The next evolution is here: Selkirk LABS Project 008 13mm.

This is Selkirks introduction of the high-density PureFoam core paddle technology, available in a hybrid 13mm thickness. The LABS 008 pickleball paddle attacks the concept of paddle durability and responsiveness from its core, delivering a new evolution that will change the future of pickleball paddles.

Dampens vibration. Flexes to increase dwell time. Increased spin. Balanced pop. Forgiving sweet spot. No core crushing.

A CORE BREAKTHROUGH:Groundbreaking paddle core technology.

You never get complacent, andneither do we. So we werent satisfied with pickleballs status quo of polypropylene-core paddles. Over time, these polypropylene cores get crushed and deformed affecting the paddles responsiveness and making even the most routine shots unpredictable. What does that mean? You have to replace your paddle more often.

The solution: a completely new PureFoam core technology, made from high-density foam that resists crushing and deformation increasing durability while reducing how often you need to replace your paddle.

Aside from durability improvements, the PureFoam core also enhances the paddles performance through an enlarged sweet spot and a less stiff feel than that of polypropylene cores. High-density foam dampens vibration and gives the paddle more responsiveness flexing to increase the dwell time while creating spin and ensuring consistency throughout the paddle face. This added control is not at the expense of power PureFoams high-density property creates lasting power.

Its the future of paddle cores, and LABS members get it first with Project 008.

The 10mm or 13mm or 16mm thickness serves the versatile yet aggressive player with hybrid all-court performance. AT700 Raw Carbon Fiber Faceallows for precise control and spin. TheThermoformed Construction with Additional Foam Wallsurrounds the perimeter, enhancing the paddles responsiveness and durability while expanding the sweet spot to give you extra forgiveness.
