Selkirk's Pickleball Lab: Science Meets Sport

Selkirk's Pickleball Lab: Science Meets Sport

Selkirk is a company that makes pickleball paddles.

They have a special lab where they use really advanced science, like what's used in airplanes, to make their paddles the best.

Tom Barnes, who runs the lab, says they test every tiny part of the paddle to make sure it's strong and has no flaws.

They even check each little dot of ink on the paddle.

This helps them make paddles that are super strong and great for playing pickleball.
