What actually separates them
- Selkirk LUXX Control Air Invikta has the thicker core (20 mm against 16 mm). Thicker cores usually feel softer and more controlled; thinner ones give more pop.
- The cores are built differently: Ronbus Quanta Pro R3.16 is full foam, Selkirk LUXX Control Air Invikta is honeycomb with foam edge. That is usually the difference you feel first on contact.
- Grip sizes differ: Ronbus Quanta Pro R3.16 is 4.125 in around, Selkirk LUXX Control Air Invikta 4.25 in. An overgrip adds size; nothing takes it away.
