Body Helix Flik F1 TerraCore XC Elongated vs Body Helix X2 Pro

The Body Helix Flik F1 TerraCore XC Elongated is a 16 mm elongated paddle; the Body Helix X2 Pro is a 19 mm elongated one. Across the 5 specs with a clearly better direction the Flik F1 TerraCore XC Elongated takes 3 and the X2 Pro takes 2. The Flik F1 TerraCore XC Elongated swings lighter (114.0 vs 134.0) — quicker hands at the net, where the X2 Pro plows through the ball instead. That is a preference, not a win. The X2 Pro is $10.00 cheaper at $180.00.

Two paddles from the same brand, so the differences are the ones the maker chose. Every number below is lab-measured, not a manufacturer claim.

Open this in the interactive comparison to add up to two more paddles, or tune either one with lead tape on its own page: Flik F1 TerraCore XC Elongated · X2 Pro.

Static weight 7.9 oz vs 8.9 oz — a few grams of tape moves swing weight far more than static weight, so either can be pushed toward the other.
