LABS Project Boomstik® Raw Carbon for Academy

NEW! MOI Tuning System

Maximum Sweet Spot and Balance, Right Out of the Box

This paddle features Selkirk’s cutting-edge Moment of Inertia (MOI) Tuning System, which means your paddle is precisely weighted for improved balance and performance. 

WHAT IS THE MOI TUNING SYSTEM?

It’s Selkirk’s new performance technology designed to fine-tune your paddle’s swing weight (how heavy it feels while you swing) and twist weight (the paddle’s ability to resist twisting on off-center hits).

THE RESULT?

• A larger and more forgiving sweet spot.
• Balanced Weight Distribution: Not too top-heavy and not too light — giving you better control and comfort during play.

*The MOI Tuning System is semi-permanent and comes pre-installed for optimal performance. Note: Removing could potentially cause damage to MOI parts.

Players loved the punch of the SLK ERA Power. Now add 14% more exit speed to turn the power dial to the max. The ultimate power paddle has arrived, and it’s bringing the boom. 

Meet Project Boomstik® Raw Carbon, the latest innovation from Selkirk LABS that rewrites the narrative on power paddles. Forget the status quo of sacrificing durability for power — where the only way to maximize velocity is for the core to quickly deteriorate — because this paddle has power that lasts. Seriously, our engineers keep running durability tests over and over again, but still haven’t been able to take it to failure. How confident are we in Project Boomstik’s durability? Enough to back this paddle with a limited lifetime warranty.

No core crush. No break-in periods. Explosive power and consistent performance from day one.

What makes it possible? At the center lies the new BoomCore™ — PureFoam™ surrounded by an EVA Power Ring and fused together for our most powerful foam core system ever. The BoomCore has solid feel, a massive sweet spot, and lasting durability — with booming power for hard shots that catch your opponent by surprise. If they blink, they may miss it — this paddle shaves a crucial 25 milliseconds off your opponent’s response window (roughly the blink of an eye). That difference in power turns reachable shots into forced errors.

How does the Boomstik stack up to other power paddles? It adds 12% more exit velocity to your shots versus a comparable Gen 3 paddle. This paddle gives you the ultimate advantage on the court, and your opponent won’t see it coming.

Project Boomstik also introduces the MOI Tuning System — a new paddle technology that delivers elite performance with a maximum sweet spot and balance, right out of the box. It’s an overall design approach that includes a semi-permanent perimeter weighting solution that balances mass distribution with precision-engineered weights clamped to the edge guard. By putting the weight exactly where we want it — shifting mass toward the outer regions of the paddle and increasing the moment of inertia — it stabilizes the paddle during off-center hits. The result is clear: a larger and more forgiving sweet spot to help you get more balls over the net.

This is a paddle that’s impossible to ignore — its booming power will give the ultimate advantage on the court through vicious drives and serves. 

Don’t let your opponent get the edge. Get the Boomstik. Feel it. Hear it. Win with it.   

Available in two paddle shapes.

Widebody | Longer Handle & Wide Paddle Shape: The widebody shape features a longer handle for added reach and extra space for two-handed backhands. This shape enhances stability and delivers a more consistent, forgiving sweet spot — especially on off-center hits. Ideal for players seeking the largest sweet spot and a consistent feel and performance across the face.

Elongated | Longer Handle & Longest Paddle Shape: Give yourself a better chance on balls you have to reach for. The longer handle has ample room for two-handed backhands, while the elongated shape delivers greater plow-through and power on every shot.

Orders include a red Selkirk LABS paddle case and certificate of authenticity. Your paddle is already precisely weighted for a maximum sweet spot and balance, right out of the box.

BoomCore™ for Explosive Power and Relentless Durability.

The new BoomCore — PureFoam surrounded by an EVA Power Ring and fused together — is our most powerful foam core system ever. Alongside a massive sweet spot, this core packs a powerful punch with unrivaled durability. No core crush, no break-in period. Explosive power without compromise.
