A first for the SLK HALO series, this Carbon + Kevlar all-court pickleball paddle combines the added force of a power paddle with the reliable feel of a control paddle, making it an ideal choice for intermediate to advanced players who seek an optimal strength-to-weight ratio for durability without sacrificing maneuverability for rapid swings and precise shots. 

The cutting-edge construction introduces Patent-Pending Carbon Fiber Kevlar LinkWeave technology, alongside an advanced thermoformed molding and a FlexFoam injected perimeter to the HALO series, enhancing player performance and paddle durability for serious players. 

The SLK HALO Pro's resilient raw carbon kevlar surface improves spin, and its large sweet spot and lighter weight enhance maneuverability, allowing for powerful drives, speed ups, and put-aways with control at the net, solidifying it as the pinnacle of craftsmanship and performance within the HALO series of paddles.

Available in two paddle shapes, Max or XL.

Surprisingly Good Paddle

So, why “surprisingly” good paddle? On paper, the HALO looks great, carbon fiber and kevlar weave, perfect size, shape, weight, etc. At only $150 there must be a catch. Paddles built to this specification are $230 plus. No catch, the HALO is that good. No matter your play style; power, control, or spin, the HALO will fit your game.

Pickleball Paddle Shape Guide

Max

XL

Max

Versatile and balanced

Ideal for beginners to seasoned pros, and tennis players transitioning to pickleball. Some players prefer this shape, while others who don’t have a preference opt for it as a way to continue learning their preferences. The SLK Max shape is most similar to the Selkirk Epic shape.

XL

Extend your reach and create more power

Ideal for intermediate to pro players who have an aggressive play style, like more room for a two-handed grip, and want more reach. The SLK XL shape is most similar to the Selkirk Invikta shape.
