PRH The Verdict
Hybrid Jelly Bean 2 — control-leaning foam with serious HexGrit spin.
The middle shape when Pegasus felt wide and Ultre felt heavy. After thorough on-court evaluation, the 11SIX24 Vapor Jelly Bean 2 is a strong fit for all-court hybrids who want jelly bean 2 dwell and spin without going full widebody — see category scores below for power, control, spin, and feel.
If you're comparing it against other foam-core paddles, it's one of several great foam core paddles we've played this year.

Performance Scores
PRH On-Court Feel
Same soft-dense JB2 pocket as Pegasus with a bit more length in the hybrid outline. Spin still leads the conversation; power is honest when you swing through.\n\nSwing weight sits higher than Pegasus — not slow, but you notice it after hours of kitchen speed-ups. Forgiveness stays strong for a hybrid.\n\nWe used Vapor when the night mixed drives and dinks and we didn’t want a pure widebody silhouette.
Performance & Testing
The 11SIX24 Vapor Jelly Bean 2 went through our standard on-court protocol - drills, rec play, and at least one tournament match. Scores reflect consensus feedback, not a single reviewer's opinion.

HexGrit long-life grit story shared across JB2. Confirm warranty on PDP.
