    Power, power, power!

    This is by far the best power paddle I’ve used. It’s lightweight and the ball will “pop” when returning, drives, and even resets. This is a fantastic paddle once you adjust to the power. Add a little more weight to the handle and this becomes one of the best all around paddles to use.

    an easy transition from the lux

    I didn't know this paddle existed and bought the lux about 4 weeks before. the catalog that came with it provided the wide range of Paddles Selkirk offers and their specific distinctions. I need more power without swinging harder (shoulder irritation) and this seems to fit the bill nicely. it has taken a short bit to get used to the new touch, but it is happening quickly (moving on to the 4th usage tomorrow. I will say, I like the handle on the lux a little better.

    Light

    The paddle is lighter than what I expected and lighter than I'm accustomed to.

    Not sure I'm experiencing the added power that was expected.
