Selkirk Vanguard Power Air Epic Pickleball Paddle

SELKIRK VANGUARD POWER AIR EPIC PICKLEBALL PADDLE

A culmination of over two years of Research & Development, in partnership with top Pickleball pros such as Tyson McGuffin, the Vanguard Power Air 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 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.

Pairing a traditional Pickleball paddle shape with a large surface area and a long handle, the Epic delivers the perfect blend of power and control. Versatile and well-rounded, the Epic paddle shape is ideal for the beginner and the seasoned pro.
