The weight savings of a full carbon paddle reinforced with Edgegard protection so you can rely on this paddle for your long-distance flatwater trips.

The paddle is a "cosmetic second", meaning the entire paddle is 100% structurally sound, but the finish will have slight cosmetic imperfections. All paddle components (shaft, blades, and ferrule) are all structurally first quality parts that meet or surpass all benchmark testing. Standard imperfections can be found in the blades or shafts and could include porosity, streaking, scratches, misplaced/crooked graphics, discolored material, or inconsistencies in the laminated finish.
