High performance. Total priority to lightness and rowing pace. A top-of-the-range paddle which, thanks to its dynamic qualities and its versatile shape with record weight, works as well in surfing as in racing. The 7″ model is our size suitable for SUP riders under 75/80 kg, and those looking to increase their rowing pace.

Introduction

The blade The shape of the blade is very fast, both at rowing acceleration; and in surfing where it glides wonderfully thanks to its convex upper surface at the tip. When paddling, the outline is powerful at the head of the profile. The intrado is flat with a slight V minimizing water catch, but the rocker of this blade is very curved at the head. The catch is excellent. It’s a paddle that accelerates really hard, from the first paddle stroke. It keeps a small volume to lean on when stopped. While surfing this blade skims the water fantastically due to its specific tip shape. Its very close to a boards shape that has great rocker. The water flumes quick and cleanly. You’ll never feel like you’re being pulled back when leaning on this paddle. There is no bouncing when skimming the water either. Besides this paddle has no ridges. The Extrado and Intrado are both very fluid. In fact, when the blade is submerged while surfing it maintains its glide. It offers an incredible amount of fluidity on both faces and along all its angles. This point is very important for surfing and doing moves when switching the paddle. This guarantees some high level surfing. In addition to its dynamic qualities, the strength of the paddle is reinforced by an ABS edge which protects it over the entire length of its perimeter exposed to shocks. The handle The handle is a mini ergonomic T, very thin, ideal for long sessions without losing precision. The sharp T allows great precision while negotiating the blade in the water or out. Exiting the water is cleaner because your high hand perfectly manipulates the blade angle. The ergonomics have been focused on the faces and the tips of the T. No oversized volume on this handle, the ergometry is discrete and efficient. The grip in your palm is well tolerated and well repartitioned. The ergonomics were specifically designed for intensive utilization. Prolonged contact discomfort is erased, the tips of the T were particularly conceived to not mark the contours of your hand and assure you optimal precision. No worrying about thumb pain after a long session. Ergonomic AND efficient. The shaft The Pro model shaft is round with an intermediate diameter that adds to its lightness. It is more supple than our classic carbon models all while keeping the best dynamic qualities.

Buying guide

For whom?

The shape of this paddle is intended for riders looking for a high-end performance paddle. The two sizes of blades allow each SUPer to choose the model corresponding to their needs.

What for?

This is the best performing paddle in the range, it is powerful yet lightweight. It works just as well in surfing as it does in racing.

What size Carbon Pro paddle?

Even if anything is possible, let’s point out the main uses:

The Carbon Pro 7” paddle

Size suitable for SUPers under 75/80 kg or to increase the paddling pace.

The Carbon Pro 8″ paddle

Size suitable for SUPers over 75/80 kg.

What quiver?

This paddle goes hand in hand with a rigid or inflatable SUP from our range.

Think about your personal equipment for your comfort with the right wetsuit, water, energy bars … and therefore the dry bag. But also and above all think about your safety because on this subject it is better to have too many resources than not enough (mirror, lights, tow line, survival blanket, etc.).

Delivery

Delivery delay

We indicate a preparation and shipping time of 3 working days. In reality, the majority of orders are shipped within 24/48 hours.

The delivery time, i.e. delivery time of the package to your home, then depends on the delivery location and the carrier.

We work with reliable and efficient carriers. 99% of shipments go perfectly and quickly. In the case of the remaining 1%, rest assured that we will do what is necessary with the carrier.

For Europe, delivery times vary from 3 to 6 working days, depending on the country of destination.

For the rest of the world, delivery times depend on transit time and customs clearance time. This delay depends on customs and can last from a few days to a few weeks depending on the destination and seasonality.
