FLiK Falcon smh Hybrid Paddle
Why We Call It Red Chair Time ❤️ - Click to Read
When she lost her battle with cancer in 2023, I started Red Chair Time to honor her and help others still fighting. Those chairs symbolized comfort, connection, and peace—and now, every piece we sell carries that spirit forward.
This isn’t just about selling and living the lake life. It's about a life with purpose. A portion of every purchase supports cancer research, because our mission is personal. We’re here to create beautiful spaces—and to fund hope.
Thank you for visiting!

This paddle is not USAP approved
What happens when you take the exact same world-class layup, core, and flawless design as our USAP-approved FLiK Falcon Elongated paddle and put it in a different shape? You get another paddle that's still an absolute weapon—and one that makes us want to smack ourselves in the head.
We call it the FLiK Falcon smh, and it’s the same dwell pads, the same muted sound, and the same speed that passed certification in the Elongated Paddle. Yet, for reasons that still make us facepalm, this particular paddle didn’t make it through the final test. It's a riddle we don’t have an answer to yet, but we want to get these paddles into your hands. You want them, and we want to get them to you.
To do that, we had to get a little creative. You'll notice the official USAP stamps have been removed and covered with our new smh logo—a playful way of acknowledging the outcome. We're proud of this paddle's performance and know you'll love it, so we simply couldn't let it sit on a shelf. It will be playing in the Sandbox while we continue with the R&D.
This is your chance to own a limited-edition piece with a great story. It's a top-tier paddle for players who understand the unique circumstances of its release. Just don't try to peek underneath the stamp!
