Today’s game is faster, more aggressive, and often driven by players who dominate the court with blistering drives, spin-loaded shots, and relentless pressure.
But to match that intensity, your paddle needs to do more than keep up — it needs to amplify your game.
Enter the SLK ERA Power by Selkirk — a bold new paddle engineered to deliver serious power, spin, and forgiveness in one dynamic package. Whether you’re a seasoned tournament competitor or a fierce rec play regular, this paddle is built to fuel your most explosive performances.
Why the SLK ERA Power stands out
Unlike many traditional power paddles, which sacrifice forgiveness and control in pursuit of raw strength, the SLK ERA Power is a complete rethink of what a power paddle should be.
It's designed around the idea that performance shouldn’t be one-dimensional, and power shouldn’t come at the cost of feel.
Key technologies that power your game
The ERA Power introduces several new technology advantages, including:
Dynamic Fusion Core: Stability meets explosive power
The proprietary Dynamic Fusion Core construction gives the SLK ERA Power its signature feel — solid on contact, powerful on attacks, and forgiving on off-center hits.
The EVA foam perimeter and edge reinforcements distribute mass to where you need it most, increasing twist weight and enhancing paddle stability, so even mis-hits feel controlled and impactful.
3-Layered Face: Maximum spin and dwell time
Spin wins games, and the SLK ERA Power delivers. Its 3-layered face — a unique blend of fiberglass and T700 Raw Carbon Fiber — increases ball dwell time and grip, allowing you to shape shots with spin and control like never before.
Raw spin technology surface
With Selkirk’s raw spin technology, the paddle’s surface is textured to enhance spin potential. Combined with the layered face, this tech gives you the tools to keep your opponents guessing — whether you’re slicing from the baseline or dinking at the net.
Reinforced edge technology
Durability matters, especially in high-performance play. Reinforced edge technology protects your paddle from wear and tear while also reducing torsion, further boosting paddle stability and sweet spot consistency.
Octagonal handle for precise control
The SLK ERA Power features an octagonal grip that enhances hand control and shot accuracy. Whether you’re executing two-handed backhands or quick transitions at the kitchen line, this handle shape offers responsive feel and reliable command.
New paddle shapes designed for modern play
With the ERA Power, Selkirk also introduced two new paddle shapes to better support today’s dynamic players:
Widebody Shape
With a broader face and a 5.6” long handle, the Widebody offers supreme forgiveness and stability. Ideal for players who prioritize a large sweet spot and use two-handed backhands, this shape provides a consistent feel across the paddle face for confident play at every level.
Elongated Shape
Designed for reach, torque, and power, the Elongated shape features a 5.8” handle and extended paddle length to help you generate deeper plow-through and reach tricky balls with ease. Perfect for singles players and aggressive baseliners who want every inch of advantage.
