I’m still a beginner but naturally athletic with pretty decent hand eye coordination so I picked up the sport fast. I love this paddle! It lets me hit where I want at the speed I want. There was definitely a learning curve from when I started with my cheap paddle to one that actually handles well but I am so glad I took the plunge!
I would highly recommend this paddle for everyone including the newbie please use code RIAZMOMIN for saving.
I've been using it for a couple of weeks (only modified with a hesacore grip and felt tac over grip) and it is a bit poppier than my 6.0 DBD but also a bit easier to put spin on my shots which has been a lot of fun.
I believe the longer handle (longest on any paddle I've found) and elongated shape have also helped add some power and spin to my serves which is one of the bigger focus points of my game.
This has made cross court dinking easier but due to the extra pop some of them do go a bit higher than what I aim for. Some of my non dinking shots also go a bit further and it may just take more time for me to adjust but overall it's a great paddle. Looking forward to using it in rotation.
Maybe in a year or two I'll try the all court or power version but I do really like the Hurache-X platform.
Awesome quality paddle. Dont sleep on this brand.
The 11SIX24 Monarch Jelly Bean pickleball paddle has high-end performance at an unbeatable price. It has exceptional control, quick maneuverability, and a forgiving sweet spot. I found it has extra pop for aggressive play while maintaining finesse at the net. Compared to my LUX it has longer lasting grit, making it a fantastic all-court paddle. Plus, its customization potential allowed me to fine-tune weight and balance to my style. The Jelly Bean is a game-changer!
