Which paddle should you buy?

Pick the Selkirk Project 006 if…

  • You want faster hands — lower SW (118.49 vs 121.52) means quicker maneuvering at the kitchen.
  • You prefer the hybrid shape — different feel/reach/sweet-spot profile from the elongated.

Pick the Selkirk Tesla if…

  • You want more power — SW 121.52 is 3.03 points higher.
  • You want a bigger sweet spot — TW 6.06 is more forgiving on off-center hits.
  • Your game leans power — this is tuned for that style.
  • You prefer the elongated shape — different feel/reach/sweet-spot profile from the hybrid.
