Feb 13, 2026 · $209.99 · Full foam (Gen 4) Power 2 family (HexGrit) The Vapor went live Feb 13 at noon Pacific, the Hurache-X and Pegasus on Mar 6, the Ultré in June. A top-five paddle of the spring. Durable grit is the headline, it plays calmer than the Power name suggests, and it is legal on the pro tours only. USA Pickleball: not on the list · UPA-A: approved
12
Feb 7, 2025 · $169.99 · Honeycomb + foam (Gen 3) Power series: Hurache-X · Vapor · Pegasus A $170 Gen 3-style power line in three shapes. Pickleball Effect recommended it for players moving from control to power and pointed buyers who want maximum pop to JOOLA or Paddletek instead. It anchored the sub-$200 power tier until the $99 foam paddles arrived in September. USA Pickleball: approved · UPA-A: not confirmed here
123
Jul 2024 · $99.99 · Honeycomb + foam (Gen 3) Hurache-X Jelly Bean (original) The softest, most control-first paddle in 11SIX24's Hurache-X line, and a sub-$100 answer to the year's power arms race. Matt's Pickleball and Pickleball Science treated it as a feel-first paddle for players who did not want Gen 3 pop. It seeded a franchise: the Jelly Bean 2 followed in August 2026. USA Pickleball: approved · UPA-A: not confirmed here
