- Smooth back face and thin ABS reinforced blade edges allows for a quieter catch and effortless exit of the stroke.
- Optimized blade-to-shaft offset at 12 degrees, allows for a more vertical blade position. Keeping you in the power phase longer and helping to clean up your exit.

- Full sized blades are and ideal fit for larger, well-conditioned paddlers.
- Optimized flex and strength. Choose our carbon straight in standard or Small Fit or our Bent shaft.
