SixZero is one of our favorite paddle brands

A lot of brands that make my favorites list is because I play with a paddle that I end up loving. I am a big fan of the spin and control of the DBD 16. That was in my rotation for several months.

Selkirk is one of our favorite paddle brands

While priced higher than other brands like VaticPro & SixZero, I think Selkirk does more to help grow the sport than most other brands. When purchasing from Selkirk Labs, you're investing in the R&D of paddle technology. If money is of no issue, the 006 is a great paddle.
