Summary
The Selkirk Amped Pro Air Epic is a standard-shaped paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, a material known for balancing power and control. The face features a spray-on grit surface. Weighing 8 ounces, it falls into the midweight category. The 5.25-inch grip may be less suitable for players preferring longer grips for two-handed backhands. With a swing weight of 111, it is considered relatively low, potentially offering maneuverability. The paddle's twist weight of 6.70333 suggests good stability on off-center hits. The manufacturer's data suggests above-average spin (2010 RPM) and drive speed (54.6 MPH), with slightly above average volley speed (35 MPH). These characteristics might make it suitable for intermediate to advanced all-court players seeking a blend of power, control, and spin. The lighter weight could benefit players prioritizing quick reactions. However, players seeking maximum power might find other paddles more suitable.
