Overview
This version uses a 10mm polypropylene core, a Florek carbon fiber face, and an octagonal grip. The thin core favors speed and power, while the carbon face supports spin-focused play. It is USA Pickleball approved.
Selkirk offers the Project 007 in multiple thicknesses and shapes, so confirm the listing matches this 10mm version. The brand says its surface is built for longer-lasting texture and spin. A review describes the Project 007 as very stable, with strong power, spin, and control, but less forgiving on off-center hits.
Play style
Choose this paddle if you build points with fast hand speed, aggressive groundstrokes, and quick putaways. The 10mm core is aimed at power rather than a softer, more controlled response. Its carbon face and textured surface also suit players who rely on topspin and slice.
It can work well for baseline drives and attacking hands battles. Be more cautious if your game depends on soft kitchen resets, touch, or forgiveness outside the center. The thinner core may demand cleaner contact, especially during fast exchanges.
Best for
- Players who want more power from a thin core
- Baseline attackers who hit aggressive drives
- Players who prioritize fast hand speed and quick putaways
- Spin-focused players who want a durable textured face
Look elsewhere if
- Players who need maximum forgiveness on mishits
- Players seeking a soft, plush kitchen response
- Players who prioritize control over power
- Anyone unwilling to confirm the exact thickness and shape before buying
Strengths

- The carbon fiber face supports spin-focused shots

Things to consider
