%The Selkirk LUXX Control Air with InfiniGrit Invikta Elongated brings a noticeably plusher center feel and better offensive pop than its predecessor, making it a good match for players who want a softer touch without losing counterpunching speed. It keeps you in control during dink battles and lets you generate plenty of spin on drives, though mishits near the edges tend to twist a bit more than you might expect. It is worth considering if you prioritize brand features and a cushioned response, though you will have to stomach a steep price tag compared to similar options on the market.
