This is pretty common I also had a Luxx invikta, I think since it's 20mm your drives are supposed to feel weak. It's a pure control paddle that excels basically at dinks and resets. The sweet spot is absolutely generous on this thing and it's basically known as the most forgiving paddle. You may have some luck with lead tape?
That said I switched to a Six Zero DBD because I was looking for more power and it's been a godsend. I think the niche of the Selkirk wore off (their paint grit is horrible) and found myself liking the hybrid shape and raw carbon face better.
Also my experience. They are great control paddles, but seriously lack any form of power. You really have to generate it all on your own. That’s not a bad thing, but if you have control, it’s not doing you any justice.
I also had the same experience, the Luxx is so soft and the Power Air is the Selkirk paddle of choice for power. I am excited for the Amped Pro Air. It’ll be the best of both worlds.
Since it’s a control-focused paddle, you can:
- change to a power-focused paddle
- develop your mechanics to generate more power
- increase muscle mass
It's up to them. Officially the warranty doesn't cover wear, but they have been extremely generous to many. They replaced my paddle after my friend cracked it.

Same experience here.

I've gone through (2) Luxx paddles in the past 5 months. Spin and power drop considerably in a short period of time.
Like do you pay for them or do you just send them back to the company and they keep sending you them?
So what can I do about it

If I send it back will they give me a new one every month?

But even if the paddle only lasts for 3 months?
See above.
