11SIX24 Power vs. Power 2: Which Generation Fits Your Game
Share
Since we launched 11SIX24, the question we get most is simple: Power or Power 2 — what's actually different, and which one should you buy? Here's the real breakdown.
Power (Gen 3): The Original
The Power series is where 11SIX24 built their reputation for value. It's Gen 3 construction with a carbon fiber face, starting at $99. It comes in two shapes — Pegasus Power (widebody) and Hurache-X Alpha Pro Power (elongated) — both built for straightforward, reliable power without the premium price tag.
Power 2 (Gen 4): The Upgrade
The Power 2 series moves to Gen 4 construction with a floating core and a textured grit surface for more bite on spin shots, starting at $209. It's available in four shapes: Hurache-X, Vapor, Pegasus, and Ultré — the last two shapes only exist in the Power 2 generation, not the original Power line.
What Actually Changed
- Core: Power 2 moved to a floating core design, which is meant to give more explosive pop on drives while staying softer and more predictable on resets and dinks.
- Surface: Power 2 added a grit-forward texture specifically for spin — the original Power line has a more standard carbon face.
- Shape options: Power 2 doubled the lineup, adding Vapor and Ultré alongside the original Pegasus and Hurache-X shapes.
- Price: Power runs $99, Power 2 runs $209 — more than double, so it's a real step up in investment, not a minor refresh.
Which One Should You Get?
If you're getting into pickleball and want a genuinely solid paddle without spending much, the original Power line at $99 is still a real value — it's the paddle that built 11SIX24's reputation in the first place. If you're an intermediate-to-advanced player who wants more spin control and a more refined feel, Power 2 is the current flagship and worth the jump.
