Recommended Uses

High Angle paddling is typically a more aggressive style of paddling with a faster cadence and a larger variety of strokes being used on each paddle outing. The high angle designs have short wide blades for a powerful catch and stroke with a slight dihedral for smooth linking strokes.

Lumpy Water paddling is paddling in adverse conditions that include deep water waves, current and wind-blown confused water of all sizes. Exposure to steep, dumping waves against the shoreline is limited and carried out with studied expertise.

Paddlers who are looking to paddle for fitness or race their kayaks are looking for the best energy transfer (stiffness) and lightest swing weight in a paddle.
