Do longer pickleball handles mean narrower paddles?

Selkirk gives weight ranges. EVO Control and Atlas start at 7.6 oz, OMEGA Hybrid Air and Trickshot at 7.7 oz, and Nexus and AMPED Pro Air at 7.8 oz. The upper endpoints are 8.0 oz for Latitude, 8.1 oz for EVO Control, Atlas and OMEGA Hybrid Air, and 8.2 oz for Trickshot, Nexus and AMPED Pro Air. Latitude shares EVO Control’s lower endpoint. Selkirk calls the last group average midweight. The weight limit reads each range’s upper end, so setting it to Latitude’s maximum leaves only that model. AMPED Pro Air Epic has an 8 in width and 5.25 in handle. Both XLs have 5.75 in handles and 7.4 in paddle widths; the five Max shapes have 4.85 in handles with the shared paddle dimensions below.

Seven are 16 mm; the Trickshot, Latitude and Nexus are 13 mm. Selkirk's core figure and paddle dimensions don't tell you spin, power, feel or whether a paddle is approved for sanctioned play, so read each paddle's page for that.

The Max versions of the OMEGA Hybrid Air, Latitude, EVO Control, Nexus and Atlas are all 16 in long and 7.85 in wide, so choose among them by core and weight. The Trickshot is 15.7 in long, and the AMPED Pro Air Invikta is the longest paddle here at 16.5 in by 7.45 in.
