2024 Selkirk Vanguard Power Air Pickleball Paddles

We Are Pickleball: A Family-Owned Brand in the Pacific Northwest

Nestled in the breathtaking Pacific Northwest, overlooking the Selkirk mountains, Selkirk Sport is the brainchild of Mike, Rob, and Jim Barnes – two brothers and a father who embarked on a mission to create the market leader in pickleball paddle innovation and technology.

At the heart of this family-owned business lies a deep-rooted commitment to the genuine integrity and close-knit community that defines the sport of pickleball. As we promote this rapidly growing game, we strive to redefine the way the world views pickleball and inspire every generation to participate.

Every Selkirk Pickleball paddle is handcrafted in the USA with the finest materials and proprietary, leading-edge technology. This commitment to American workers reflects our unwavering values – we believe in doing business the right way. The longevity of our paddles depends on proper care, with an average lifespan of one to five years, and a recommended replacement every two to three years.

Selkirk: More than Just a Brand

At Selkirk, we pride ourselves on being more than just the premier Pickleball brand – we are Pickleball. Every paddle we produce is handcrafted in the USA, featuring the finest materials and proprietary, cutting-edge technology. Our dedication to creating and developing the best-performing Pickleball paddles is fueled by our passion for the sport, providing you with top-of-the-line equipment and giving you an edge in every match.

Elevating the Pickleball Experience

The VANGUARD AIR paddle takes your Pickleball game to new heights with our innovative QuadFlex 4 Layer Hybrid Face. Initiated in Selkirk Labs with Project 002, this pioneering blend of two layers of Fiberflex and two layers of Quantum+ carbon delivers twice the stiffness in all directions, offering you unparalleled control, maximum power, and the perfect feel.

Selkirk's commitment to innovation extends beyond the paddle face. We utilize cutting-edge technologies like FlexFoam Perimeter and 360° Proto Molding to elevate the game of pickleball. Our FlexFoam Perimeter technology injects specially formulated foam into the paddle's perimeter, increasing durability, weight, sweet spot, and vibration absorption – a feature originally developed in Selkirk Labs for Project 002.

Furthermore, our ThroatFlex design provides maximum flex when you connect with the ball, extending dwell time on the paddle and enhancing power play for unbeatable consistency. The INVIKTA paddle, with its increased sweet spot size and elongated surface area integrated with a long handle, delivers full court and full power capabilities.

At Selkirk, we are more than just a brand – we are the embodiment of the pickleball lifestyle, committed to revolutionizing the sport and providing you with the ultimate playing experience.
