Key Features
New Blade Shape: Completely redesigned blades for a super controlled stroke with better traction.
ANTI TWIST SYSTEM: Our new Anti Twist System ensures that the handle and blade are always lined up correctly. Paddle with confidence - your shaft and handle won't move!
Technical Features
13° CARBON-COMPOSITE BLADE: The secret of a magic blade lies in the surface area, construction and angle of the blade. Years of testing have proven that 643 cm² is the magic number for the surface area. The 13° angle gives you a longer reach with every stroke and makes the blade versatile for all conditions. It allows for a longer stroke and smoother paddling to push you out of the water fast enough to catch waves as well as easy cruising on flat water, providing speed without the need for advanced technique. Our blades are made in a sophisticated sandwich construction with a high density PVC core wrapped with high-carbon/glass fiber layers. This makes it light yet responsive. The 2 pronounced concaves provide an incredibly precise and powerful catch and an even more powerful stroke. The design allows for smoother water flow around the blade, increasing paddling cadence and efficiency.
PUSH-PIN LOCKING SYSTEM: The combination of tight tolerances between the inner and outer shaft tubes and the push-pin locking system make our 3-piece paddles feel like a 1-piece shaft.
ERGONOMIC T-GRIP HANDLE: Specifically designed for SUP paddling. The sophisticated shape provides instant feedback for easier orientation and faster reactions. The handle is designed to provide a powerful grip, long lasting comfort and reduced fatigue. It creates an ideal connection between hand and paddle.
ANTI TWIST SYSTEM: Our new Anti Twist System, with its channel on the extension and a matching cleat system, puts an end to using additional forces whilst locking your adjustable system. It ensures that the handle and blade are always lined up correctly. Paddle with confidence - your shaft and handle won't move! Our adjustable models are now all equipped with Anti Twist System.
OPTIMIZED SHAFT DIAMETER: Our new high carbon-composite shafts have been refined for the perfect balance of weight, strength and flex-behavior. The reduced 26 mm shaft ensures a much more comfortable grip and less fatigue. It also delivers excellent performance, very low weight, and a near-zero failure rate.
ADJUSTABLE 3 PIECE SYSTEM: For easiest transportation - measures only 91 cm when fully detached. Provides extra flexibility to adjust the paddle length for different body heights, boards and conditions.
