S2 Vanguard 2.0

The Selkirk S2 Vanguard 2.0 is a standard-shaped paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, a material known for balancing power and control. The face is constructed of carbon fiber, often associated with control and feel. Weighing 7.8 oz, it falls into the midweight category. The 4.5-inch grip may be better suited for players with smaller hands or those who prefer a shorter grip. Its swing weight of 106 is considered low, suggesting ease of maneuverability. The 16mm core thickness contributes to control-oriented gameplay. This paddle may be suitable for players seeking a balance of power and control, particularly those prioritizing maneuverability. The combination of core and face materials could offer a blend of power and touch. The standard shape may provide a familiar feel for players transitioning from traditional paddles. However, the lower swing weight might not generate as much power as heavier paddles.
