Take your game to the next level with the Selkirk Vanguard 2.0 Epic Pickleball Paddle. The major change and enhancement being that the paddle's face is now matched with a Quantum-Carbon Fiber material. In addition Pro-Spin technology further improves the texture of the surface, and increases spin potential, while the Gen2 Durable Surface layer reduces loss of texture over time and extends the paddle face's longevity. Still present in the 2.0 series, is a 15.9 mm. X5 Polypropylene Honeycomb Core  — a  cross-woven carbon fiber material resulting in a sweeter sweet spot and longer ball dwell time for point controlling shot accuracy. An Edgesentry Edgeguard is abrasion resistant, ensuring paddle longevity, and also adds to the overall stability of the Vanguard 2.0 Epic paddle. Selkirk's Geo Grip provides the same great blend of tack versus absorption, which is wrapped around a standard 4.25 in. grip size, and 5.25 in. handle length that is perfect for one, or two hands on the paddle. The mid-weight model (7.8-8.2 oz.) provides a bit more mass based power, stability and directional control than does the lightweight example. And for a higher degree of paddle agility, the lightweight version  (7.3-7.7 oz.) of the Vanguard 2.0 Epic, is geared towards quicker reaction times at net, and optimal control.
