FLIK TerraCoreXC 16mm

The FLIK TerraCoreXC plays like a platform — out of the wrapper it's stiff, fast, and unforgiving on anything off-center. In casual rec play it was a blast: clean hits jumped off the face and felt great in hand. But the second I hit higher-pressure matches, resets sailed and block volleys popped up. After twenty hours I still couldn't fully dial it in stock. Adding weight at the sides helped a lot, but you have to commit to tuning it. Not for players who want a paddle that works out of the box.
