A great paddle with longer reach. The Vanguard 2.0 Mach6 lets you achieve the next level of performance with unwavering speed and consistency. With the Mach6 paddle shape, this creates an elongated surface combined with the longest handle of any Selkirk racquet. Because of this, it allows for powerful two-handed backhands and makes it an easy integration into the sport for tennis players. With the new Quadcarbon face – which provides a stiffer shot allowing for more consistency, this gifts the paddle a strong feeling of control and spin. The X5 Core absorbs vibrations and redirects power back to the core which allows for a quieter shot and softer feel. The geo grip was made specifically for the Vanguard which gives more comfort, improved traction and wicking.

- Quadcarbon Face: Designed to achieve a larger sweet spot and longer resonance time, the VANGUARD face features proprietary bi-directional, cross-weave carbon fiber technology in two seamless layers, on both sides of the paddle. The double layer provides twice the stiffness in all directions, flattening the ball more on each hit, to give you consistency, maximum spin, and perfect feel.
- X5 Honeycomb Thick Poly Core: Built for consistent speed, using advanced polypropylene honeycomb technology, the VANGUARD core works in conjunction with the revolutionary Quardcarbon face to absorb the vibration from each hit and yield unwavering speed. The thicker core of the VANGUARD Hybrid transfers more energy to the core, giving you a larger sweet spot and a softer feel.
