Check authenticity & warranty of 11Six24 rackets

11Six24 is creating a new wave in the Pickleball community thanks to its high-tech paddles at very reasonable prices. However, this popularity also brings concerns about products of unknown origin. In this article, PicklePlay will help you 'catch on' to how to identify genuine 11Six24 paddles and understand the warranty process so you can be completely confident when owning this high-performance paddle line.

I. Check the authenticity of the 11six24 racket

1. Check Serial Number and NFC

Every authentic 11SIX24 paddle comes with a unique serial number.
Location: The serial number is typically engraved directly on the paddle face or near the neck of the paddle.
How to verify: You can visit the 11SIX24 Warranty Registration page to enter this serial number. If the system accepts the code, it is a genuine product. Cheap fakes (usually under $35) often do not have a serial number.
For models with integrated NFC (Gen 2 onwards): Scan the NFC at the neck or handle of the paddle. The website it directs to, https://11six24.com/pages/warranty-registration, can be used to verify authenticity and activate the warranty.

2. Identifying features based on design and materials

Carbon Fiber Surface: 11SIX24 is known for its distinctive textured T700 Carbon Fiber surface. Counterfeits often have a smooth, slick surface, lack grip, or are made of cheap materials like plastic/cardboard, resulting in a hollow feel when played.
Color: Models like the Vapor have a distinctive blue color. Counterfeits often have off-colors (e.g., sky blue instead of the standard dark blue).
Logo and Printing: The 11SIX24 logo must be sharp, without blurring or font discrepancies. The word "11SIX24" must clearly appear on the paddle face; fakes often change the name to "Raptor" or similar names to avoid copyright infringement.

3. USA Pickleball (USAP) Certification

Most of the brand's paddle lines, such as Vapor, Pegasus, and Hurache-X, meet competition standards.
Certification mark: Check for the "USA Pickleball Approved" logo printed on the paddle surface.
Look up the list: You can cross-reference the model you're holding in the USAP Database by searching for the brand name "11SIX24".

4. Accessories and Packaging

Paddle Cover: Authentic paddles often come with a free paddle cover.
Labels: The butt cap usually has a sticker with information about the manufacturing location (often "Made in China") and the brand logo, securely affixed with specialized rivets under the grip.
