We’re Giving Away the Limited-Edition Tesla Aurum Pickleball Paddle

Earlier today, Selkirk and Tesla dropped the limited-edition Tesla Aurum Pickleball Paddle.

The Tesla Aurum is a follow-up to the Plaid, which sold out in 3 hours last year.

Same tech. Different look. Same limited-run energy that made the first one nearly impossible to get your hands on.

We broke down everything you need to know about the Aurum here. The short version: full-foam core, edgeless shape, InfiniGrit Surface, TPU Power Ring, $295 retail, USAP approved, and it will not be around forever.

But you could get one for free.

How do Tesla pickleball paddles actually play?

We know what you're really asking.

The Aurum shares its full tech stack with the Plaid: same core, same face, same everything that matters on court. So when independent paddle reviewer John Kew put the Plaid through a full testing battery, those numbers carry over:

• Spin: Nearly 2,500 RPM (yes, that's elite)
• Swing weight: 124 (noticeably hefty, but stable)
• Power: Squarely in the all-court category
• Sweet spot: Solid for an edgeless paddle, though not the largest among full-foam options
• Looks: Unlike any other paddle

In short: it performs like a top-tier paddle. And it looks like nothing else on the court.

The Plaid sold out in hours. Twice. History says the Aurum won't stick around.
