Selkirk VANGUARD Control S2 Paddle

Selkirk Vanguard Control S2 Raw Carbon Pickleball Paddle

With the shortest handle and largest sweet spot in the Vanguard line, the Selkirk Vanguard Control S2 Paddle offers consistency and reliability in a standard shape. This results in impressive control with just enough pop. The Vanguard Control line prides itself on its feel and excellent spin, and thanks to the 15.75" overall length and 8.25" wide T700 Raw QuadCarbon Fiber face, this paddle ticks those boxes. Whether you prefer to swing the lightweight or midweight version, this double-layered, impressively textured face offers long dwell time, impressive spin, and reliable durability that keeps even our most difficult shots consistent.

Selkirk's Vanguard Control S2 Paddle also offers control and consistency on backstrokes and third shots thanks to the 16mm Vanguard X5+ Honeycomb core. An evolution of the old Labs 006 core, this newly developed core offers an edge-to-edge sweet spot for consistent contact, impressive vibration dampening for a smooth feel on every shot, and energy return that ensures we don't lack energy on the putaways. The 11.94cm octagonal grip keeps your hand close to the face, improving maneuverability and shot accuracy.
