Selkirk LABS Project 008 Invikta

The PureFoam core is designed to be more stable and resistant to deformation over time compared to traditional honeycomb structures. This results in a more consistent feel across the entire face of the paddle, even after extended use.

While the elongated shape offers excellent reach and power, it can be slightly less forgiving than a standard wide-body paddle. It is best suited for intermediate to advanced players who have developed consistent contact points and are looking to maximize their court coverage.

The octagonal shape provides distinct edges that help you feel the orientation of the paddle face in your hand. This tactile feedback makes it easier to switch grips quickly during fast-paced exchanges and improves overall maneuverability.

Yes, the raw carbon fiber texture is naturally abrasive, which helps grip the ball upon impact. This creates significantly more friction than a smooth or painted surface, allowing for more aggressive topspin and slice shots.

A 13mm core is generally thinner than the standard 16mm, which typically translates to a faster, more 'poppy' feel off the face. This makes it a great choice for players who prefer a responsive, power-oriented game over a purely control-based one.

Yes, the Selkirk LABS Project 008 Invikta is fully USAPA approved and legal for use in all sanctioned pickleball tournaments.
