X1

The Body Helix X1 is an elongated paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. The 16mm core thickness may provide a balance of power and control. Carbon fiber faces are often associated with control and feel. The elongated shape could offer a larger sweet spot and increased reach. Weighing 8.1 oz, it falls within a midweight range. Its 122 swing weight (high) suggests it may require more effort to swing but could generate more power. The grip length is 5.25 inches. The twist weight is 6.85, with a twist weight rating of 6.3 out of 10 and a percentile of 83, indicating good stability on off-center hits. This paddle might be suitable for intermediate to advanced players seeking a blend of power and control. The combination of core and face materials may offer a balance of power and touch. The high swing weight could benefit players who prefer a heavier paddle for drives. However, the higher swing weight might be less maneuverable for some.
