Defensive Paddle
Paddle has great spin and control for unparalleled defense. I like it for inside out swings on offense.

Great Consistent Paddle
I love this paddle! Lots of power. I purchased the one with a very short grip so it took some getting used to but I love it now.

Great Paddle But I Will Keep Searching
It was a very nice paddle, but the handle was too short. Also felt it was a little too thin.

Right Where I’m Supposed To Be.
I’m an 3.5 player and I’ve really enjoyed the Selkirk VANGUARD Power Air S2. It has great pop on drives and put-aways, and the spin is noticeable right away. It leans toward power, but once I adjusted, I still felt confident with control at the net. Overall, it’s been a fun paddle that’s helped me play more aggressive. Definitely happy with it.

Selkirk Vanguard Power Air - S2
I have the Halo, which I wore out, The S2 Vanguard Control, which I love, Ben Johns Joola, Meh, Not so much for the price, And a CRBN tru-foam which I got for half price, but it's just ok. The S2 Vanguard Power has no power compared to the paddles I mentioned. I thought I would try an Edgeless paddle. Its a 'No' for me. It just felt dead but it had more control i kind felt. I was looking for that "This is the one" paddle because I like the short handle since I don't use 2 hands and wide body. That's why I like the S2 Power but you don't make those anymore. All in all I am a Selkirk big fan.

Lighter And Faster
Faster at the net. I lost some power from the back. Maybe it will be better once I am used to the paddle.

Selkirk Vanguard Power Air - S2 Paddle
I was surprised how much better my game is with this paddle. At first I kept hitting long shots until I got a sense of the sweet spot and the spring. Then I had some great power shots and some easy dink shots that used to be harder to place. The grip is a little short for my hand but it didn't take much for me to adjust and make some good returns.

Vanguard Power Air Pro
This was not the paddle for me, I don't like the lack of control over my shots , every one told me not to play with it anymore, I sold it to another player and they didn't like it either. I much prefer Lux control Epic or S2 .

I like the weight and the grip. I think I’m playing better because I’m focusing more due to new paddle.
