Best paddle I have owned so far — Pros: -Almost effortless power; drives, rolls, and flicks come easy
-Unmatched level of spin generation; when other players feel the face of this paddle, some have asked "is this legal in competition" because it quite literally feels like sandpaper
-Relatively easy to control on resets and dinks ONCE YOU GET USED TO IT
-Amazing sound! — Cons: really need to learn how to dial back the power to wield this beast! It took me ~1 month (maybe 30 hours of drill and play time) to learn what grip pressure I needed to use to get controlled resets and more subdued dinks that would land in the kitchen. This is not so much a negative, but it is worth pointing out that you need to commit to learning how to use this paddle. I was coming from a JOOLA Perseus Pro IV 14mm and these two paddles are night and day. For a while I was switching back and forth and that just led to bad things happening!
BOOOM!!!! Best paddle: I’ve been using the Selkirk Boomstik Paddle and really like how it balances power and control, especially when driving the ball but still keeping touch at the net. It feels responsive in my hands, which helps me reset quickly and place shots more consistently. Overall, this my main paddle for the past 6 months.
That’s why I purchase the full set of boomstik: So far I can’t find another paddle to replace it, cool, but plz consider for overseas warranty, thanks!
Standout control panel: Unreal I love this paddle. It gives me great control up at the net and the infiagrip allows me to generate plenty of top spin and hit the ball hard from the baseline.
Love the Boomstik: It took a few games to get used to the difference from the ERA Power I was using. Once I slowed down, and took a little bit off my swings, things kinda fell into place. So far, it is my favorite paddle.
Tennis Ball to Pickle Ball: This paddle doesn't take long to get use too. It has great power and wonderful touch, with spin and control what else would you need except coordination. Coming from tennis with a 4.5 5.0 rating this paddle has great response and touch that I was hoping for. Go For it !!!
Power, Power, Power, and Spin: This is a very powerful paddle. It takes some getting use to. Worth the investment.
Boom: Best paddle ever awesome power with great feel plays in every aspect indoors and outdoors
Boomstick: I'm a 4.0 player and love the extra pop and spin. Been playing with the paddle for about four months
and the paddle has retained its gritty surface. Finally the warranty is a big plus
Best paddle I’ve owned so far.: Nice pop off paddle. Have an amazing spin but need time to adjust for speed off the face.
BOOM: Love the power and control of this paddle. It took me couple of weeks to figure out the power but once I did it’s WOW. I also like the sound of the ball hitting the paddle. I know some people doesn’t like that noise but I do.
Very nice !: I love this paddle . The power & spin achieved is awesome. Very satisfied !!!
Simply the best paddle!: The paddle is light to the feel and very powerful! Love it!
Get that boom boom boom: This is my 2nd boomstik. I had to get the Jack Sock edition. It’s like no other and when getting something new, you have to adjust! The pop is like no other along with the sound! Gotta get that Boom!
Boomstick Paddle: This is a great paddle I am a 3.5 player and my shots, dinks and placement of the ball are much more accurate
Great paddle, but too much pop: Great paddle, but didnt have enough touch/feel for me
Selkirk Boomstick: I regularly play as a hard hitter and this paddle actually provided me with too much power, then losing feel (for me) when playing the short/soft game. I am finding myself going back to my prior paddle more and more...Selkirk Luxx Control Air
Best Paddle Ever - Controlled Power and Deel: Best Paddle Ever. Good controlled power and excellent feel off the paddle for finesse shots. Great spin capability. Never looking back!
Boomstik: I've tried them all and I really have. The boomstik is the paddle that brings my game to another level. I'm 3.5 player and to return the ball or scoop up on low shot happens with little effort. It just comes off the face with great pace. Like I said I tried them all and I bought 2 of these so I could have them for a while.
Happy with the Boom Stick: The Sellkirk service was informative and very quick. It was easy to pay for, and I received the the paddle and accessories within 4 days I was amazed because this was December before Christmas. The quality of the paddle seems very durable, and as it comes from the factory, I love how balanced the paddle is and lightweight.
Great Paddle: Gift for my husband. He said it makes him a better player. Lol. DSG customer service was helpful when I ran into an issue with the product.
boom stick paddle fantastic. I love it.: great!!!! I would definitely recommend the paddle unbelievable
Amazing, great control and spin.: This is the ultimate paddle I have been waiting for. I had another top level paddle that got banned and nothing has lived up to how it felt until the Boomstick. It is very powerful, poppy (which I like) and has surprising control. The surface is super gritty and I can spin a ton if I want to.
Paddle review: Perfect paddle. Power w/ unbelievable control and spin
Perfect for singles play: Great paddle for both singles and doubles but def my goto for singles.
Game changer: Was skeptical that a paddle could truly change my game but, frankly, I Emma 65-year-old 3.5 player and have a weak backhand and punch shot ... the boomstick truly change my game. My wife bought one first and when I saw how it impacted her game I demoed one and bought it!
Excellent pwoer control paddle: Love the balance between power and control specifically the larger sweet spot. Very happy with it.
My best paddle ever: Great control and reset easier. Greater spin of the ball making topspin so powerful
Boomstick: Top level paddle with excellent spin, control, and level power and pop
king of pickleball paddles!: with the elongated + boomstick wow! it improves my overall skill in pickleball the drives, dink and serve. The best paddle i ever had, i got other paddles crbn trufoam it extremely outmatch by this paddle. Boomstick the only paddle you need.
Stop Dinking, Start Slamming: A Review of the Boom: I've been playing with the Boomstik paddle for a few weeks now, and it's completely changed my game at the net. The first thing I noticed was the unique elongated handle and shorter face, which felt a bit strange at first. But once I adjusted my grip, I discovered an incredible level of leverage. My punch volleys now have devastating pop, and I can put away slams with an authority I never had before. While I sometimes miss a bit of touch on my
Boomstick: Haven’t had tons of play time yet but really enjoying the control and spin I get with this paddle.
The Boomstick rocks: Love this paddle The Boomstick
Love the control & the power
My New Favorite Paddle!: I stared out with Selkirk, then tried a few other paddles, and recenlty found my way back to Selkirk. The Boomstick is impressive, good looking and makes every shot feel clean and powerful. The paddle feels balanced and the grip is nice. Highly recommend to anyone looking to up their play.
Fun: The best power paddle on the market right now. Large sweet spot, great spin and good control.
Boomstick wins: Great paddle and quality game changer. Takes a bit to get used to but worth it
Boomstik paddle: I love my new Boomstik paddle.
It has the perfect mix between power and control.
My game has improved remarkable since I started playing with it.
Finally getting power.: I am a player with control play but lacking power. The Boomstik has given me power without taking away the control. It also has made it much easier to add spin to my shots.
Good control, excellent power and spin: My second Boomstik. Been playing with these for several weeks and aside from the edge guard glue issue on the first one (which Selkirk quickly replaced), these are now my go-to paddles.
Highly recommended: This paddle is amazing, you can really hear and feel the boom. Although you need to get use to its strong force. It may be pricey but its worth it. You will improve your game and you will feel it.
I want to have the skills to match my paddle.: Looking at the red logo through a magnifying glass, it seems they've smoothed out the paddle surface. That's a bit disappointing.
50/50: It's great for controlled drives but it has a lot of pop. hard to control the ball or do top spins. you can aim but mostly it goes out due to the poppy feel. also the red paint scrapes off easily. i just got mine for 3 weeks and the red has patches missing already. maybe the regal would be better.
Boomstikbis simply the best!: Powerful,nice sweet spot,wonderful sound,light and feel great while playing it
Power and control: Amazed by the power and feel of the paddle which allows for a more compact swing without a big backswing to get great results in placement and control for both the hard and soft game.
Best Paddle of 2025: The best paddle of 2025! Worth the steep price! The paddle is 8.0-8.2 oz only. So if you like lighter paddles this is not for you. The power is insane! Just buy it!
Here comes the… BOOM!: Great combination of large sweet spot, power and spin!
Pro IV vs Boomstick: Bought me a Pro IV a few months ago and really liked it. Then I bought the Boomstick to get a foam core paddle and WOW what a difference. I Love everything about the Boomstick. Lighter to the touch, way more pop off the Boomstick and I also find I have better spin and control. If a paddle can improve your play...Then this paddle has what it takes.
DA BOOM!: I LOVE MY BOOMSTICK!! Helps me with my game! I am so excited to use it every time I play!
It’s worth the BOOM!: LOVE this paddle! Has so much pop and the spin you can put on the ball is amazing!
Great paddle: Great paddle. The entire face feels like the sweet spot. Improves my top spin drives.
