I have only used Joola paddles for the last 3 years until I tried the Flik F1. It has power and touch like the Mod TA and such a good price. It takes a couple weeks drilling to really dial it in, but then it’s a true weapon on the court!!
I’ve been pickling for 15 years and I can honestly say , this is the best feeling shirt I have ever purchased . I have 6 drawers full of shirts and this one tops them all. That’s why I grabbed 4 at once. I will need more Fred
I have used for 2 years to support a small meniscus tear. They instantly take away the ache and soreness.
This power has it all, but most of all it has amazing power. Once you tame it and can control it it is an all-around phenomenal Paddle. I think it is better for an experienced Pickleball player.
Great product, however, it was a little tight after couple hours.
Hope fully it will stretch with wear. Does the job!
Ive used body helix compression for years and recommend them to my clients . Great compression , doesnt slide down and fits under pants without bulk.
Absolutely love this paddle. Great control and power. Will be excited to try it in upcoming tournaments this winter.
What a great paddle and what fun to play with. The spin, pop, and power are as advertised. It has a soft, pleasant feel. Have not had any issues adjusting my dinks and resets despite the paddle’s poppiness. Again, fantastic paddle.
I don’t know how the elongated version is approved but not the standard one, smh…
Anyway, this paddle is great! Nice power, pop, control, feel, big sweet spot, weight, the whole package! The only thing I didn’t like was the small grip, but I added a thicker replacement grip and that did the trick! I don’t plan on playing in any USA Pickleball or UPA sanctioned tournaments anyway, so it’s all good!
This paddle is perfect for beginners! The wide face gives you a huge sweet spot, so even off-center hits feel solid. The spin potential is amazing — top spin and back spin are second nature with the FLiK +. It really helps you learn proper shot mechanics and develop good habits early on. Plus, the pop is excellent. You get exceptional control and power with little effort. Would like to see a version with fiberglass insert like the F1.
Fantastic paddle,And for all you get with bundle very well priced. Control and power is as goid or better than any paddle i have played with.
Hi Ben,
Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We understand your concern about paddles being sold that are not USAP certified. We would like to clarify that 'legal' paddles are those that have been certified by the USAP as meeting their requirements for tournament play.
However, we also understand that players, both tournament and recreational, want more options and specifically, more spin. The USAP does not certify paddles with a PbCor score >0.43 and a texture above a certain threshold for grittiness. This has led players to choose paddles that are not USAP certified but still safe and fun to play with.
If you are a tournament player, you will need a USAP approved paddle. But for recreational players, we will continue to offer paddles that are power safe and enjoyable to play with. We want to assure you that our paddles are safe and in demand by pickleball players who see the USAP as a barrier to the growth of the game.
We hope this answers your question. If you have any further concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you for choosing our FLiK F1 smh Standard paddle. Happy pickleballing!
Best Regards,
Tom

Material thinner than the older versions that provided better back support and were wider as well significantly different and not.improved from original version
I have multiple paddles from BH and love switching it up. Great power, control and spin with this one. Added a bit of weight and love it even more❤️
The Flik F1 is my second paddle from Body Helix and it delivers in all aspects. In my experience with it so far it provides a balanced mix of power and control which has given me much more confidence, especially serving. I disagree with the youtube reviews that say it’s hard to control, I have not had that issue at all. Buy this paddle now!
Amazing Paddle!! I bought this for fun thinking it would make a great singles paddle. Turns out it enhances my game all around. I play better with the elongated shape and it is lightweight, especially considering the Elongated shape. My serves are wicked with this paddle and drive are god tier. This paddle still has plenty of touch when I need to dink and place shots as well!
