Selkirk's big acquisition + it's time to vote!

The addition of Bread & Butter enables Selkirk to reach a broader and increasingly diverse base of pickleball players. In 2020, Selkirk launched the SLK by Selkirk line, a performance-driven brand dedicated to making the sport more accessible to players of all levels. 

With the inclusion of Bread & Butter, Selkirk expands its portfolio with a differentiated brand that speaks to a distinct consumer segment. The acquisition also enhances both companies' platform of services as they scale internationally.  

InfiniGrit® pioneered durable grit in pickleball. It outlasts traditional raw carbon by at least 3x, saving you the hassle and cost of replacing worn-out paddles. But the benefits of InfiniGrit go beyond your wallet — it's the only USAP-approved durable grit. If you want to play in top tournaments with spin that lasts, there's only one choice.

Dauntless is built for players who’ve outgrown the Geo or Valkyrie and are ready for more competitive play. Designed with next-gen PureFoam™ performance, it delivers the feel and control you need to level up. Want to check out the paddle you’ve been eyeing before you buy?

Pickleball’s popularity has exploded, bringing more brands and more paddle options into the spotlight. This year, Selkirk has four paddles in the running: the LABS Project Boomstik, SLK ERA Power, Sport Vanguard Power Air, and SLK Evo Power 2.0. Nominated by an expert panel as some of the best paddles in the U.S., these contenders stand out for their performance technology, comfort, power, spin, and overall feel. Vote once per day until voting ends Monday, June 1, at noon ET. The 10 winners will be announced Wednesday, June 10.
