🔬Detailed Technologies

• PROSPIN+™ Micro-Texture Surface: Advanced surface treatment designed to grab the ball longer for superior topspin, underspin, and slice. This texture is engineered for durability and consistent RPMs.
• FORCEFLEX+™ Dual-Stage Polymer Core: Multi-layer polymer core engineered to deliver soft feel on touch shots while storing and releasing energy during fast drives and counterattacks.
• FLEXFOAM™ Perimeter: Edge-injected foam technology that enhances paddle stability, reduces vibration, and enlarges the effective hitting zone.
• X RIBS™ Internal Structure: Strategic internal ribbing reinforces paddle structure, reducing flex during high-impact hits and maintaining responsiveness.
• LABS Tuned™ Engineering: Exclusively developed and refined by Selkirk Labs, this paddle is the product of feedback from elite players, lab simulations, and real-match performance data.

📝Summary

The Selkirk Labs Project 008 16mm is a game-changer for players who prioritize control, spin, and responsiveness. From its PROSPIN+ surface to its FORCEFLEX+ core and innovative FLEXFOAM edge system, every element of the paddle is designed with high-performance play in mind. Whether you’re attacking from the baseline or controlling tempo at the net, the 008 delivers elite-level confidence and precision.
