Selkirk Boomstick. High power paddle designed to maximize ball speed and spin... and it does exactly that. Great for driving the ball and winning hand battles. Has a 5.8" handle and elongated total length of 16.5" This was my 'step up' paddle to 4.0+; used for rec play only to master playing with it, but personally I have a problem controlling the "pop" on dinks and resets. I have had this paddle for 5 months and played with it a total of 12 times. It is well cared for. No paddle cover. I did remove the original paddle handle wrap and installed a Hesacore Pickleball Tour Grip-Regular Soft Feel and then wrapped it with Solinco Heaven Grip. Paddle plays well, large sweet spot. I transitioned to a CRBN TF Genesis paddle; no longer using this Boomstick.
