Ultré Jelly Bean 2

The requested lighter weight really clutch. This paddle plays like a dream for a 3.0

I bought a Jellybean 2 Ultre for two specific reasons, and it really delivers.

First, as a former tennis player, I play with a lot of spin. The JB2 delivers more spin than anything I’ve ever played with. On serves, I can take people even further off court, and my topspin serve really kicks.

Second, I’m coming off a diving board core Gen 3 paddle, and have found that poppy power paddles can be difficult to modulate returns on big cannonball serves and in firefights at the net.

The JB2 is softer and has a more linear power curve, instead of the poppy “cliff” that I’ve experienced with power paddles. Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t a dead paddle, there’s still plenty of power, it’s just more controlled with that more straight line power curve.

I like the feel, as well. I know dwell time is more feel than fact, but I think you do get more of that control feel with the paddle, and for me, that’s confidence.

I’m a 4.0 on good days and a 3.5 on bad. And I love the jelly bean 2 Ultre.

I absolutely love this paddle! I’ve been playing with more power paddles as of late, but felt like I needed more control than power when playing the soft game. I already knew that hexgrit was amazing, but combining it with the pocketed feeling that occurs when hitting the ball gives it even more spin. The soft and dense feeling is quite a stark contrast from the power paddles on the market with their stiff and hollow attributes. My drops and drips have been more successful and resets now don’t launch high into the for another smash down on me. Power is there when you need it, so it doesn’t feel like it is a dud. I know the power 2 series is now their flagship paddles, but truly feel like this is an underrated set. Build quality and construction is solid and love the design. It has become my main paddle and don’t see that changing anytime soon.

paddle was easy to control at first hand

I ordered a Power2 Vapor a month ago but couldn't pry it loose from my wife's hands. She's an accomplished tennis player w excellent footwork n hand/coordination and benefited from the P2 pop. In my case, I decided to opt for control to help my resets, dinks and subduing a "banger's"drives. The Jelly Bean2 w its new core n Ultre shape has helped w it's larger sweet spot n more absorbing core. I am more relaxed and confident bc I am less inclined to "pop" up shots and can actually swing harder to generate more spin n keep my shots in bounds. On a more subjective topic, the graphics n color are amazing n unique to the Jelly Bean; and, is $40 cheaper than the P2 paddle.

This paddle is definitely not a power paddle! If you are looking for a paddle that is soft in the feeling, has great dwell and outstanding spin then this is the one for you. Don't sleep on this paddle, once customized it will put balls away. Another upside is the handle length along with the taper of the throat makes a two handed backhand feel not as cramped.

I started the 11six24 journey with the Lavender Ultre’ P2. What a great paddle, however, I found myself hitting a few more counter out than I liked. Then my buddy got the JB2 and talked me into getting one. He sold his and I was waiting on mine thinking ok well we will see. Wow what a great surprise!! The Grape JB2 Ultré is not only aesthetically amazing it’s just the paddle I need for my game. My first control paddle ever and boy has it given my game some spark. Everything stays in, I feel like I have a super power now. 💪🏼😝😜 I liked it so much I bought the Pegasus and the Vapor. Wow just wow!!

The paddle has nice control on your shots. Great paddle!

had a great experience with my paddle. love the design and the color so much! still adjusting to the new feel, but the grit is top tier and the handle is very comfy for two hands. the foam in the core is also amazing. i'm pulling off resets more and less popups in the kitchen than before. though ultré is a great shape, i think the sweet spot might be a little small for me. still having a hard time returning balls from putaways, hard drives, and overheads.

I have been played for over 2 yrs. This paddle is a game changer. It doesn’t pop or insane power like Power 2 series, but it forces me to focus on the technique to get the ball in play while provide great forgiveness and good sweet spot

Just wow… This paddle has such amazing touch on the ball. The hexgrit mixed with the new foam technology makes shaping the ball such a breeze. This paddle is my new main!

Excellent pickleball paddle mid to hi power

I gravitate towards power paddles because I have a bad shoulder. I was so hesitant to get this for myself since I was already very happy with my hurache x power 2. But this paddle just blew me away. Yes it has less power but the sweet spot is huge. This paddle forced me to be more creative with my shot choices which made my pickleball games more enjoyable. Never thought that was actually possible

Love the original JellyBean series and this update makes it even better! Brings the control of the original JBs and adds a touch more power/pop for the modern game. Hexgrit is proven and so good knowing you will have amazing spin for a long while. Dinks/3rds and resets are just magic with the JB2. All-Court power/pop + Hexgrit gives you the confidence to go after your swings and know it won't fly on you!

Although this paddle is named the Jellybean2 and is the originals successor in many ways, it also includes the essence and playing characteristics of the previous All Court and Alpha Pro Power paddles too!
It's low pop and high spin give the player the ability to surgically place just about any shot wherever they want. Although it's not topping out on the Power scale by todays metrics, it is still not found lacking when a fuller swing is utilized.
If you want a lower pop control style paddle that lets' you place and rest the ball to dictate point construction, this could be the paddle for you!!

Awesome paddle. Way less pop than the power 2 but with durable grit. Big fan.

I have played 2 games so far but love everything about the paddle. Some “YouTubers” claim it doesn’t have enough power but I think it has plenty and the control and touch are awesome. Would highly recommend to people who don’t need extra “power” and are more interested and getting better with control, dinks and resets.

Very good on grip and spin. I've also gained more control on the ball. The grits on the paddle are durable after two week playing .

Great paddle. Love the softer foam feel. Normally I am not a fan of foam paddles, but this is the only foam paddle to this day I would play with. Thanks.

Love the feel of it

This is the first time I used it and it’s a keeper!!

Unbelievable spin without losing too much power.I love the feel and the look.

Paddle so quickly, in perfect condition. The paddle cover is an excellent addition. The grit on the paddle is amazing. Just started using the paddle but so far it seems to be an excellent all court paddle.

Good paddle
