FAQs
What exactly is this "BioFLX™ Face" you claim is so innovative?
The BioFLX™ Face is Revolin's first major innovation in pickleball. It combines multiple layers of fibers from the strongest plants in the world with a specially engineered resin system to create a never-before-seen bio-composite face that is stronger than fiberglass and more forgiving than carbon fiber.
How is BioFLX™ better for players?
Our BioFLX™ Face dampens vibrations allowing for more solid impact and feel on the ball. This, combined with our high-quality polymer core, lets the ball dwell on the face of the paddle for longer, allowing for more spin and better ball redirections.
You should also feel better, knowing that BioFLX™ produces produces about 95% less CO2 than competing carbon fiber and fiberglass-composite faces. The fibers are also completely renewable and biodegradable, all of which helps keep our planet healthier.
What is the "LavaFLX™ Face" material, and how does it enhance your play?
Our Revo Pro Hybrid series is designed with our Raw LavaFLX™ face, made from a high-strength and lightweight volcanic rock to generate a greater trampoline response for more power on putaways.
Inlaid with long-lasting, molded grit for aggressive spin and angled shots.
What sets Revolin's innovative LavaFLX apart from carbon fiber?
- Elasticity: LavaFLX features a lower tensile modulus, making it more elastic. This allows the fiber to flex slightly and better cup the ball, enhancing power and spin.
- Toughness: With higher toughness than carbon fiber, LavaFLX offers a more durable surface layer that is less prone to fragility.
- Sustainability: Made from renewable volcanic rock fibers rather than crude oil pitch, LavaFLX is less energy-intensive to produce, minimizing its environmental impact.
- Temperature Resistance: LavaFLX can withstand temperatures twice as high as carbon fiber. While this may not significantly affect pickleball paddles, it’s impressive, especially when you're hittin' with some real "heat."
What makes your paddle eco-friendly?
Our paddle is 20% renewable and 40% recyclable, by weight. We also source 95% of our materials including grip supports, core, raw fiber, and more from the United States reducing transportation pollution. We're committed to working towards a better future in sports and replacing carbon fiber and fiberglass is step one! We've also partnered with One Tree Planted which plants one tree for every paddle we sell.

Can I smoke your paddle?
Yes, we have gotten this question multiple times. We can’t reveal which plants make up our proprietary BioFLX™ face, but please don't smoke it! While our paddle face is made from natural materials, it is unsafe to consume in any way.
