Founded by four former college tennis players who fell in love with pickleball, Oya aims to bridge the gap between tennis and pickleball by creating innovative paddles that enhance tennis players' strengths. Their paddles feature increased head speed, longer handles for two-handed backhands, and faster spin rates. Inspired by bold and aggressive play styles, Oya paddles stand out with distinctive shapes, expressive color schemes, and quality craftsmanship that can be felt in every shot.

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.
