    Who each paddle is for

    11SIX24 Pegasus Jelly Bean

    Best for 3.5+ players who prioritize control and reach who play with a balanced two-handed/one-handed mix. The widebody profile gives you a generous sweet spot, the 16mm core gives you a soft touch window, and the raw carbon face bites on spin shots.

    Playing style: control

    NOX X-FOAM Nexo 14mm

    Best for intermediate players (3.5-4.5) looking for a balanced upgrade who play with a balanced two-handed/one-handed mix. The hybrid shape splits the difference between reach and forgiveness, the 14mm core balances pop and control, and the raw textured carbon face holds spin on rolls and resets.
