Summary

The Selkirk Amped Invikta is an elongated paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a fiberglass face. This combination may offer a balance of power and control. Weighing 8 ounces with a low swing weight of 108, the Invikta should be maneuverable. The 5.25-inch grip may be less suitable for players who prefer two-handed backhands. The 16mm core thickness contributes to control-oriented play. The fiberglass face is generally associated with a larger sweet spot. The elongated shape could offer greater reach. The Invikta's lower swing weight (21st percentile) might appeal to players seeking a lighter paddle, while its twist weight of 5.94 (31st percentile) suggests moderate torsional stability. The spin rating is 3.5/10 (13th percentile). This paddle might be suitable for beginner to intermediate players looking for a balance of control and maneuverability. A potential weakness could be less power compared to heavier paddles.
