What we liked
- + Listing describes a 100% carbon fiber shaft, ovalized where the hands go, for a light feel on long trips.
- + Patented Posi-Lok ferrule allows blade offset changes in 15-degree increments, per the listing.
- + Oversized 102.5 sq in blade is described as giving a smoother forward stroke with less flutter.
Trade-offs
- - Priced near $185, a premium spare compared with most paddles in this guide.
- - This listing is the 2-piece 210 cm version, so the spare does not break down into 4 pieces for compact storage.
