Description

Level up your game with the most innovative paddle in whitewater. Experience comfortable control and unmatched durability with Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology to keep your Aerial Minor Carbon performing at maximum power—for the long-haul. Quickly adapt to paddling conditions with 5 cm of adjustable length and infinite offset angles.

ABOUT LAM-LOK™ US Patent Pending

  • Double down on edge protection with innovative Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology
  • Lam-Lok™ mechanically bonds the laminated blade layers together with over 33 feet of an aramid thread around the most vulnerable parts of the blades, dramatically extending the life of your paddle
  • Protects blade edges by resisting delamination, impact and abrasion
  • Lam-Lok™ is 5-10x more effective at fighting delamination than blades without it

ABOUT THE BLADES

  • Aerial Minor blade size best suited for small to medium stature paddlers or those looking to maximize efficiency when running rivers Wide, flattened foam spine simulates performance qualities of both a foil blade and a compression-molded carbon blade
  • Reinforced 100% carbon blade peg insert maximizes blade-to-shaft joint strength while matching the stiffness/flex balance of the entire paddle. Benefit from built-in durability
  • Smooth transition from blade to shaft. No sharp edges to scrape hands or extra material to add friction in the water

ABOUT THE SHAFT

  • 100% carbon construction optimized for a stiffness/flex balance between that of traditional carbon and fiberglass shafts to ease strain on shoulders
  • High-tech, spread tow carbon weave increases the mechanical properties of the material (strength, stiffness, impact resistance) while reducing weight
  • Ergonomic grip shape designed to match the natural shape of a closed hand
  • Extra-long grip sections allow flexibility for hand placement to fit a greater number of shoulder widths and paddler preferences
  • Tactile grip coating applied to shaft to help get a better hold–and it won’t destroy paddler calluses, to boot
  • Designed for hand placement in line with blades
  • Two-piece breakdown with Versa-Lok™ ferrule

ABOUT THE VERSA-LOK™ FERRULE

  • Versa-Lok™ allows 5 cm of adjustable length and infinite offset angles. Adjust on the fly to confidently navigate tight passages or run long stretches with your ideal paddle fit
  • Beefed up Versa-Lok™ to meet the rigors of whitewater paddling. Custom blended nylon ferrule material with very high fiberglass content for strength
  • Secure, tight locked connection that grips onto the 100% carbon ferrule insert
  • Ferrule insert extends extra far into the shaft, matching the stiffness/flex balance of the entire paddle.
  • Engineered to feel like paddling a one-piece with the versatility of a two-piece
