Selkirk
Reviewers overwhelmingly praise the Selkirk Luxx Control Air InfiniGrit for its exceptional control, spin generation, and improved durability of the grit surface compared to previous versions. Most players appreciate the balance of control with adequate power, though some note it lacks the power of dedicated power paddles and a few mention concerns about sweet spot size or grip tape durability. The paddle is consistently described as a significant upgrade that improves players' games, particularly for placement, spin serves, and net play.

Magic Wand: This paddle is AMAZING. I’ve had 2 other Pickleball friends but one after seeing me play with it. The spin and control and power I get with this thing are AMAZING! Some players even started calling it my magic wand.

Trouble dinking: Love the paddle for power and control. Having trouble finding the "soft spot" for dinking. I have found the infinigrit to be helpful.

Dissapontedwith vanguard infinigrit: I didn’t like the feel and it had a dead spot on the top part of paddle. I returned it and I am waiting for my return. I also wasn’t happy that within a few days of buying the paddle,it went on sale for 200. Once I receive my return I likely purchase the same paddle I have now.—-amped control pro air invitation

My Favorite: Selkirk knocked it out of the park with this paddle. I didn't think Selkirk could improve on the LUXX, but they did. Same great control with more spin. Can't wait to see just how long this paddle will last. My old LUXX is still playable, so I'm very optimistic.

Great control paddle.: Love the feel of these Luxx Control Air paddles. This is my second one, and the new InfiniGrit surface adds even more spin to my groundstrokes. Have decided to stick with Selkirk for all my pickleball needs.

Not a Labs Project 003: I purchased this paddle with the assumption it would perform like my Selkirk Labs Project 003 (its predecessor). My style of play comes from my tennis background and the 003 performed perfectly. My grit has worn off significantly and I was needing a replacement. I purchased the Luxx Control Air with InfiniGrit and it plays more like a power paddle. Yes I get the spin I need, but most of my shots go much longer than with my previous paddle. My rating is based off t

Very good paddle, Selkirk LUXX InfiniGrit - Invikt: The best paddle I tried so far. At 7.9 oz the paddle feels light headed. I need to add 0.1-0.2 oz weight to front of paddle face. Still testing the great paddle. Very happy with this product.

My favorite padfle: I’ve played with LUXX Control Air Infinigrit now for about 20 hours. All on indoor basketball court surfaces. I am getting pretty good at trusting the paddle and myself to tag the baseline corners. I can’t wait to get back to Florida and break out my ball machine to really put this paddle to the test… the only thing I struggle with is the hole in the paddle. I hit a fair number of balls with that part of my paddle, so that is an adjustment for me.

LUXX = control !: Best control paddle on the market! InfiniGrit is amazing for control . Dinking has never been easier . If you want more pop go with the Boomstick . If you want InfiniGrit and control go LUXX.

Like the infinigrit, Miss the 20mm core: Good paddle, less control than original version, I love the new infinigrit, but although it sounds silly when I say it, I think the 1 mm less of thickness (when compared with original luxx control invikta) makes a difference on the control and ball hit absorption on the sweet spot .. when playing with bangers with original .. the ball will stay inbound when hitting right behind the NVZ line, but with the new luxx control that is 19mm thick .. the ball wil

Not sure about this paddle: It seems well made, however the handle grip tape is already peeling up at the bottom of the handle. I've only played with it 2 or 3 times. I'm also a little disappointed in the lack of power. I'm gonna give it a few more games and then I may return it for something else

The Best Paddle!: I have Selkirk control air paddle for 1,5 year now and its still plays great! I have tried other paddles ,but this paddle work the best for me . I had to try Selkirk Control Air with InfiniGrit and was amazed at its performance. It makes spin on its oven without me even trying , I had more control and power with this paddle. After watching me play with it many people wanted to try it. Its amazing how a good paddle can change your game .This paddle absolutely worth its price!

Luxx control, purple: Love my new paddle. Been playing with it for about 3 weeks now, the control is amazing. I've added weights to give it a little more power and it's perfect. Love the purple color too! I don't spin the ball a lot but since having this paddle I have learnt the spin serve and it doesn't disappoint

LUXX Control Invikta with InfiniGrit: I love the paddle. I played with the LUXX Control Epic for a long time. I decided to switch to LUXX Control Invikta with InfiniGrit thinking I could get a little more power and much more spin. I was right. Perfect paddle to graduate to. I’m 70 years old and played tennis in my younger years. This paddle gives me the control and power I need.
