Selkirk Omni Elongated w/MOI vs Selkirk SLK Dauntless Widebody

The Selkirk Omni Elongated w/MOI is a 16 mm elongated paddle; the Selkirk SLK Dauntless Widebody is a 16 mm widebody one. Across the 6 specs with a clearly better direction the Omni Elongated w/MOI takes 4 and the SLK Dauntless Widebody takes 2. The SLK Dauntless Widebody swings lighter (110.0 vs 122.0) — quicker hands at the net, where the Omni Elongated w/MOI plows through the ball instead. That is a preference, not a win. The SLK Dauntless Widebody is $120.00 cheaper at $180.00.

Two paddles from the same brand, so the differences are the ones the maker chose. Every number below is lab-measured, not a manufacturer claim.

Static weight 8.1 oz vs 7.9 oz — a few grams of tape moves swing weight far more than static weight, so either can be pushed toward the other.
