Great Control Paddle For Intermediate Players

Glad I transitioned to this control paddle from the selkirk evo power. As game progresses I figured I needed to have more control over my game and this paddle is just right for that. I am finding that the ball lands inside the courts majority of times unless I deliberately hit too hard, there is nice spin on this paddle so I am able to get it over the net as it dips down. When I do need to hit hard it does offer the power but keep in mind this is not a power paddle and serves and shots do feel at first they're not as powerful if you are used to a power paddle. The core feels sturdy, the elongated shape helps get those high volleys and I am finding I am winning more games against better players. Already feel like it has helped me get from 3.5 to 4.0 in my game now.

Smooth Paddle

has more pop than the Vanguard Control, as expected. I had that paddle for 21 months. The VG Pro feels great, I'm glad I purchased this one.

Terrific Pickleball Paddle

This is a terrific paddle. Just the right weight, grip length of 5.5" is perfect, I really like the elongated length and width of the paddle.

Power And Control

My new paddle has just the right amount of pop for power combined with absorption for control. It’s the perfect paddle for someone looking to improve both aspects of the game.

Great Paddle

I’m a fairly new pickleball player and after consulting with Selkirk regarding my style of play etc. I took their suggestion and tried this paddle out. I LOVE it, well balanced, nice feel and as a former tennis player I love the extended handle for my two handed backhands.

Great All Around Paddle!

I started off with the SLK EVO CONTROL XL and it was a nice paddle. My wife took it over so I was forced to purchase another paddle. After doing a little research I knew that I wanted to continue to hit with a paddle focused on control and not necessarily power. The Vanguard Pro Invikta was my choice. Great control and touch. Power if you need it but you have to generate that power. The paddle’s design and thickness is built for maneuvering and quick volleys. Overall, I’m very pleased with this paddle.

Better After 20 Games.

Took awhile to break it in. Not a lot of pop at first.

Stoked For My New Racket

A few friends of mine let me borrow this racket and I really liked it so it was very happy to see that it was on sale at Dick’s. I am excited to up my game.
