11SIX24 Hurache Jelly Bean 2 16mm Pickleball Paddle Review

MATT'S VERDICT

The Jelly Bean 2 is 11SIX24's EMA foam line, four shapes at $169.99, all 16mm, all UPA-A only. EMA is softer and more rubbery than what most foam cores use, and there are three foams stacked in there, EMA through the center, an EVA ring around that, and expanding foam at the edge.
