Our take on the Power 2 Hurache X
With the release of the Power 2 Series, 11SIX24 introduced a new grit technology called “HexGrit.” The paddle face is very gritty to the touch, and the brand claims the HexGrit is more durable than raw carbon fiber and other grit technologies on the market.
So if you’re a player who likes the feel of full-foam paddles and want something with longer lasting grit (why wouldn’t you want that?), then this is a great option.
Check out our in-depth review of the new Ultre Power 2 here.
Is the Power 2 Hurache X worth $209.99?
Yes, for players who want full-foam play with grit that lasts. At $209.99 it sits in the high price range, and the very gritty HexGrit face held up through several sessions of play without a noticeable drop in texture.
Who should buy the Power 2 Hurache X?
Players who supply their own pace and value spin over raw power. The elongated 16mm full-foam feel is stiff and poppy rather than plush. If you need the paddle to do more of the work finishing points, there are more powerful options.
Buy it if
- You generate your own power
- You care more about spin than pace
- You want longer-lasting grit on full foam
- You like a stiff, poppy feel
Skip it if
- You want the softer feel of Gen 3
- You need a USA Pickleball approved paddle
- You need the paddle to finish points
How does the Power 2 Hurache X play?
The grit, not dwell time, does most of the spin work, so you can load up flicks with a compact stroke. Drives carry enough shape to clear the net with margin and still drop in, and punch volleys stay aggressive without sailing long. Resets feel stable across the face.
What are the strengths and trade-offs of the Power 2 Hurache X?
Its biggest edge is long-lasting grit and spin on a full-foam paddle. The main cost is less touch on soft shots than plusher, older-generation paddles offer.
Strengths
- Durable HexGrit face with high spin
- Short-swing spin on flicks
- Drives dip in consistently
- Stable, consistent feel across the face
Trade-offs
- Less touch on dinks than Gen 3 paddles
- Not built to do the work for you
- Doesn't absorb pace on resets as well
