Promoted by Selkirk as "The Ultimate Power & Spin Paddle," the VANGUARD Power Air Epic adds new technology to one of their most popular traditionally-shaped paddles (it truly is "EPIC"). The Power Air series introduces a number of innovative features from Selkirk's Labs program that pickleball players have anticipated hitting broader market for some time. An aerodynamic opening in the throat aids in maneuverability and swing speed, while an edgeless design provides maximum hitting area. The throat flexes, resulting in increased dwell time of the ball on the face, and added power. The ProSpin+ NextGen Texture applied to the surface grabs pickleballs and imparts maximum spin. Next, the face is comprised of two layers of Fiberflex fiberglass (adapted from their AMPED series), and two layers of Quantum+ carbon fiber, providing the best in both power- and control-oriented materials. Finally, injected beneath that edgeless perimeter is a FlexFoam material which enhances durability of the edge, while spreading out the sweet spot and resisting torqueing of the paddle in your hand should you strike a ball off-center.

The VANGUARD Power Air Epic measures 15-3/4" long, and 8" wide enabling consistent all court play. The polymer core is 1/2" (0.5") thick, and the weight range is 7.7 – 8.1 ounces, with a weight average of 7.9 oz., and features a slightly longer handle than other models at 5-1/4" long.
