Selkirk Vanguard Pro Epic Pickleball Paddle
Overview
Selkirk maximizes the performance, quality and durability with the Selkirk Vanguard Pro Epic! A premium 16mm X5+ Polypropylene Core along with the slightly wider Epic shape, produces an epic sweet spot, realistic power and a connected feel to your shots. Complementing the core s premium feel is Selkirk's thermoformed Foam Edge injection, which is protected by the ultra-durable EdgeSentry Edgeguard. And new for the Vanguard Pro series of paddles is the use of 4 Layers of 12k Raw Carbon Fiber per side of the paddle face! This renders a crisp, responsive feel at contact of the ball, not to mention easy access to spin; even without an aggressive level of swing speed. The Vanguard Pro Epic leans towards reserved baseline power, allowing players to strike their groundstrokes and serves with authority, and is even more adept and obedient once the action unfolds near the kitchen. Like its wide 7.8 8.2 ounce range of weight, the all-court capability of the Vanguard Pro Epic will appeal to beginner and advanced players alike.
