Key features

✓ 632 cm² blade area: a balanced choice for beginners and advanced paddlers.

✓ 3.23 cm diameter straight fiberglass shaft: for comfortable and precise control.

✓ Three-position joint: 0° or 45° angle, suited to left and right hand.

Asymmetric fiberglass-reinforced ABS blade
High-density ABS plastic reinforced with fiberglass makes the blade light, durable and practically resistant to ordinary impacts. The asymmetric shape helps transfer power to the water efficiently and limits blade flutter during the stroke.

Adjustable blade angle
The three-position joint lets you choose a neutral 0° angle or a 45° angle to the left or right. The paddle can be set up for your dominant hand and paddling technique. A push-button joint lets you quickly break the paddle down into two pieces.

Lightweight fiberglass shaft
The straight 3.23 cm diameter shaft gives enough flex for comfortable paddling, yet stays strong and easy to handle. For the 220 cm version the manufacturer states a weight of 1.077 kg; the actual weight of the 230 cm version may differ slightly.

After paddling in sand, mud or salt water, the paddle should be taken apart, the joint rinsed thoroughly with warm water and dried before reassembly. This protects the precision joint and keeps the angle adjustment smooth.
