Verdicts
Holbrook Pickleball Power Pro X 14
Holbrook's power build is a conventional 14 mm thermoformed hybrid with the pop numbers to match. You are paying partly for the cosmetics, but the construction is honest.
Selkirk Vanguard Power Air
Explosive acceleration and crisp feedback for players who create their own control. The air-dynamic throat cuts drag noticeably on fast swings.
