Nicest paddle I’ve played with

Much improved for control when dinking, but no distinguishable power from its predecessor.

I had the opportunity to try a number of Selkirk paddles and this one fit my game perfectly. It has more control and accuracy than other Selkirks I tried. It is not a power paddle at all but has great ball feel and a good sweet spot.

Selkirk Vantage 2.0 Epic
Jan 15, 2023
I love my new Selkirk Vantage 2.0 paddle. I was playing the Amped Epic prior to that but needed a replacement. The Vantage Epic has the same solid feel and forgiveness, but the surface generates more spin. It’s a great paddle!

I’ve had mixed results playing with this new paddle. It was advertised as playing outstanding spin but I produced much better spin with my last paddle…which unfortunately was lost. I paid too much for what I got.
