The Squishy Paddles were designed to help people using the cyclone feed eliminate ball breakage due to cold tempertures, brittle paint and high feed rates.

The Squishy Paddles are made from a much softer rubber than the stock A5, X7, and 98 Cyclone paddles. The Squishy Paddles have been designed to increase the amount of paddle surface area that actually touches each ball. This is accomplished though rounding all the edges on the paddles, molding each so that its as gentle on the paint as possible.
Our 500 plus testers have comfirmed that these paddles drastically reduce the amount of ball breakage caused by or related to the cyclone feed and its paddles. These paddles are a must have for anyone using a cyclone loader.

Cool, I just installed a new set of these in my A5. I talked to a guy at CC and he said the first run of these were too soft and the spindle would spin inside them knocking them out of alignment and turning the cyclone in to a paint blender. Seems they've already fixed the problem and the new paddles are like an orange color. When I Tested the the newer ones with the vortex spindle it also knocked the paddles out of alignment, but then I tightened the spindle bolt really tight and I think that did the trick. Now if only I could get the stupid RT tuned up I could give it a solid test...
