Ultré Power 2 — frequently asked questions

Is the 11SIX24 Ultré Power 2 good for beginners?

Not our first recommendation. Forgiveness sits at 89/100 and the paddle is tuned for intermediate/advanced/pro play. A developing player is better served by something more forgiving and cheaper — see our beginner shortlist.

Is the 11SIX24 Ultré Power 2 worth the price?

At $220 it sits in the 65th percentile of the database for cost and the 88th for IQ score. If those numbers do not line up for you, the Vatic Pro V-Sol Pro 16 at $99 is the value alternative we point people to.

How does the Ultré Power 2 compare to the Friction Pro Elongated V2?

They are close on DNA. The Ultré Power 2 reads power 94 / control 85 / spin 92 against 92 / 86 / 94 for the Friction Pro Elongated V2, at $220 versus $249.99. Our full head-to-head breaks down every trait.

Is the 16 mm better than the 14 mm version?

A 16 mm core has longer dwell time, which is what produces softer resets and more repeatable placement. The 14 mm build trades that dwell for a faster, poppier response off the face. Control players take 16 mm; players who want the ball gone quickly take 14 mm.

Is the 11SIX24 Ultré Power 2 approved for tournament play?

Sanctioned play requires the model to appear on USA Pickleball's official approved-equipment list. 11SIX24 submits its retail models for approval, but approval is per model and configuration, so check the current USAP list for the exact Ultré Power 2 build before you enter a sanctioned event. We do not list approval status we have not verified.

Does the Ultré Power 2 have good spin?

Spin scores 92/100 — the 83rd percentile of our database (strong, well above the database average) — off a Raw carbon face. That is above the database average rather than class-leading; you will get shape on the ball without it being the paddle's selling point.

Is the Ultré Power 2 head heavy?

Swing weight is 120 kg·cm² and twist weight 6.8. That is on the heavy side of the database — you get plow-through and stability, and pay for it in hand speed at the net. Static weight is 8.3 oz.

Does the Ultré Power 2 benefit from lead tape?

It already swings at 120 kg·cm², so adding weight at 12 o'clock will make it sluggish. If you customise, keep it to a few grams at 3 and 9 o'clock for stability. Any added weight can affect tournament legality if it changes the paddle beyond the approved configuration.

What is the best overgrip for the Ultré Power 2?

The stock handle is 5.5 in long with a 4.25 in circumference. A thin tacky overgrip adds roughly 1/16 in of circumference and a few grams above the balance point — the cheapest way to fine-tune fit. If your hand is larger than the 4.25 in stock size, build up with an under-wrap first rather than stacking overgrips.

What should I replace the Ultré Power 2 with when it wears out?

Face wear shows up as lost spin long before the core dies. The straight replacement is another Ultré Power 2; if you want to change something, the JOOLA Perseus Pro V 16 adds control (96 vs 85).

Who is the Ultré Power 2 best for?

Power players who miss the center often. Skill levels we would put on it: intermediate, advanced, pro. Handle length of 5.5 in supports a two-handed backhand.

What shape and size is the Ultré Power 2?

hybrid shape, 16.4 in long by 7.5 in wide, 16 mm Full foam core, Raw carbon face, 8.3 oz. Released 2026.

Is the Ultré Power 2 good for two-handed backhands?

Yes — the 5.5 in handle gives your top hand a full grip rather than riding the throat.

Ultré Power 2 or Pegasus Gen 3?

Both are 11SIX24. The Ultré Power 2 reads IQ 87.3 at $220; the Pegasus Gen 3 reads IQ 85.1 at $190. The clearest split is forgiveness (89 vs 83).

How does PickleballLookup score the Ultré Power 2?

The IQ score of 87.3 is a weighted composite of the 15 Paddle DNA traits, normalized across every paddle in the database so the number means the same thing on any page. Performance traits carry the most weight; descriptive traits like swing weight carry none. Full methodology is published.
