Selkirk Sport Vanguard Pickleball Paddle | Choose The Vanguard Power Air, Vanguard Pro or The Vanguard Control | Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddles | 360 Proto Molding & Flexfoam Perimeter

A culmination of over two years of Research & Development, in partnership with top pickleball pros, the Selkirk Vanguard Power Air pickleball paddle addresses the need for both power and spin. As professional pickleball became increasingly focused on power and spin over the past 2 years, the larger community discovered the benefits of power and spin, especially when it comes to dominating opponents. VANGUARD Power Air technology was developed to champion these players and provide a paddle that enables full control of the court, with performance power and maximum spin. The first iteration of this technology was developed in Selkirk Labs and launched as Project 002. Utilizing Labs member feedback, Power Air optimizes the 002, providing additional control from the SuperCore, enhanced consistency with 360° Proto Molding, and next-level aerodynamics and edge durability with Aero-DuraEdge Edgeless technology.

• QUADFLEX 4 LAYER HYBRID FACE: Our VANGUARD AIR paddle takes your Pickleball game to another level with the QuadFlex 4 Layer Hybrid Face, initiated in Selkirk Labs with Project 002. Featuring a first-of-its-kind blend of two layers of Fiberflex and two layers of Quantum+ carbon, this paddle provides twice the stiffness in all directions, giving you control, maximum power, and the perfect feel.
• FLEXFOAM & 360° PROTO MOLDING: At Selkirk, we use cutting-edge technologies like FlexFoam Perimeter and 360° Proto Molding to elevate the game of pickleball. Our FlexFoam Perimeter technology injects specially formulated foam into the paddle's perimeter, increasing durability, weight, sweet spot, and vibration absorption. This technology was originally developed in Selkirk Labs for Project 002
• THROATFLEX: We created ThroatFlex to provide maximum flex when you connect with the ball. Our new open throat design extends dwell time on the paddle and enhances power play, for unbeatable consistency.
• S2: Continuing the tradition of a standard shape, yet it boasts the largest surface area of all of our paddles. With a shorter handle than the Epic, the S2 has a larger surface area on the face of the paddle. If you are a hardcore Pickleball player that doesn’t mind a slightly shorter handle, the S2 is your paddle!
