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

Awesome Paddle
I’m a small woman and the texture on this paddle helps me get more spin and it’s also lightweight to keep me injury free as I m not very strong to handle heavier paddles

Amped X5 Invikta Review
I love this paddle. It is my third one over the years. Hope they never stop making it! Selkirk has been a great organization to work with when issues arise. It has more grit than before and improves my spin game.

**Selkirk AMPED - Invikta - Pickleball Paddle Review** Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) As an avid pickleball player, I've had the opportunity to test out a variety of paddles, but the Selkirk AMPED - Invikta has truly elevated my game. This paddle is designed for players who want the perfect balance between control, power, and spin, and it delivers on all fronts. **Control:** One of the standout features of the AMPED Invikta is its exceptional control. The elongated shape allows for a larger sweet spot, which gives me more confidence on every shot. Whether I’m executing a drop shot or a fast-paced rally at the net, I feel incredibly precise with my placements. The paddle’s surface also provides a great feel for the ball, making it easy to manipulate shots with finesse. **Power:** When it comes to power, the Invikta does not disappoint. The paddle's unique design allows for substantial force behind smashes and drives. I’ve noticed an increase in my ability to hit deep, powerful shots that put pressure on my opponents. It feels as though the paddle gives me just the right amount of pop without sacrificing control. **Spin:** The AMPED Invikta excels at generating spin, which is crucial for adding variety to my game. The texture of the paddle surface allows me to put a lot of topspin or slice on the ball when needed, making it particularly effective during serves and volleys. I’ve found that my opponents struggle to read and respond to my shots, giving me an edge during competitive play. **Overall Impression:** The Selkirk AMPED - Invikta is a fantastic paddle that combines cutting-edge technology with performance enhancements. It’s lightweight yet sturdy, and the design feels comfortable in my hand during long matches. Whether you're a recreational player or a serious competitor, this paddle will enhance your game significantly. In summary, if you are looking for a paddle that offers great control, power, and spin, the Selkirk AMPED - Invikta is an investment worth making. It has quickly become my go-to paddle, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to up their pickleball game!

Great Paddle
I really like this paddle. The lighter weight and smaller grip circumference really make it easier to control and direct my shots. It is somewhat lacking in power, but with some getting used to, the power is more than enough. I am very happy with the purchase of the Selkirk Amped-Invikta Paddle.

Great Spin, No Power
This paddle is as advertised to the extreme. There's a ton of spin and control, but zero power! To the point where I have to use my old paddle to serve and then switch back to this paddle for play.
