Summary

The SLK by Selkirk Halo Control XL is an elongated paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. The 7.9 oz weight and 114 swing weight (47th percentile) suggest a midweight feel, while the 5.75-inch grip length accommodates two-handed backhands. The 16mm core thickness, combined with the carbon fiber face, may provide a balance of power and control. The elongated shape could offer a larger sweet spot. The twist weight of 5.44 (7th percentile) is relatively low. This paddle may be suitable for intermediate to advanced players seeking control and touch. The lower twist weight might make the paddle slightly less stable on off-center hits, while the midweight range could offer sufficient power for most players.
