The Selkirk Labs Project 005 Epic is a standard-shaped paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, a spray-on grit surface, and a weight of 7.9 oz. The 16mm core thickness is often associated with control-oriented paddles. Polypropylene honeycomb cores generally offer a balance of power and control. The standard shape is the most common paddle shape and is generally considered versatile. This paddle's weight falls into the midweight category, balancing maneuverability and power. It has a 4.65-inch grip length. The swing weight is 109, considered low, which may make it easier to maneuver. The twist weight is 6.775, and its twist weight rating is 6.1 out of 10, suggesting good stability on off-center hits. The spin rating is 4.8 out of 10. This paddle might be suitable for players of all levels seeking a balance of control and maneuverability. The combination of core material, core thickness, and weight could provide a blend of power and control. However, players seeking maximum power or spin might find its ratings in these categories comparatively lower.
