This refined, low-angle paddle is nicely matched to today's sea kayaks. Design is easy on the shoulders and wrists, helping you cover serious mileage. Combination of carbon shaft and fiberglass-reinforced nylon blades delivers a high strength-to-weight ratio; slight shaft flex gives paddling comfort. Smooth, flutter-free bite and pull with an asymmetrical dihedral blade face optimized for the low-angle paddling style. Turn Lock Coupler (TLC) ferrule system makes adjusting your paddle easy; simply set the feather angle and rotate the coupler to tighten. Feathering is adjustable in the following increments: 0/30/45/60 degrees (right or left). Comes with rubber drip rings to keep water away from hands and lap. Two-piece design breaks down for easy storage and transport.
