Description
Selkirk LABS Project 008 Invikta 13 mm Pickleball Paddle
Selkirk's upcoming LABS Project 008 paddle—traditionally only available through direct-to-consumer channels in Selkirk LABS Research & Development program—will now be offered available via a select authorized retail partners like IambeachTennis.com.
The 13mm Selkirk LABS Project 008 is designed for pickleball players seeking a hybrid+ paddle that blends power and control with long-lasting durability. Its high-density PureFoam core holds its form longer than polypropylene based on standard impact tests, offering consistent performance over time while setting a new standard for pickleball paddles.
Optimized for players with dynamic playstyles, the 13mm core creates a large sweet spot for added consistency and power, while retaining enough control to place shots with precision. The paddle's hybrid+ design makes it ideal for players who prefer a dynamic attacking approach.
Discover the new high-density PureFoam core, designed for unmatched paddle durability, resisting crushing and deformation better then traditional polypropylene cores.
Future iterations of the Project 008 (including the 10mm 16mm) will be announced soon!
Favored for its increased sweet spot size when compared to other elongated pickleball paddle shapes, the Invikta is popular with intermediate to Pro players. With Invikta, you get the elongated shape, a large sweet spot, and an even longer handle that provides more power, more reach, and more spin.
