Follow-up to the Vanguard Power Air (1st Tournament Play)

Have had the Vanguard Invikta Power Air for about 6 weeks. It’s definitely been a learning curve and getting used to this paddle. Have to admit, I was a bit apprehensive about switching to a new paddle 6 weeks before our spring tournament - but it did not disappoint! Had focused on getting the serves deep into the back court and power/control on the kitchen line shots.

Results speak for themselves - 11-2, 11-3, 11-2, 11-5, 11-4, 10-11, 11-2, 11-3, 11-5

The one game I lost by 1 point was mainly due to heavy wind that kicked up during that match - the ball just kept carrying longer and longer…the serves were right on target and extremely hard to react to. Incredible power smashes, spin and kitchen line control…

Thanks Selkirk - you made a fantastic paddle! Couldn’t be happier!

Love this power paddle and Selkirk ball

The ball pops off the face. I play with pace, spin, and control (college squash player.) It handles soft shots and spin easily once you get used to the extra responsiveness. Purchased it a several weeks ago and have played with it about 20 times. I tried the included weight strips but a full strip added too much power so I cut the tape in half and stretched it around the bottom half.

Kevin Seits, the ambassador covering Stuart FL gave me one of the new Selkirk balls. I like it a lot. The ball is similar to the Franklin but is stiffer. The new hole design seems to handle wind a little better. It has a one-year guarantee not to break/crack. I have played with it for over 2 months. Unless I lose it, it seems like I may wear it out before it cracks.

So far so good

I upgraded from the Onix Z5. This feels similar in terms of weight but is less "poppy" than the Z5 which is what I was looking for. Power is similar and spin is also more. I'm not confident how long the spin will last though because it feels like the grittiness is already getting smoothed out the more I play.
