Have you ever met someone and you feel that you’ve known them for many years? That is what I felt like the first time I played with the 11six Hurache-X.
While I have over 50 pickleball paddles, I found that I was able to warm up and play with the Hurache-X after just a few minutes.
The control and spin on this paddle was impeccable, but let me start by going through a bit more about 11six24, the unboxing experience, the playability, and then the specifications.
What I love about 11six24
There are a lot of things to get excited about the Hurache-X, but I think it all starts with the founder and the mission. The founder found that it was difficult to justify the high cost of pickleball paddles, so his goal was to build quality, durabie, and reliable pickleball paddle without the exhorbitant price.
I love that, and I have seen that in this paddle and in the 11six24 Monarch pickleball paddle.
Playability
What I loved most about the Hurache-X is the playability of the Hurache-X. I’ll cover the specifications later, but let’s talk about how well this plays.
Control
I found the control of the Hurache-X exceptional, thanks to its 11SIX24 CFC Surface. The triple-layered design, featuring Toray T700 Carbon Fiber and fiberglass, provides a responsive playing surface.
It feels precise when placing shots, especially during net exchanges and delicate dinks. The balanced dimensions and advanced core also help me maintain consistent accuracy during gameplay.
Spin
The Hurache-X makes adding spin feel effortless. The textured surface offers excellent grip on the ball, allowing me to execute topspin drives and tricky slices with confidence.
Whether I’m at the baseline or at the net, I could consistently add spin to throw off my opponents. It’s a paddle that truly elevates my spin game.
Power
The power of the Hurache-X really stood out to me. Its unibody construction enhances durability while maximizing energy transfer.
The 16mm core delivers powerful rebounds, and the 8.0oz weight strikes a perfect balance for hard-hitting shots.
With its responsive surface and optimal swing weight, I had no trouble dominating rallies with powerful smashes and putaways.
Unboxing Experience
Firstly, I always appreciate when a brand provides a pickleball paddle cover, and it’s always nice when the cover carries the brand’s identity, which you find in the Hurache-X.
In addition, I believe that it’s fun that the cover includes a QR code that helps you learn more about this brand.
Here’s some pictures of the paddles.
The unboxing experience was fun, so let’s now talk about the specifications.
