What began as a hobby for Chris Dickert and John Petty quickly evolved into a passion for pickleball, leading them to develop their first paddle and forge connections across the US and internationally. Committed to growing the sport's future, they plan to introduce Junior paddles for children aged 4-10 and emphasize the importance of mental health through their blog, "The Reset." By advocating for mental health awareness and supporting the pickleball community, they aim to give back to the sport that has become an essential outlet for coping with life's challenges.

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.
