The VANGUARD Pro is Selkirk’s latest innovation in pickleball paddles, built for elite players who demand the best in performance. This all-court paddle is crafted with four layers of 12K raw carbon fiber—double the standard found in most paddles—to elevate spin and feel. Its thermoformed construction delivers the pop and power needed for high-level play while maintaining durability. As the hybrid model in the VANGUARD lineup, the VANGUARD Pro offers the plush feel and precise spin that players love, with added power to take your game to new heights.
Whether you're executing skill shots like drops and resets or hammering home drives and put-aways, the VANGUARD Pro ensures consistent performance across the court. The face provides a crisp, responsive feel, giving you the touch you need without sacrificing control. Players will appreciate its versatility, making it a standout choice for all-court performance.
The Vanguard Pro is ideal for intermediate to advanced players looking to dominate the game with precision and power.
Technology:
4-Layer 12K Raw Carbon Fiber Face: The Vanguard Pro features an advanced 4-layer construction of 12K raw carbon fiber. With twice the layers of the standard 2-layer paddles, this design enhances stiffness and control, while the raw carbon delivers multidirectional support for long-lasting durability and incredible spin potential.
X5+ 16mm Polypropylene Honeycomb Core: The X5+ core, tested in Selkirk Labs and first seen in Project 006, boosts control and consistency. It complements the 12K carbon face to deliver a solid, well-rounded performance on every hit.
Thermoformed Foam Edge: High-density foam injected into the edges creates a larger sweet spot, improving accuracy and stability. The foam also absorbs vibrations, providing a smoother feel while increasing overall power.
Octagonal Handle: The upgraded octagonal grip shape offers enhanced maneuverability and greater control, enabling you to direct your shots with more precision.
EdgeSentry™ Edgeguard™: The low-profile, lightweight edge guard is designed for durability, giving the paddle a well-balanced feel while protecting its edges.
