My wife enjoys this paddle more than her previous paddle: I was looking to upgrade my paddle and asked the wife if she wanted something different. She described length and control; this paddle fits those criteria to a tee. She picked up a little more pace on her ball and manages the kitchen better with less pop ups. I have to work a little harder than before and have threatened to send it back (just kidding). I got the Halo Pro, but I would have been just as happy with this on as they play very

Very Reliable Paddle: Very comfortable and easy paddle to use. The longer hand gives a bit more reach. I also LOVE the color, I know that it might not make me play any better but it makes me happy!

Need more time to assess: Currently, the paddle is working great. It's very lightweight but it seems to handle hard driven balls firmly. I bought the pink one. Am now thinking it might be easier to target. ha! I also purchased the longer handle since my old paddle was also 1" longer. I need a little more time with consistent games to probably appreciate its performance.

SLK Halo: I love the paddle! The longer grip feels great and being lighter weight, helps my elbow from becoming sore. The control helps when I’m trying to slow down the game. Thank you for making a great paddle in my favorite color!

Overall Great Paddle: The SLK Halo Control Paddle and I are becoming one. Control is outstanding. Spin is great for shots and serving. The paddle has good power enough to close out a point. Overall, an amazing paddle for anyone.

Great Control Paddle: I am very pleased with the control from this paddle. If you are looking for a power paddle, look at the Halo Power. The carbon face allows for greater spin and control. This fits my game well as I am trying to work on my soft game.

Love this paddle: This is a more responsive paddle than my previous one. In fact, I have to dial down some shots! Even though I'm not a 2-handed back-hander, I like the longer handle as I feel it gives more "oomph" to a shot.

Secret Weapon!: Wow, this paddle is a game-changer for precision. It’s like having a secret weapon for placing shots exactly where you want them. If you’re all about control and finesse, the Halo Control is a must-try. It’s perfect for those who love to get every shot just right!

Best paddle for the money.: I loved the original halo! However I find the new 18k weave face to be more consistent. Drives and drops have never been better! Handle/ grip is a little different from the original, but not by much. I would absolutely recommend this paddle to first timers Up to pros.

Nice looking paddle: I purchased the paddle due to wanting a paddle to help with control. My only issue after playing with it for 3 weeks is the material on the handle is already showing wear????? I don’t know if this paddle uses quality material but I do enjoy the control.

This has an elongated handle instead of a longer paddle surface/: I was looking for an elongated paddle, not handle. Even the paddle surface was smaller than the one I have now. This paddle had a punch, but I was missing someshots I would normally get. ***PBC Response*** Thanks for taking the time to leave a review!

Selkirk SLK Halo XL: I bought this for my wife who wanted control and a longer handle. She does not like the usual size of the end cap on most paddles including this one. The extra length helps her two handed backhands. She has more control with this paddle.

Halo XL control: Really like the paddle. The longer handle is great. Also like how it seems to be weighted more on the top. I am also able to create more spin than I can with my Amped S2.

Loving This Paddle: It took me a few games to get used to this paddle as my previous paddle had a very short handle and was lighter. But now that I have adjusted I loved the longer handle for two-handed backhand shots. The ball pops nicely off the face and the carbon fiber face is helping with placement and spin. This paddle also has a slightly longer reach than my old Paddletek Bantam TS Pro which helps me reach out for those out of the way shots.

Great for intermediate players: Enjoy playing with this paddle, I get a lot of control and spin from the raw carbon face. Power is good but not overdone with decent control on shots. Seems to have a smaller sweet spot than my Engage leading to some dead hits. Will take some more time to find the best way to play with this one!

Excellent paddle! : If you're looking for a carbon fiber paddle, the SLK Halo is a great place to start! I honestly have more confidence in my shot placement with this paddle, and I do with a Joola Hyperion.
