We've got some news we're genuinely excited about: Hometown Pickleball is now an authorized dealer for 11SIX24, and we're kicking things off with two of their best-known lineups — the Power series and the Power 2 series.

If you haven't heard of 11SIX24 yet, you will. They started in 2023 after their founder cracked an expensive "premium" paddle after just a few months of regular play, and asked the obvious question: why does a good paddle have to cost $250+? That's a philosophy we can get behind here in Oneida — we've built this business on the same idea, just applied to how we treat customers.

Why We Picked 11SIX24

We don't add a brand to the shop just because it's trendy. Before we bring in a new line, we want to know the construction holds up and the value is real.

A few things that sold us on 11SIX24:

• Floating core construction on every Power paddle, which is designed to give you explosive pop when you're loading up on a drive, but a softer, more predictable feel when you slow down for a dink or a reset. It's not a one-gear paddle.
• Textured, grit-forward surface on the Power 2 line, built to hold onto spin shot after shot.
• USA Pickleball approval across the lineup, so you're covered for sanctioned and tournament play.
• Real value at the price point — 11SIX24 has built a reputation for delivering performance that stacks up against paddles priced well above them, without cutting corners on materials or QC. That's the kind of brand we like standing behind.

The Power Series (Gen 3)

This is the paddle that put 11SIX24 on the map, starting at $99. It runs a carbon fiber face over 11SIX24's Gen 3 construction, built for players who want straightforward, reliable power without babying the paddle between games.

The Power 2 Series (Gen 4)

The newer generation, starting at $209. Same floating-core DNA, upgraded Gen 4 construction and grit surface for extra bite on your spin shots, and dialed in for intermediate to advanced players who want power they can actually control — not just raw pop that sails long on you.

Both series come in multiple shapes, so you can match the paddle to how you actually play:

• Hurache-X — elongated, for reach and a bit more paddle-length leverage
• Vapor — hybrid shape, a blend of reach and forgiveness
• Pegasus — widebody, for a bigger sweet spot
• Ultré — hybrid widebody, the newest shape in the Power 2 lineup
