Vanguard Control S2

The Selkirk Vanguard Control S2 is a wide-body pickleball paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel. Weighing 8.1 oz with a 4.7" grip, it has a low swing weight of 105, falling in the 13th percentile. The twist weight is 7.035, rating 6.8 out of 10 and placing in the 89th percentile, suggesting good stability. This paddle's spin is measured at 1940 RPM with a rating of 7.1. The 16mm core thickness and wide-body shape may enhance control and provide a larger sweet spot. The lighter weight could improve maneuverability but might reduce power. The shorter grip may not be ideal for players using a two-handed backhand. This paddle may be suitable for control-oriented players who prioritize precision and stability.
