The Tesla x Selkirk Paddle Is Back (But Not for Long)

by Alex E. Weaver on

The Tesla Plaid Pickleball Paddle by Selkirk goes on sale again today, in even more limited quantities than its first release.

Honestly, if you read that headline and want one of these paddles, stop what you're doing right now, get your credit card out, and count your lucky stars if the hottest collab of 2025 isn't sold out again already.

The first run of the Tesla x Selkirk pickleball paddle flew off the shelves in about three hours, proof-positive that the unexpected collaboration was just too enticing for fans of either brand to pass up – even for the head-turning retail price of $350.

The paddle, "inspired by the aerodynamic design of Tesla vehicles" and tested in an actual wind tunnel, features a full-foam core, Selkirk's iconic throat hole, and its new MOI Tuning System integrated into the paddle's edgeless design.

If you don't snag this one but still want some new Selkirk gear, check out our friends at Midwest Racquet Sports. Code THEDINK gets you a discount at checkout.

Tesla and Selkirk Made a Pickleball Paddle
Years in the making, the USAP-approved, limited-edition collab nobody saw coming drops today and comes packed with a slew of new tech and features

And now, back by very, very popular demand, the brands have run it back for a second, even more limited batch of the much-hyped paddle that took everyone by surprise and launched a thousand memes and a bustling eBay secondary market in the process.

The Tesla Plaid Pickleball Paddle by Selkirk goes on sale at 11 a.m. PST, 2 p.m. EST today, Monday, December 22.

And once again, it's only available on the Tesla Shop website.
