Overview
Built for low-angle paddling on flatwater, this paddle suits hunters and expedition travelers covering long distances by river or along the coast. Its 4-piece construction and T-700 carbon shaft make it easy to pack for remote trips, while the 28-ounce weight keeps the carry load down. The fiberglass blades use Lam-Lok technology, a design intended to help extend blade life during regular use. With a 220 cm length and 96 sq. in. blade area, it is aimed at efficient forward travel rather than high-angle power strokes.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for low-angle paddling, so it may not be the right fit for paddlers who prefer a higher-angle stroke style.
- The 4-piece design improves packability, but it also means more sections to assemble and manage before getting on the water.
- At 220 cm, this is a fixed-length paddle, so fit depends on matching the length to your boat and paddling setup.
- The fiberglass blades and carbon shaft reflect a lightweight, expedition-oriented build, which may be more specialized than a general-purpose paddle.
