Selkirk Vanguard Power Air EPIC PB Paddle: I been using this paddle for about 2.5 weeks. I've previously been using Selkirk's Amped S2. The Power Air EPIC is a good paddle.

Vanguard Power Hit Epic Paddle: I purchased this for my 13 year old grandson. It's an extravagant birthday gift, but I wanted to thank him for coming out each morning during summer vacation to play with me and the others in our group. He's surprisingly good for his age and the paddle appears to be helping him improve. He loves it.

Pickleball Paddle: It is a nice paddle ..I have played with other very nice paddles . I Would classify its performance as in the top 3 out of 27 different paddle of various brands .

I am a little disappointed with a paddle on the upper end of price not being sent with a neoprene cover. The action ind

Epic Vanguard: Too much power and not enough control ***PBC Reply*** Hi Rob, thanks for the review.

Power Air: The paddle has a lot of power, but the feel is taking a while to get use to and control is an issue!
