Selkirk Omni adds adjustable tuning, balances power and control

Selkirk’s next swing at the power-paddle market is not about adding more juice. It is about giving players a way to tune the feel, and that is the real story behind the Omni.

The new paddle is set to launch June 2 and, on paper, it looks like Selkirk’s answer to the question Boomstik left behind: what if the same explosive platform could be dialed back for players who want control without giving up the modern power game? The Omni is an all-court, full-foam paddle that tones down the Boomstik’s raw output in favor of a more connected, more controlled response. That matters for frequent retreat players and tournament travelers who want one paddle that can handle resets, counters and third-shot drives without feeling overly hot on soft hands.

Selkirk is also keeping its InfiniGrit surface on the Omni, which is the right call if the goal is to preserve the spin and durability players already expect from the top end of the line. Selkirk says InfiniGrit first appeared on Project 007 and is built for spin and durability, with lab testing showing it lasting roughly three times longer than raw carbon. In Selkirk’s testing, the surface held texture after about 150 abrasive cycles, while raw carbon became nearly smooth after about 50.

The biggest change is the adjustable MOI tuning system. On Boomstik, Selkirk’s MOI setup used semi-permanent clips to boost the sweet spot and stability on off-center hits. On Omni, those weights are movable. That means players can shift the paddle toward maximum control, a balanced all-court setup, or full plow-through power, depending on how they want it to play. For a player who liked the Boomstik concept but found it too demanding, that adjustment could be the difference between a fun demo and a real match-day paddle.

Omni also makes more sense once you look at the Boomstik that came before it. Selkirk introduced Project Boomstik on August 14, 2025, priced at $333, and called it its most advanced paddle to date. Built around BoomCore and the MOI tuning system, it was designed to deliver up to 12% more ball velocity than a Gen 3 paddle while resisting core crush and keeping performance over time. Omni looks like the next step in that line: keep the power-and-durability formula, then make it adjustable enough to suit more all-court players.
