Flik has some of the nicest paddle covers I’ve seen. Nice looking simulated leather with the FLiK brand embroidered on the outside, well padded and plush on the inside.
I’ve used ProKennex black Ace, Paddletek Bantum and Ronbus paddles in the past. My low cost Ronbus worked well but fell apart after a few months. I’d seen good reviews for this paddle so I took a chance (low risk due to low cost) It took no time to adjust to this paddle. My game is better than ever! My control is more precise and the power is sufficient. The grip that it came with is great. (I thought about switching to a Hesacore like I usually do, but I like it the way it currently is).
I find that the Flik F3 Hybrid gives me more control of my shots than I had with my previous paddles. The other paddles had too much pop and I found that my returns would sometimes sail long or a slightly mistimed volley would go out. This paddle is much more forgiving, but I find I still have the pop I need when I need it.
It has great grit! Unfortunately it caused my shoulder to hurt. I think it required a little more of my power, not as much pop as my current paddle. I know I can’t return so I may sell it.
Great paddle! Sharp looking, great spin, amazing control. If you are a true pickle baller this is the paddle for you.
Compression sleeve is very strong and great quality. It supplies great knee support. I can wear it all day and it does not rub me raw.
The F3 Elongated gives me useful extra reach and forgiving, controlled play, especially on resets. It isn’t the quickest in hand exchanges or the most powerful option, but I’ve enjoyed its control-focused feel. FLiK supplied this paddle for review.
A little sweet spot but ideal for bangers. Serves has never been better.
I love the elongated F1 paddle! My paddle collection over the years looks like a store demo rack, but out of all of them, I truly love the F1. It drives the ball exactly how I want with great topspin, and it’s also very quick with lots of feel in the kitchen. The grip is very comfortable. It’s solidly built, and I keep a total of three in my bag to rotate. It took a few games to dial in, but once it was, it was perfect! This has to be one of the best values for price and performance on the market.
Solid all-court paddle for advanced players, with plenty of pop for speedups & counters, and good feel & control for transition zone.
The level of customer service was outstanding and very surprising. I had an issue with my order and I was contacted and they resolved the issue and sent me an extra gift for my troubles. Hard to find this level of support and caring these days. Very happy with the paddle.
Hi Joe, we're sorry to hear about your experience.
We appreciate your feedback, and we thank you for your support of our veteran owned company. This paddle should have come with a cover. I have reached out to our Team to make sure they send you the cover, along with a little apology gift. I see 2 other orders in our system from you, near its launch and one during a special when we offered a second paddle at a discount.
The paddle has never come with weights except during sales or special offers, but several years ago we did offer the paddles at a much higher price and they included an accessory kit. We removed the accessory kit so we could lower the price of the paddles and offered the accessory kit as a standalone product. We have reduced the price of these paddles even more to reflect that they are no longer approved paddles for USAP tournaments, but we still include the cover.
We have made no attempts to fleece or exploit and clearly state in our images and in the product description of the paddle that the paddle comes with a paddle and cover, with nothing else included. And, we are in fact charging under $100 for this paddle, which represents a very deep discount not a charge of more for less.
We will be shipping your cover, along with a little gift to say we are sorry for the mixup. We have made sure our Team knows that this paddle still comes with a cover. We wish you and your son the best in your pickleball journey.

Best compression sleeve I’ve tried. Not your typical fabric. Neoprene and it stays where you put it. Price is excellent
Pretty much what I expected more pop with control advanced player paddle.
I really like this paddle. I tend to be a power player but need to dial it back a bit. This paddle has given me plenty of power and has allowed me to play with far more control and feel. Before the Flik 3 I used a name brand power paddle and liked it but I find the Flik 3 to be a far more "all around" paddle for play. I like the Flik 3 so much that when they lowered the price I have ordered two more. Believe me it is a "can't miss" paddle.
Really enjoy my new paddle. Huge difference noted from my previous paddle, which was part of a set. Handles great, easy to control and spin. Highly recommend!
I made the mistake of ordering a shorter thigh compression sleeve. I have used the longer ones on both legs for years. I wanted to return the shorter one and wrote to body helix twice to get instructions to return and have never received a response.
Hi there, we're sorry to hear about the inconvenience. I see no emails in our system under your name or your email address. I also do not see a return request. I have sent you an email to the address associated with your order. . Please use that email to contact us.

body helix
I love it. It is softer and feel than the carbon true foam barrage and has way more ability to place spin and pace. The drives and serves are heavier without sacrificing control on the resets 2 g in the handle with half a gram each at three and 9 o’clock and half a Gram each at 10:30 and 130. Just wanted another one as a backup.
So happy with the Body Helix knee compression sleeve, (I also use one of there ankle sleeves). I’ve tried numerous sleeves, some are better than others, but the Body Helix has been the best and is worth the few extra dollars. Save your self some pain and dollars and go straight to the Body Helix. I no longer require Hyaluronic acid shots in my knee. I am now able to play Pickleball 3-4 times a week and at least 4 hour sessions,(12-16 games per session). Having fun again without the knee and ankle pain. MRI has shown a meniscus tear and right arthritic knee. The sleeve has a nice and full compression which keeps my knee stable during the hard and fast movements. I hand wash and air dry after each use. Getting ready to order another sleeve as a backup.
I like my F1 so much I wish I had waited a week to take advantage of yesterday's email special for 99 and 2 for 149.
Hi J Reid, we're thrilled to hear you love your F1 paddle! I have sent an email about the paddle sale. I look forward to hearing back from you.
