Improved Control
I got this control paddle after playing with a much 'poppier' Joola paddle for 6 mos and finding it difficult to really do the soft game. The Selkirk Vanguard Control is amazing for dinking, soft game, but also controlled power shots! I got the lightweight option and find it also faster at the net. All around great choice. I'm a 67 year old female, 5'4" but even my 6' hubby loves it.

Absolutely LOVE my new paddle
I own a Luxx Control Air and wanted a carbon fiber paddle as well. I demoed the Vanguard Control from a local store and instantly fell in love with the paddle. The quality behind Selkirk's products is second to none. The lightweight model gave me the opportunity to customize where I wanted to place my tungsten tape without adding a ton of extra weight. If you are looking for a new paddle I would seriously consider the Vanguard Control Air
