Pickleball enthusiasts are in for a treat with the launch of the 11Six24 Power 2 Ultré, a brand-new hybrid shape paddle that joins the Power 2 series featuring industry-leading HexGrit surface grit. This innovative paddle is set to raise the bar in the pickleball world, offering a unique combination of performance, consistency, and maneuverability.
The 11Six24 Power 2 series, which debuted in March, introduced a first-of-its-kind durable surface grit called HexGrit, a proprietary technology that is shaking up the industry. HexGrit is a silicon-carbide surface material designed to solve one of the industry's most persistent problems: spin loss over time. The Power 2 series initially featured three existing paddle shapes: Hurache-X (elongated), Vapor (hybrid), and Pegasus (widebody). Now, the Ultré shape is added to the lineup, offering a new breed of hybrid pickleball paddle with a long handle, parallel sidewalls, and a flat top.
Key Features of the Ultré Paddle
The Ultré paddle measures 16.35" x 7.65", which may seem like an incremental change, but it makes a significant difference in performance. The long handle provides great balance and plenty of room for two-handed shots, while the straight sides make it feel more like an elongated paddle. The flat top maximizes every millimeter of the paddle face, resulting in great maneuverability and an oversized sweet spot. The Power 2 series, including the Ultré, clocks in at the lower- to mid-tier power range, with stiff and responsive feedback, excellent pop, and a large sweet spot.
Several paddle reviewer channels, including John Kew, Pickleball Pursuit, Pickleball Effect, and Pickleball Studio, have put the HexGrit surface grit through rigorous testing, reporting virtually no spin loss after hundreds of games. This remarkable achievement sets a new standard for the industry, with other brands striving to match the performance of the 11Six24 Power 2 series. With the addition of the Ultré shape, the Power 2 lineup is now more elite than ever, offering pickleball enthusiasts a top-notch paddle that is sure to take their game to the next level.
