This is absolutely wild. Two of the biggest paddles coming out are polar opposites - extreme power vs extreme control. And honestly, I can see a 50/50 split in popularity. People from high level tennis who are used to full swings, pickle pros, advanced pickle players will probably love the control paddle. The bangers, singles players, and people with less ability to generate power or people still learning their swing mechanics and are perfectly fine with shorter and smaller strokes will love power of a gearbox. As a former tennis player and someone who doesn’t put a whole lot in paddles, I kinda hope the other reviews aren’t like this because if so, I’m going to buy it! 😂😂
I only got to test out the gearbox for a few minutes, but i hit like 5 balls out on my flicks-- definitely polar opposites. It makes sense that Jack Sock, who has tons of power, simply wants a control paddle that helps him keeps balls in.
@@ZeroZeroVu actually, it would be VERY cool to see a comparison of these paddles. Like I don’t know what your skill level is, but to see difference would be fascinating. Like, how does power compare to someone who’s able to have full swing on a “soft” paddle, vs maybe more compact swings on a “extreme” power paddle…. Because just by initial thoughts, if I can get big power (by essentially using more effort for power) from a soft paddle AND have insane touch vs. maybe less effort for power and not as much control….what’s better for people? People with higher level games will be fine with a paddle they have to try harder with? Would be fascinating to see…I bet you would get a ton of clicks if you compare 😂
@@edjupickleball bingo. Everyone wants “power”, but just by watching your homie play with the Luxx, if someone has solid mechanics, you can always get power from a paddle. Conversely, it’s darn near impossible to get extreme touch and control from a power paddle….
Good review, I found about the samething. My take is that the closer you get to the net, the more the Luxx shines. At 72, I am not generating my own power to the paddle that may be needed.
May I ask, was the paddle you were holding at the end of the video, the epic version or the wider S2? Thank you for the in-depth video, I've been seeing more of these paddles on the court. I'm not a smashing player, I tend to play with control and create shots which I hope this paddle could help me even more.
Thanks for all the details on the Luxx. Looking into the S2 for the answer to slowing down my game style. Sweet spot size sounds like it will help me do what I want to accomplish. I use a "ping pong" grip, so the short handle makes me want to try it. Hoping for a demo session when I find a dealer/Rep near me.
Love the Luxx! Came from the Power Air, then Labs 005 and now this. But, now there is the AMPED Pro Air coming out tomorrow for Labs members . Need your review???
I’ve played with both and the 13s will have more pop it’s only 13mm and has the lightest swing weight of any thermoformed paddle. while the luxx has 8 more mm of material for the ball to sink into and favors placement over power and speed. 13s: fast and pop Luxx: slower and plush
Hey Davis looking to buy the luxx in the next weeks but also want the hesacore grip to try it out. I'm looking into buying the S2 version of the luxx, do you think the hesacore grip will fit the S2 version?
I have the invicta power air and tried the luxx control air. In my opinion, played with the Luxx for 10 minutes and was not impressed. Both paddles come with the same roughness technology. In my opinion they dialed back way too much on the Luxx. Power air has 2 problems, if you can't harness the power not good for you. Second, if you hit with the power air continuous, you can form tennis elbow due to vibration.
I think all around, it’s just better than the halo. More power and more control. Halo is very nice for the price point though. But yeah, I couldn’t see why I would choose a halo over the luxx
They’re very different paddles! Luxx is a thicker paddle, way lighter, with a completely different surface. Luxx is easier to maneuver and control. Labs 006 is more powerful and better spin. If you can handle the weight, the labs 006 is a weapon.
Mine should be coming soon- I plan to test that and the epic shape and review it! I don’t think they’re as popular due to the shorter handle. But if you use a ping pong grip or just prefer shorter handles they can feel better.
The one I’m showing in the video is Invikta. I’m getting my hands on epic and S2 soon so I’ll make another video about that. But I’m generally, the Invikta shape is more preferred because of the longer reach and handle length.
Thanks for the review. I ordered one a few days ago and am looking forward to comparing it with my Project 005 Invikta. Off-topic question: what brand and style of eyeglasses are you wearing when playing pickleball?

Come on really? How much bs tech do you need for a glorified oversized ping pong paddle? Graphite, carbon fiber, nano tech, pizzo electronic. This is all a joke. $$$$ Get in on it people, time to make some money 😂
Hey Ed, are you still using the Luxx? If so, are still really pleased with it? I'm about to buy one and enjoyed your review.

The name of the game in pickleball is short, compact strokes… contradicting yourself
I purchased both the Selkirk Luxx and Gearbox Pro Power. Can't wait to play with them!

It’s an awesome paddle!!! Love it. Played 4 hours yesterday!!!! The control is amazing.
yeah I have had it for 2 week's, love it! feel like an extension of my arm, but the power is weak, and I put a small tape to compensate
@@razrgu3838where did you place the tape and did it help with power?
Is there a way to preserve the grit on the luxx because I’m afraid it’s going to loose quickly especially paying such a premium
Bought a Joola Gen 3 and been using it the last week but it’s not the same as my Luxx, I miss it! Unsure on what to do 😩
You should return the Gen 3 because they have been banned in tournament play
This music is the perfect background for a relaxing bath, thank you.
May I ask, was the paddle you were holding at the end of the video, the epic version or the wider S2?

The LUXX is an incredible paddle!

How are you liking the last 3 weeks with the Luxx? Just Subscribed and liked! good review!
Love the Luxx! Came from the Power Air, then Labs 005 and now this. But, now there is the AMPED Pro Air coming out tomorrow for Labs members . Need your review???
How would you compare the luxx to the gruvn muvn 13s? I'm looking to get a control paddle, but having trouble deciding.
13s has more pop than the control air.
I’ve played with both and the 13s will have more pop it’s only 13mm and has the lightest swing weight of any thermoformed paddle. while the luxx has 8 more mm of material for the ball to sink into and favors placement over power and speed.
13s: fast and pop
Luxx: slower and plush
Esse canal merece muito mais inscritos! Vou recomendar para todos os meus amigos.
I was skeptical at first, but ZenCortex exceeded my expectations.
Hey Davis looking to buy the luxx in the next weeks but also want the hesacore grip to try it out. I'm looking into buying the S2 version of the luxx, do you think the hesacore grip will fit the S2 version?
Yup! It will fill the S2 or epic just fine!
How is this compared to Gearbox Pro Power, Control?
New Gearbox paddle is the future.
Lol not if the sole function is power…. That only gets you so far, homie….
How much weight did the edge guard tape add?

Thanks for the review. How do you compare the Luxx control air vs the halo XL control ? Try to see which one go buy next. Thank you
I think all around, it’s just better than the halo. More power and more control. Halo is very nice for the price point though. But yeah, I couldn’t see why I would choose a halo over the luxx
I’ve been waiting for this video lol
Do you suggest the medium or small hesacore grip for the luxx?
Depends on how thick you like your handle. I prefer thinner. But if you have big hands, go for medium
What hesacore would you recommend? I have a 003 Invikta and I’m trying to figure out which one to use.
I have the TOUR (S) on mine and it fits perfectly
How would you compare the LUXX vs the Vanguard 2.0
Between the Luxx and the 006 which one do you like better and why?
They’re very different paddles! Luxx is a thicker paddle, way lighter, with a completely different surface. Luxx is easier to maneuver and control.
Labs 006 is more powerful and better spin. If you can handle the weight, the labs 006 is a weapon.

Comparison to Collin Johns Scorpeus?

I think I'm liking the Gold version. What do you guys think?
Esse vídeo me ajudou muito a entender o assunto.
I was having doubts about the supplement, but your explanation was great, I'm going to buy my kit now!
I’m not seeing the video for the s1 review. Where is that?
That one will actually be released later in November
do you know of anyone who has reviewed the S2 version? everyone seems to only review this invikta shape?
Mine should be coming soon- I plan to test that and the epic shape and review it! I don’t think they’re as popular due to the shorter handle. But if you use a ping pong grip or just prefer shorter handles they can feel better.
anyone know what shoes mustache man is wearing?
Contiue nos inpirando a aprender cada vez mais.
Is this the control air invikta or epic model?
The one I’m showing in the video is Invikta. I’m getting my hands on epic and S2 soon so I’ll make another video about that. But I’m generally, the Invikta shape is more preferred because of the longer reach and handle length.
Helpful, thanks
I NEED this paddle ❤
It's legendary
I just got this paddle recently and I noticed there are so many chips on the sides edge. is anyone experiencing the same?
Yes I’ve seen them chop on face as well
Thanks for the review. I ordered one a few days ago and am looking forward to comparing it with my Project 005 Invikta. Off-topic question: what brand and style of eyeglasses are you wearing when playing pickleball?
I’m wearing warby parker’s prescription glasses!
