I’m intrigued but since they’re kind of expensive I’d be seriously bummed if their performance degraded noticeably after a few months. I’m no Jack Sock so I wouldn’t be getting to play with new paddles after every tournament. Realistically, how long would this paddle perform as good as new in the hands of a 5 day a week 4.0-4.5 level player who rarely spikes paddles in fits of rage?
@GD-dv3uk unfortunately we can't speak for the long-term performance of the new Luxx Control Paddle as it hasn't been out long enough for us to give it a fair say. Knowing Selkirk, they will make a paddle that will last and perform for a long time! Don't forget Selkirk also has a lifetime warranty on the Luxx paddles.
it's spray on grit. it's going to wear off. same as the power air. BUT, a lot of the spin is generated by the dwell time/softness of the paddle , the way it absorbs the ball, so spin should remain decent even as grit wears down.

I think you can just call Selkirk and tell them your upset with the spin degradation.. If I happens. They will replace I believe
@@dominionn09 I'm pretty sure "grit" degrading is NOT covered by anyone. Paint grit is notorious for not lasting.
