The latest FLIK F-1 elongated is absolutely a paddle worth trying out. It allows great control, plenty of grit for spin all while packing a real punch. The handle totally enhances the way this paddle plays. I’ve played with every paddle that Body Helix has made and this one is the top gun! It’s like a hybrid of the X-1 combined with the X-3.

Found the shoulder sleeve because needed a compression sleeve to get through my final year of men’s volleyball, couldn’t find anything that would work and then found BodyHelix . It worked so good when I started developing jumpers knee just before season thought I would try out the patella and knee sleeve and have worked wonderfully. Have had the shoulder sleeve for 5/6 months now and the knee and patella sleeve for 2 months only thing I would say about the shoulder sleeve is if using often the Velcro part of the sleeve wears off after 6 months just had to buy more but very much worth it, this product is not just for pickleball but volleyball too!

I bought this when I was looking to upgrade. The paddle is recommended for advanced players. I thought it might be too much for me since I’ve only been playing for a few months. After playing with it a few times I love it. It has great spin and allot of pop. I have been able to add allot of top spin to my shots and it it great for soft game of dinking. I can’t compare with other high end paddles except a joola Perseus I used once. I liked this way better. It has better feel , spin, control.

Can’t say enough about this paddle!! With foam core being the new buzzword of 2025, this was first to market and shows the absolute potential of the material. Spin, dwell, power, and pop are at the absolute top! Feel is fantastic! Never had a power paddle feel so easy to control and dial in. Bravo Body Helix, get the density or thickness figured out and possibly a poly weave (titanium) facing sheet, and we could have a serious, legal, game changing winner on our hands, and in our hands!

It’s coming in hot! Great pop and spin.

I’ve had this paddle for 1 month now and play 2 days a week for 3-4 hrs a day. Great paddle but not a 5 star for me due to the flaking that occurs on the face of the paddle. The white stands out on the gold face.

The paddle is a great paddle overall. It’s biggest strength I would say is how powerful the pop off the paddle is, while still having the added grit to control the placement. The “drip drive” is a much easier shot with this paddle than with most other paddles I’ve used. The one downside I’d give it is a slightly smaller sweet spot. My misses with the paddle would mainly come from block volleys and errant deflections where the powerful pop of the paddle would put the ball up high when I didn’t hit the sweet spot just right.
Overall this is a very good power paddle. Many folks that I let demo this paddle really loved it, especially former tennis players. Almost everyone enjoyed this elongated paddle more than the standard terracore, myself included.
For reference, I currently use the Paddletek CX 14mm, and I would say this paddle easily beats the CX in power and spin but the core/touch of the paddle leaves a bit to be desired.

Awesome

Best paddle ever! Tried many. Perfect right out of the plush cover. No need for tape or another grip ( hesacore used in the past). Just a great paddle !!

At first it was a tough paddle to play with. About 4 of us bought the paddle. Just to train top spin and slice. We added some weights to the paddle and it totally changed the paddle. The flik plus with the weights is so frigg'n amazing. Everyone loves this paddle. The grip is the first thing they notice and they can't believe how nice the grip. Then the grit on the carbon fiber face. Grit is excellent. Then the paddle hits so nice. Definitely the paddle turned into a 10 out of 10 with the 3 bodyhelix weights I put on it.
I recommend this paddle to everyone. It's fun to play with too. Thanks bodyhelix!!! 👍 good job.

The original tab let loose a week after I got the shoulder brace,but Ive not had the problem since.These should last me forever

X2 Pro Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle

Having access to demo paddles have raised interest in this line of paddles... Also, members have recently seen Body Helix ads on You Tube, which introduces the name to our members... The demo inventory that I maintain for our club has been a great experience for new users of "plush" control kevlar face technology...

Received my X5 and love it. First it's a great looking paddle. The spin is ridiculous. The power and pop is great. The pop at the net is controlled but can be lethal.
So far I'm 2 for 2 giving this company a 100% plus rating.
