Helios Gen 3.5 - Sol | Flare | Blaze (coming soon)
Helios Gen 3.5
Power, Performance, Speed
The Helios Sol & Flare paddles have been 2 of our favourite paddles of 2025 (with the Blaze coming in for review soon).
We are working closely with Helios to bring their performance line to Asia! Their attention to detail and no compromise approach to quality really set the standard for what to expect from a premium paddle.
Sol
The elongated paddle of this series, the Sol is suited for players who value great feedback in a paddle and are focused on power shots. It comes pretty light out of the box, so after dialling it in with some weights throughout the paddle (and near the top if you want more power/plow through) it becomes a true force to be reckoned with. Resets and drops are amazing and precise with this paddle, especially with how easy it is to shape the ball with topspin or slice. If you crave precision and power, this is the way to go.
Flare
The BEST hybrid paddle we've played all year right out of the box! The Flare is lightning fast, consistent and stable right out the box. Shaping the ball has never been easier, as shots are accurate and fast, as well as very easy to manoeuvre. Whether its power, or pop, this paddle does it all. It's really a true testament to the word hybrid as it can do everything so well without really sacrificing anything! This is with paddle completely stock with no weight setup. The possibilities with this paddle are endless, and the huge sweet spot ensures that the quality of your shots are consistent and dialled in always.
