The LUXX Control Air Series- Where Control Reigns Supreme
For the past several years, the central focus in the pickleball industry has been developing power paddles, leaving the control paddle sector massively under served. Selkirk recognizes the majority of pickleball players are actually looking for the ultimate control paddle and has spent countless hours researching, developing, and testing control paddles in order to give the community what they are looking for.
The result is the LUXX Control Air—the ultimate control paddle for balanced pickleball players and the answer to the neglected needs of all those who favor finesse over brute force.
