Product Information
Product Description
Power and Control. The Amped series was engineered to amplify both aspects without compromising! It is the ultimate combination of power and control. The Amped series is pioneering an entirely new technology in the Pickleball industry with its FiberFlex Fiberglass face and patent pending thicker X5 polypropylene core. The revolutionary thicker paddle core provides an unparalleled degree of power and control along with many other performance benefits!
Product Features
Technology: X5 Polypropylene Polymer Core: a revolutionary thicker polypropylene polymer core that amplifies both the power and control of a paddle
FiberFlex Unidirectional Fiberglass Face: Redesigned face engineered to amplify performance
Unibody Design: unibody design melds the X5 Core and Fiberflex face together for optimum performance and increased durability.
Larger Sweet Spot: The combination of the X5 core and FiberFlex face creates the largest sweet spot of any of our paddles.
Vibration Dampening: A very noticeable attribute of the Amped paddle is its vibration dampening. In addition to giving the paddle a very solid feel, vibration dampening may help some players with their tennis elbow.
Torque Suppression: When a ball hits off center, it tends to cause the paddle to torque or twist, which reduces accuracy. The X5 core reduces this giving the paddle additional control, a more solid feel, and increased ability to block hard drives. These same principles also make the AMPED paddle the ideal choice for playing in the wind.
Quiet: The X5 Core and FiberFlex face are significantly quieter than our previous technologies.
Face Cushioning: The X5 Core and FiberFlex face combine to create a unique improved ability for Amped paddles to cushion the ball to stay on the face longer. This allows the player to manipulate the ball more effectively.
Impart More Spin: Because of the AMPED’s ability to cushion the ball, players can generate an unmatched amount of spin. This allows us to create the face that is not so rough you cannot diffuse an opponent’s spin.
Well Balanced: The Amped Paddle carries on Selkirk’s signature “it feels lighter than it is” reputation, by utilizing our unique weight distribution EdgeSentry edgeguard technology.
Epic: Keeping with the traditional paddle shape, the Epic combines a long handle with a large surface area. Epic
I love it! I needed a paddle that gives me stability & control & this paddle meets both.

Husband loves his new Selkirk paddle. Replaced 8 year old paddle. Thought it was good until he used his new Selkirk AMPED. Great control and extra length.

Found My Paddle
I have played with S2 paddles for about 6 years. Mostly control, but one power, all of them Vanguard. My original Vanguard S2 I really really liked: the short handle, weight 8.3, feel, control, etc., but it was showing a lot of wear even though I rotate through my 5 S2 paddles routinely. My newest Vanguards just did not have the right feel as my first one, but still very nice. So I tried the S2 in Amped. From day 1 this is MY paddle. The shorter handle and 7.9 wight may not be right for everyone, but the control is as good or better, the pop off the paddle is better consistently and the feel is just right for me. It helped me win gold this past week at the Senior Games. I have found MY paddle.

Great Paddle!
I've been playing pickleball for about six months and just upgraded to this paddle. I immediately noticed improvement in my play. I love the large sweet spot and lightness of the paddle. I have found I have better control with this paddle than I had before. Looking forward to playing more with it!!
I like the feel and control I get from the paddle. The lightweight still has plenty of power for me.

What A Difference!
I purchased a cheap pickleball set to see if I liked playing and if I would stick with it before investing in a better paddle. I love playing pickleball and felt it was time to upgrade, especially since I was having lower arm muscle pain. I noticed a huge difference the first time I used my new AMPED S2. It's so lightweight, but I have much better control than my first paddle. The reason I decided on the AMPED S2 was I read it was a great paddle for absorbing shock. I have noticed my arm pain lessening more and more all the time. I would highly recommend this paddle!
