL 2.0 Paddle from Selkirk Pickleball offers a large sweet spot, long handle, and fibreglass hitting surface to balance power and feel for players of various skill levels.
