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.
