Selkirk Labs
008 Epic 13mm
Widebody13mmGen 4
The Selkirk Labs 008 Epic 13mm is a 13 mm widebody pickleball paddle. It generates low spin (26th percentile) with low power and pop. It has a light, maneuverable swing weight built for quick hands at the net, but low twist weight, so off-center hits lose more pace. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
